This thread reminds me of an advertising campaign that Caswell-Massey ran several years ago. Caswell-Massey is a fragrance and perfume company that was founded in 1752, the first in the colonies. George WAshington was a regular customere, opting for the Number 6 cologne, which they still sell. So they ran an ad that read “Smell like George Washington” > **[Makes Scents - Smell like George Washington! Number Six...](https://www.facebook.com/makesscentscomo/posts/smell-like-george-washington-number-six-by-caswell-massey-since-1752-presidentia/10156817293684895/)** > > Smell like George Washington! Number Six by Caswell- Massey. Since 1752. > > \#presidentialscent #georgewashington #since1752 #shoplocalcomo #since1972... Given my druthers, I’d go with George Washington over Trump, regardless of how their respective products smelled. Just on general principles. I brought this up sixteen years ago: > [@I don't WANT to smell like Paris!](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-dont-want-to-smell-like-paris/343521/11): > > There used to be an ad for Caswell-Massey colognes that had, in big bold type: Smell like George Washington! Our first pres. was a customer at C-M (which has old roots), and always ordered the same fragrance, for which they still have the recipe (or so their advertising states), so you apparently really could smell like the big GW. I note that, if this is all on the level, he actually used the stuff, and didn’t endorse it. That places him way above Paris, britney, and company. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-does-trump-smell-like/974000)._
