About This Perfume
Kahwa by Boadicea the Victorious is a Aromatic Green fragrance for women and men. Kahwa was launched in 2021. The nose behind this fragrance is Christian Provenzano. Top notes are Cardamom, Eucalyptus, Bay Leaf, Ginger, Clove and Saffron; middle notes are Coffee, Neroli, Jasmine Sambac and Bulgarian Rose; base notes are Amber, Oakmoss, Cedar, Cambodian Oud and Patchouli. Kahwa is a unique fragrance that sits perfectly within the Boadicea portfolio and no expense has been spared. Long lasting and purposely divisive, it is an uplifting eau de parfum driven by cardamom that will simultaneously relax and stimulate the senses. The fragrance opening bursts with aromatic delights; ginger and eucalyptus surge, swiftly joined by bay leaf and the subtle spice of saffron, which is then engulfed by the cardamom. Kahwa’s rolling floral heart is rich with swooning notes of rose, sambac jasmine and neroli as it trumpets excess in every way! The base of Kahwa is steadfast, rooted with Cambodian Oud and flanked by soft amber and moss. A true fragrance of the NOW.

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.
