Boadicea the Victorious Rebellious is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Rebellious opens with Bergamot, Cinnamon, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Suede, Musk, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Boadicea the Victorious's Rebellious carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

A divisive one, this. Boadicea's 'Rebellious' is a polarising saffron-heavy scent that some adore for its smooth blend and luxurious feel, while others find it too subtle, too feminine, or just a bit… 'meh'. Definitely not for everyone, but a gem for those who get it.

About

Rebellious kicks off with a warm, spiced overture of saffron and cinnamon, brightened ever so slightly by bergamot. As it settles, a floral heart emerges, with rose and violet softening into a powdery embrace, underpinned by the balsamic depth of labdanum. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of creamy sandalwood, soft suede, earthy patchouli, and a clean, musky finish, creating a refined yet intriguing aura.
