Bortnikoff Victoria is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Maxim Bortnikov. Victoria opens with Orange Blossom, Lavender, Elemi, and Apple, settles into a heart of Neroli, Oud, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Bortnikoff's Victoria carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Victoria is a big, rich extrait with oud, rose and a deep resinous base. Lavender and blackcurrant lift the opening, jasmine and ylang-ylang fill the heart, and oakmoss, benzoin and labdanum make it dense. Opulent and not for the timid.

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.

About

Victoria Extrait de Parfum is a complex composition. The opening combines lavender, elemi, orange blossom, apple and blackcurrant, giving a bright, herbal and fruity lift. The heart is rich with oud, jasmine, ambrette, rose, ylang-ylang, neroli and pepper, a mix of dark wood, white flowers and spice. The base uses oakmoss, patchouli, sandalwood, benzoin, amber and labdanum for a deep, resinous and mossy finish. It is an opulent, sophisticated and mysterious scent.
