Below Deck Star Charts New Course with Signature Scent

Below Deck Down Under's Captain Jason Chambers is steering into new waters with his upcoming fragrance "Captain J" - a scent he claims captures his essence from deck to shore. For the rugged sailing star, it's a passion project years in the making.

The gender-neutral perfume evolved from Chambers' long-standing practice of crafting essential oil blends to energize his film crew during long shooting days. His is a simple mix of tea tree, eucalyptus, and sandalwood oils in mineral water.

The maritime-inspired fragrance aims to bottle the authentic yacht experience, featuring notes of sea salt and rope alongside earthy undertones. "It's got that boat feel...but it's also the sand in your feet," Chambers explained in a recent interview. The scent profile is designed to transport wearers to sun-drenched decks and crystal waters, with hints of natural elements like rushing waterfalls mixed in.

After six months in development, the project represents a significant departure from Chambers' DIY approach. The captain, who typically eschews traditional cologne for his essential oil blends, is now working with professional perfumers using what he describes as cutting-edge technology.

While launch date and pricing remain under wraps, this foray into fragrance marks an unexpected pivot for the single dad and yacht captain. The question remains: will his followers be eager to smell like a day at sea with Captain J?
