Britannia by Boadicea The Victorious is a spiced, leathery scent with plenty of confidence to it. Amber, cardamom and coriander open it warm and faintly spiced. Leather and ambergris take over the base, giving it a dry, slightly salty depth, with a woody edge running underneath. Launched in 2018, it suits men and women who like a bit of bravado rather than shy restraint. Cooler months suit it best, from autumn into winter, at night and in the evening. Voters mostly land on long-lasting for its staying power, with the sillage vote called strong as well, so it holds its own after dark. A 10ml decant lets you wear it through a stretch of colder nights before you decide on the rest.

Its perfumes are warm, spiced and resinous: amber, labdanum, patchouli and oud form the core, with saffron, leather and guaiac wood adding weight. Blue Sapphire is the place to start, aromatic herbs over oud. Valiant is brighter, citrus and white flowers on wood, and Bodacious turns sweet with cherry and warm spice. Christian Provenzano is the perfumer credited on the range here. Most of the line is unisex, and a few lean masculine.
