Boadicea the Victorious Lunar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Christian Provenzano. Lunar opens with Redcurrant Leaf, Bergamot, Birch, and Ylang-Ylang, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Tuberose, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Boadicea the Victorious's Lunar carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

A divisive beast, Lunar is one of those 'love it or hate it' scents that sticks around. If you're a patchouli fiend who likes a dark, potent fragrance with some serious oomph, this could be your next signature. For others, it's a bit much.

About

Lunar opens with a thick, almost boozy ylang-ylang and the sharp, fruity edge of redcurrant leaf, spiced up by a hint of ginger. The heart deepens into a rich white floral bouquet of jasmine and tuberose, warmed by cinnamon and the unique resinous quality of copaiba balm. It settles into a powerful, earthy base of patchouli and vetiver, smoothed by creamy sandalwood, vanilla, and a balsamic amber, with a dark, smoky waft of incense.
