BEAUFORT LONDON CAPE WRATH Eau de Parfum

The Wild Edge of Britain – Wind, Sea + Untamed Nature

BEAUFORT LONDON CAPE WRATH Eau de Parfum takes its name from the dramatic stretch of coastline at the north-westernmost tip of Britain. This remote landmark, derived from the Old Norse word for “turning point,” has for centuries been a guiding mark for sailors navigating the coast. Yet its treacherous waters have claimed countless vessels. This tension between orientation and destruction, guidance and peril, lies at the heart of the fragrance – a composition that captures the raw drama of land and sea.

Character – Powerful, Wild, Windswept

CAPE WRATH is not a gentle scent but a bold expression of nature’s unrestrained force. It conveys the sense of waves colliding with cliffs, of gales roaring across open water, of beauty that is both brutal and sublime.

The Opening – Spice + Green Bitterness

The fragrance begins with the sharp fire of pink pepper, bringing a bright piquancy. Elemi resin adds a luminous, resinous freshness, while galbanum introduces its characteristic bitter-green sharpness, evoking wild, untamed vegetation along the cliffside. Angelica root grounds the opening with earthy, herbal depth – the first breath of a windswept shore.

The Heart – Resins + Florals in Tension

At its heart, frankincense and mastic resin create a balsamic density, a deep and meditative core that feels timeless and raw. Balanced against these darker tones, a streak of geranium brings a floral brightness – a fleeting glimmer of light amid the storm of resins, like a break in the clouds.

The Base – Sea, Earth + Salted Depth

The foundation of CAPE WRATH is where the sea truly speaks. Ambergris delivers its unique marine, animalic, ambered resonance – smooth, salty, alive with ocean memory. Vetiver contributes earthy, smoky facets, anchoring the fragrance with weight and persistence. Ambrette introduces a soft musky transparency, while oakmoss and seaweed fold in mineral, saline undertones that vividly recall the coastline itself. The base is lasting, powerful, and elemental – like the cliffs that stand against centuries of tide and tempest.

The Perfumer – Euan McCall

The nose behind CAPE WRATH is Euan McCall, a Scottish perfumer recognized for his uncompromising, artistic style. McCall is also the founder of Jorum Studio, based in Edinburgh, where he creates experimental, poetic niche fragrances crafted entirely in-house. His work bridges the rugged drama of BeauFort London with the lyrical artistry of Jorum Studio. At scent amor, you can explore both facets of McCall’s creativity – from the maritime-dark power of BeauFort to the avant-garde poetics of Jorum Studio.
