Boadicea the Victorious Fortuitous is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Fortuitous opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Almond, and Cherry, settles into a heart of Angelica, Rose, Jasmine, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Musk, Powdery, Amber, and Cedar. Boadicea the Victorious's Fortuitous carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive affair for your wallet, not your nose. Expect a gorgeous, creamy woody-amber with a cherry-almond twist, but don't expect groundbreaking originality - a few folks reckon it's a bit too 'inspired' by others. Still, a crowd-pleaser for those who love that sweet, refined vibe and don't mind the price tag.

It's too opulent for active wear and might be a touch much for a conservative office, though it's certainly adaptable for casual evenings.

About

Opens with a luscious, creamy almond and coconut hug, brightened by a fleeting spark of cherry and citrus. As it settles, a soft, powdery rose and jasmine emerge, supported by aromatic fir and bay leaf for a touch of refined greenery. The drydown is a warm, enveloping cloud of amber, musk, and vanilla, underpinned by the smooth woodiness of sandalwood and cedar with a persistent powdery sweetness.
