Amber Sapphire

Boadicea the Victorious Amber Sapphire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Amber Sapphire opens with Rum, Redcurrant Leaf, Cinnamon, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Magnolia, and Mastic, and dries down to a base of Cashmeran. Boadicea the Victorious's Amber Sapphire carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper grower, divisive as hell with some finding its jasmine-oud combo a real turn-off, but for others, it's a holy grail amber. Definitely not a blind buy - sample first, 'cause you'll either love Amber Sapphire or loathe it.

Casual

Its bold woody and aromatic accords, combined with good longevity and moderate projection, make it a bit much for the office. However, it excels in date and formal settings where its sophisticated warmth can truly shine without overpowering. It's a bit too heavy for casual daytime wear or anything active.

About

Amber Sapphire opens with a boozy, spiced kick of rum and cinnamon, quickly joined by the sharp tang of redcurrant leaf and a hint of bergamot to lift it. The heart blooms into a floral bouquet of rose, jasmine, and magnolia, tempered by the resinous whisper of mastic. It settles into a warm, powdery, and woody base of cashmeran, giving it a comforting, yet luxurious skin-scent feel. The ever-present woody and aromatic accords weave through each stage, creating a complex and evolving scent profile.
