Perfume Parlour Saintly B is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Saintly B opens with Cardamom and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Cedar and Rose, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Perfume Parlour's Saintly B carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Saintly B recreates Boadicea the Victorious Angelic, the herbaceous woody-aromatic niche scent. It captures the musky clary-sage and green cardamom opening over that vetiver-patchouli-cedar base, but the dupe flattens the original's blended refinement and wears closer; since Angelic itself is a light performer, the dupe's skin-near longevity feels close to type.

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

Saintly B opens herbal and slightly green with musky clary sage and the spicy lift of cardamom, channelling the original's holy-garden vibe. A soft rosy-woody heart bridges into the composition's core: an earthy, well-blended base of vetiver, patchouli, cedar, sandalwood and amber that reads woody-spicy and grounded. Against Boadicea's Angelic, this dupe gets the aromatic-woody DNA right and keeps the calm, herbaceous character, but the original's polished blend and subtle amber shimmer are a little smoothed over here, leaving a more linear, skin-close wear. Because Angelic itself projects lightly, the dupe's modest longevity feels true to the source. It is a versatile, grounded unisex scent - clean enough for the office, woody enough for evenings - delivering the spirit of the niche original at a budget price.
