The story behind the bottle.
The King by Boadicea the Victorious is a majestic fragrance that embodies regal opulence and lasting luxury, drawing inspiration from quintessentially British heritage. The top notes of plum, saffron, rum, cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves create an immediate sense of warmth and spice, while the heart notes of immortelle, rose, geranium, and heliotrope bring a lush floral essence to the composition. The base notes of tobacco, incense, leather, vanilla, labdanum, castoreum, oakmoss, patchouli, amber, and musk ground the fragrance with an earthy depth that is both rich and enduring.
Given its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, one or two sprays are sufficient to make an impression. The fragrance blooms best close to the skin, so apply directly on pulse points for a more intimate experience. It’s particularly suited for evenings when you want a scent that lingers and tells a story.
