Absent Presence is a 2023 release from British perfume house Beaufort London, composed as part of the Revenants Collection. Beaufort's fragrances are built on "harnessing the many olfactory facets of smoke to create singular fragrance that seeks to evoke memories, both real or apparitional." This Woody fragrance has an aromatic profile of woody, aromatic, green, fresh spicy, powdery, leather, earthy, warm spicy, citrus, and musky accords. Comprising the highest level of natural ingredients of any BeauFort fragrance, Absent Presence explores its themes with typically ‘overdosed’ concentrations of violet leaf absolute, vetiver bourbon oil, smoky leather and black pepper oil. As with all the Revenants family, Absent Presence is presented as 30% Eau De Parfum.

In his Sonnet sequence ‘Astrophel and Stella’ Sidney develops and captures the essence of a haunting… the presence of one that is always felt but never seen. ‘Now I, wit-beaten long by hardest fate, So dull am, that I cannot look into The ground of this fierce love and lovely hate, Then some good body tell me how I do, Whose presence absence, absent presence is; Blesst in my curse, and cursed in my bliss.’" Fragrance Vault is an official stockist of BeauFort.
