Greetings, Kacper Michajlow!

> Basically this doesn't work for me:
> mkdir test
> mkdir test/test
> chmod 755 test/test

> Additional top level directory after creating have drwx---r-x, and

We need more data points to analyze the issue.
Where this directory located? Inside Cygwin root or outside it?
What are the full (getfacl/icacls) permissions on the current directory?
What are full resulting permissions on the created directories?
What kind of the account you are using? Local account or (God forbid!)
Microsoft account?
