The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019 by Boadicea the Victorious, Salacious is a fragrance that unabashedly indulges in its earthy and animalistic qualities. The composition begins with cardamom, providing an aromatic zest before transitioning to pine tree for a fresh yet woody middle note. Vetiver, leather, patchouli, and musk form the base, creating an intoxicating blend that is both warm and spicy. Boadicea the Victorious describes Salacious as arousing from beginning to end, invoking unsolicited desire with its earthy and animalistic character. The inclusion of armoise, cypress, ginger, and absynthe adds a layer of complexity, making it a compelling scent for those who embrace their more wanton side.
Apply this fragrance sparingly as it has a strong presence that builds on skin over time. One or two sprays are sufficient to capture its earthy and animalistic qualities without overpowering. It pairs well with cooler evenings when you want to evoke a sense of sensuality.
