Boadicea The Victorious Bestsellers Gift Set

The Bestsellers Gift Set from Boadicea The Victorious gathers four 10 ml eau de parfum travel sprays of the house's most-requested fragrances. At 10 ml each these are real bottles rather than dab vials, enough to wear a scent properly for a couple of weeks before deciding.

What's inside

Four 10 ml sprays in a crafted presentation box: Blue Sapphire, lemon and saffron over rose and jasmine with oud, patchouli and amber underneath; Complex 2020, a dry sage and basil opening turning to olibanum and violet before a leather, oud and musk base; Valiant, bright with ylang-ylang, mandarin and petitgrain over orange blossom and neroli, finishing on vanilla, tonka and sandalwood; and Glorious, a fruity opening of raspberry, pineapple and blackcurrant with cardamom, settling into guaiac wood, cedar, moss and amber.

About the house

Boadicea The Victorious is a British luxury niche house, founded in London in 2008 and named after Boudica, the warrior queen of the Iceni. Everything is eau de parfum concentration, presented in heavy Celtic-inspired glass finished with a pewter collar and a coloured cabochon jewel. The bottles are as much of the point as the juice, which is why the travel format sells the way it does.

Who it suits

A good gift, and a sensible way to sample a house whose full bottles start well above $200. Browse the rest of the Boadicea collection at Redolia, or come smell them at our Somerville scent bar.
