Comfortable and cheerful, Lignum Vitae by Beaufort has a light gourmand feel with bit of caramel and nuts in the background. An exciting combination with lime and wood that also give this fragrance a fresh touch. Part of the Come Hell or High Water Collection, Lignum Vitae is inspired by the innovative use of materials that allowed 18th-century clockmakers to create the first accurate nautical chronometers.
It combines elements of wood, metal and salt to create a unique perfume. By also combining and using unexpected and exotic raw materials, Lignum Vitae celebrates the innovative spirit that allowed sailors to sail around the world safely and without wasting time.

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.
