About This Perfume
Bodacious by Boadicea the Victorious is a Oriental Vanilla fragrance for women and men. Bodacious was launched in 2021. The nose behind this fragrance is Christian Provenzano. Top notes are Cherry, Cognac, Almond and Clove; middle notes are Heliotrope, Moroccan Rose and Jasmine Sambac; base notes are Tobacco, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Amber, Sandalwood, Musk and Vetiver. Bodacious Eau de Parfum is an assault on the senses, beguiling and bamboozling, excellent at every turn. Rich cherry and cognac mingle with warm and luxurious delight, as the cherries sweetness is tempered with clove and pepper, providing a mature and well rounded impression. Its heart is smooth with an air of mystery lingering as the accords take us on a journey of Eastern delight. Bodacious’ base has a host of gourmand attributes, the tonka beans swoon over the backdrop of vanilla, calmed with the complex earthy aromas of vetiver and sandalwood.

The verdict
Best for
Boadicea the Victorious is a British ultra-niche house named for the ancient Iceni queen, positioned firmly at the luxury tier. The range is overwhelmingly unisex (36 of 40) and spans woody (11 pieces), fresh (9), gourmand (8), warm amber (3) and floral (3). Top accords are woody, floral, spicy, sweet and oriental. Prices sit in a serious range, about $193 up to $1,750, with average pricing pegged to the collector tier. Standout live picks: Blue Sapphire Supercharged (smoky leather, oud, and citrus sparkle in the air), 1907 (spiced cinnamon sugar warmed by tobacco smoke), Opulence (smoky plum leather warmed with saffron), plus other pieces holding at the 4.4+/5 mark. If you're building a collection at the British-niche luxury end alongside houses like Amouage and Roja, Boadicea is the peer-tier candidate.
