The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2026, Misbah by Boadicea the Victorious is a warm and spicy oriental woody fragrance created by Julie Lerendu. The composition opens with rum and pimento, creating an immediate sense of depth and warmth that is enhanced by black pepper and rhubarb. As it settles, cinnamon and saffron add a rich, powdery layer, while orris and galbanum provide subtle floral undertones. The base notes of bourbon vanilla, sandalwood, patchouli, cashmeran, cedarwood, vetiver, and cypress create a lasting warmth that is both comforting and complex.

How to wear it

Given its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, Misbah is best applied sparingly at first. Allow it to build on your skin over time rather than overwhelming with too much initially. It pairs particularly well for evening wear or cooler evenings when you want a scent that lingers.
