Rake & Ruin was inspired by the paintings of William Hogarth, depicting the moral fall in the UK in the Georgian times, called ‘A Rake’s Progress’. Exactly this feelings is what BeauFort London tries to capture, the scents of a dark stuffy bar, full of sweaty bodies and booze.
Rake & Ruin is an eau de parfum with the unusual high concentration of 30% oil. So beware of another forceful creation!

Niche perfume brand BeauFort London is founded by musician Leo Crabtree (drummer in the famous band The Prodigy). Each BeauFort fragrance has its own powerful character, often with a dark smoky character. Leo found the inspiration for his fragrances in the rich naval history of the United Kingdom. But not only the nice heroic parts of these stories are depicted, also the warfare (gunpowder, rum and blood), trade and explorations found their way into the fragrances. He designed the fragrances in close collaboration with Julie Marlowe, Julie Dunkley and Pia Long.
Woody
Woody fragrances are full of character and indeed very woodsy. They can be warm, soothing and creamy, but also dry and spicy. Key ingredients are cedar wood, patchouli, sandalwood and/or vetiver. Oudh (agarwood), Palo Santo and guaiac wood have also joined the perfumer's palet, just like the fantastic synthetics such as Javanol or Iso-E-Super.
