Boadicea the Victorious Regal is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2010, created by Christian Provenzano. Regal opens with Green Notes, Geranium, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Violet, and Hedione, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Boadicea the Victorious's Regal carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Regal is a rose and oud beast (even without oud in the notes), a divisive scent that some swoon over for its quality and others dismiss as a loud, generic Arab fragrance. It's not subtle, but it is undeniably regal.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Regal's strong sillage and impressive longevity make it less suitable for office wear, where it might overwhelm. It's a powerhouse, best reserved for evenings out, formal events, or date nights where its luxurious character can shine.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opening with a sharp, green geranium and bright saffron, Regal quickly blossoms into a dominant, dark rose heart, bolstered by violet and jasmine. This intense floral core eventually settles into a rich, woody-amber base, where creamy sandalwood and cedar are deepened by earthy patchouli and musk, with a lingering smoky depth that might surprise you hours later.
