To commemorate a decade of Fathom V, Beaufort has produced a limited edition ‘Directors Cut’ extrait version of the scent: the ‘big green beast’ retooled in an ultra-strong variant at a 150% higher oil inclusion.
This ‘extended’ version brings to life the more muted aspects of the original, heightening the spices and turning the flower shop plant stems aspect into a fallen forest of green. Incredibly powerful and extremely long-lasting. Each all-black bottle is individually numbered, with the edition running to only 1000 pieces worldwide. Each box contains a hand-signed note of authenticity.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is for close, atmospheric settings where a scent can feel almost physical in the air: a dim room, damp outerwear, cold skin and a quiet sense of intensity. It projects a green, marine darkness that reads more like presence than polish.
How to wear
Best worn in cool to cold weather, where its salt, cedar and vetiver can stay crisp without collapsing into heaviness. Use a light hand: one to three sprays are enough, as the extrait concentration gives strong diffusion and very long wear, especially on fabric and in still air.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like green aquatics with depth, structure and a darker edge rather than airy freshness. It will appeal to those drawn to mossy woods, salty mineral notes, subtle spice and fragrances that feel moody, textured and unusually persistent.

The nose
Julie Marlowe. Marlowe is the nose behind Fathom V and its Director’s Cut, working in a style that balances clarity with tension: green facets, marine chill, floral haze and earthy depth. Her compositions for BeauFort tend to feel architectural and atmospheric, with a strong sense of place rather than decorative prettiness. On Fathom V Director’s Cut, she revisits the original formula in extrait form, pushing the muted green and spicy elements forward while preserving the scent’s aquatic core. The result is a denser, more forceful interpretation that shows her interest in contrast, texture and long-form development on skin.
Collaborators
BeauFort founder Leo Crabtree shaped the house’s nautical, memory-driven brief and the broader creative world around the fragrance, while Julie Marlowe translated that vision into the scent itself and reworked it for this limited extrait edition.
Beaufort’s story
BeauFort London builds fragrances around Britain’s maritime history and a taste for contrast: smoke and salt, moss and spice, light and shadow, calm and violence. The house favors atmospheric compositions with a narrative edge, often evoking weather, depth and memory rather than polished conventional beauty.
Fathom V Director's Cut’s concept
Created to mark the tenth anniversary of the original Fathom V, Director’s Cut revisits the scent as an ultra-strong extrait with 150% higher oil inclusion. The edition is presented as a limited, hand-numbered release of 1,000 bottles, with the formula pushing the original’s green, aquatic and spicy facets into a denser, more forest-like register.
Extra info
The Director’s Cut edition was made in a run of 1,000 individually numbered bottles worldwide, each with a hand-signed note of authenticity. The fragrance is an extrait version of Fathom V, with a much higher oil concentration than the original.
