Origins of the Fragrance

First decanted in 1772, Number Six is more than a fragrance—it is America’s longest‑standing luxury ritual, preserved straight from Caswell‑Massey’s hand‑inked ledgers. Imagine a heritage signet cast in scent: bright citrus, rare spice, and stately woods layered with the quiet assurance of a cashmere overcoat. It slips effortlessly from a weekend jaunt to a black‑tie reception, leaving a trail that whispers provenance to anyone who passes through its aura.

During the 2018 restoration, a master perfumer—working by lamplight and white‑gloved precision—sourced only period‑faithful oils, safeguarding every nuance of the original composition. Today each small batch is blended on American soil, decanted into weighty, gilded glass, and sealed with the meticulous craftsmanship that crowned the very first bottle. Choose the travel atomizer for jet‑set interludes or enshrine the full crystal flacon upon your dresser; either way, one luxurious mist folds you into Caswell‑Massey’s storied lineage, carrying its legacy forward on your own skin.
