Delicate

Name: Delicate Eau de Parfum
Brand: Boadicea the Victorious

Boadicea the Victorious Delicate is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by John Stephen. Delicate opens with Clover, Grass, Bellflower, and Floral, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Woody, Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Cinnamon. Boadicea the Victorious's Delicate carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a wild ride. Forget the name, 'Delicate' is anything but - it's a bold, green floral with an unapologetically old-school character. You'll either adore its eccentric charm or recoil from its intensity; there’s no middle ground here. A truly divisive scent, for those who dare.

Date Casual

Its moderate to strong sillage and very good longevity make it a bit much for the office. The unique, powerful green-floral profile is better suited for a statement on a formal evening or a distinctive date night, rather than casual or athletic wear.

About

It opens with a sharp, almost jarring blend of raw grass and clover, underpinned by a vibrant bergamot that cuts through the earthy greenness. As it settles, a bouquet of narcissus, rose, and jasmine emerges, adding a rich, dense floral heart. The drydown reveals a classic mossy base, with oakmoss and sandalwood providing depth, spiced subtly with cinnamon, finishing in a surprisingly clean, if still robust, manner.
