Description
The focal point for the creations of Beaufort London is the naval history of Great Britain; the real part and an imagined and embellished part. Always with a dark and strange side, which is the fascinating thing about Beaufort London.
In 1751 the novelist Henry Fielding proclaimed that ‘Gin-shops are undoubtedly the Nurseries of all manner of Vice and Wickedness.’
To illustrate this decline in public morality, English artist William Hogarth published, between 1732 and 1734, eight canvases depicting “A Rake’s Progress.”
In “A Rake’s Progress,” Hogarth portrays Tom Rakewell’s decline due to society, prostitutes, and gambling.
Inspired by Hogarth’s Georgian London, Rake & Ruin, the second creation of BeauFort London’s Revenants collection, revives its libertine scenes.
Hogarth depicts the moral degeneration and misfortune of youth, often leading to poverty, madness, and death.
It revives the botanical ingredients of the drinks filling the cups, the dark woods of the floors they spilled on, and the libertine acts that ensued.
Potent Eau de Parfum with a 30% concentration of perfume.

Andres De Carlos Montoya (verified owner) –
Not for me. It is a totally personal matter and the brand is quality (I have tried others of this brand and they are of a great quality) but this one did not fit me.
It was too powerful, with a smoky smell and, indeed, as the description says, a very heavy tavern atmosphere.

Thank you very much Andres.
Best regards.
