Boadicea the Victorious Defender is a Parfum launched in 2024, created by Kamila Lelakova. Defender opens with Red Fruits, Cognac, Grapefruit, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Night-Blooming Jasmine, Orange Blossom, Myrrh, and Hay, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Amber, and Tonka Bean. Boadicea the Victorious's Defender carries a Statement verdict, an amber-led wear.

Defender is a divisive but ultimately luxurious honey-licorice bomb. Many find it exquisite and powerful, an intoxicating blend of boozy fruit and rich warmth, while others are put off by its sweetness or find it unoriginal. Definitely one to sample before you splash out.

With its significant sillage and rich, sweet, and boozy profile, Defender is best reserved for evening wear or special occasions where you want to make a statement. It's too opulent and potentially distracting for most office environments, though some reviewers found it suitable for a confident workday. Its luxury nature lends itself well to formal events and date nights.

About

Imagine a rich, syrupy honey infused with the warming kick of ginger and cognac, uplifted by a burst of red fruits and a curious whisper of licorice. As it settles, a sweet, resinous warmth emerges from myrrh, amber, and peru balsam, deepened by supple leather and tonka. This creates a dense, opulent aura, a buttery boozy confection that lasts for ages.
