Which Should You Buy?
Valiant is a masterpiece of a floral amber, though it's polarising. Many rave about its luxurious blend and exceptional quality, while others find it overpriced and unoriginal, smelling of "grandma's bathroom." Worth a sniff, if only to decide which camp you're in.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Boadicea The Victorious Valiant. Built around Grapefruit, Neroli, Orange, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Boadicea The Victorious Valiant.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent projection and distinct, luxurious aroma make it best suited for evenings and special events rather than the office. While some find it versatile enough for daily wear, its strength and cost generally reserve it for more impactful occasions.
Seasons
Best in spring and summer - the citrus, floral profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.
Occasions
Keep it for casual and daily - the citrus accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Woody, Sweet accords and Vanilla, Grapefruit notes
