Exotic

by John Stephen

Boadicea the Victorious Exotic is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by John Stephen. Exotic opens with Lavender and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Rose, Lily, and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Ambergris, Incense, and Frankincense. Boadicea the Victorious's Exotic carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

Exotic is a divisive one, sparking strong reactions from adoration to utter disdain. It's either an elegant and unique oriental delight or a dusty, musty mess. If you're after something that stands out, this might be your jam, but definitely try before you buy.

Office

Given its moderate sillage and lasting power, Exotic is a great choice for date nights and formal events, leaving a subtle, sophisticated impression. It's also suitable for office wear, but perhaps a bit too distinctive for high-stakes business meetings; its elegance allows it to bridge into casual-smart settings too.

About

Exotic kicks off with a fresh, aromatic hit of lavender and bergamot, quickly joined by a warm, spicy ginger. The heart gradually unfolds into a delicate lily and rose, which then melts into a rich, smoky base of ambergris and frankincense. Expect a balsamic, incense-laden dry down with a subtle floral whisper.
