BeauFort London Acrasia is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Julie Dunkley. Acrasia opens with Red Wine, Bergamot, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Geranium, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. BeauFort London's Acrasia carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a proper dark horse. For every person who's instantly repulsed by its boozy, metallic opening, there's another utterly captivated by its gothic romance once it settles. Definitely polarising, but undeniably unique.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Acrasia's strong opening and deep, balsamic character make it less suitable for casual or office wear, where it might overwhelm. It truly shines on a date or formal occasion, offering a sophisticated and unique olfactory statement, especially in cooler weather.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Acrasia bursts open with a shocking, zesty hit of red wine, lemon, and bergamot, which quickly softens into a rich, complex heart of rose, geranium, and spicy cinnamon. As it deepens, a mysterious incense note emerges, layered over a warm, earthy base of patchouli, amber, and vanilla, leaving a lingering, almost leathery impression. Think ancient castles and dark, velvety shadows.
