Boadicea the Victorious Almas is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Christian Provenzano. Almas opens with Cardamom, Saffron, Coriander, and Blackcurrant, and settles into a heart of Neroli, Rose, Jasmine, and Geranium. Boadicea the Victorious's Almas carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Almas by Boadicea the Victorious is a divisive one, beloved for its opulent rose-oud core with a juicy pineapple twist, yet criticised for not bringing anything new to the table at its hefty price point. It's a statement scent, but some say you can find similar for less.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with an unexpected bright burst of pineapple, spiced up by cardamom and saffron, settling quickly into a rich, aromatic heart of rose and jasmine. The drydown unveils a luxurious blend of warm oud and suede, with sweet amber and vanilla adding depth, making it undeniably regal and deeply sensual, lingering for ages on skin and clothes.
