The story behind the bottle.
Created by perfumer John Stephen for Boadicea the Victorious, The Exclusives Warrioress is a bold and commanding Oriental fragrance. With an enormous sillage and eternal longevity, it envelops you in layers of amber, leather, and woody notes that blend seamlessly into balsamic and animalic accords, creating a complex warmth. This scent embodies strength and resilience, making it a powerful statement for those who wear it.
With its enormous sillage, one generous spray is enough to make a statement. The base notes take time to bloom fully, so give it at least an hour before stepping out to let the rich layers develop on your skin.
