Which Should You Buy?
Silky Woods is a smooth, sophisticated vanilla that’s got the whole room talking - some rave about its luxurious depth, while a vocal minority find its leathery elements a bit too much. Definitely a try-before-you-buy situation, but a crowd-pleaser for many.
Ardour dupes Boadicea the Victorious' Ardent, a rich saffron-oud-vanilla built for maximum warmth. The saffron opening and oud-amber heart land close to the original, though the vanilla-musk base runs sweeter and more gourmand than Boadicea's drier, more resinous finish. A cosy, accessible amber-oud for anyone drawn to the genre.
