Spiteful August, hand-poured extraits from Orihuela Costa
Spiteful August is a small perfume house in Orihuela Costa, on the Costa Blanca in Spain, founded in 2025 by Scott Wolf and Ryan Fox. The house was formerly called FOX & WOLF, a name that won Best Luxury Candles in Spain in 2021, and it launched its perfumes on 29 June 2026. The name comes from the Latin augustus, majestic or worthy of reverence; the spiteful part, the house says, is its rebellion.
Wolf is a self-taught perfumer. He composes each scent and his partner refines it. Every bottle is blended and poured by hand in small batches, then left six weeks to macerate. They work with essential oils, natural resins and absolutes next to sharp modern aroma chemicals. Cárda took six months and seventeen changes to get right.
The Spiteful August studio and store at FOX & WOLF is in the Flamenca Beach shopping centre, Calle Niagara 63, Local 33, Orihuela Costa. It opens Monday from 10:00 to 15:00, and Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 to 15:00 and 17:00 to 22:00. A 50 ml extrait costs €140 or €160, and a set of three 5 ml samples costs €40, which comes back as credit on a first full bottle. Try Cárda first: it is the scent the house's lab diary follows from start to finish.
