THE LEGEND
A warrior queen, wearing a golden torc, leads her Iceni army into battle, the embodiment of courage and determination. Iconic and resolute, she raises her face to the prevailing breezes, catching the unmistakable scent of victory. Her passion is irrepressible, her thirst for justice pervades everything, her drive for success is unmatched. These are the qualities captured in the scents of Boadicea the Victorious, genderless fragrances that celebrate timeless British craftsmanship, creativity, and originality.

FRAGRANCE DESCRIPTION
As a high-end collection, Boadicea is full of references to royalty, lineage and power, and it all harks back to Boadicea, the warrior queen of the Iceni who rebelled against the Roman army.

Every perfume collection has fragrances that perhaps go unnoticed, making them somehow more satisfying and pleasant to rediscover. Monarch is a prime example. A warm and enveloping fragrance, discreet, with layers of resins, woods, oud, spices, leather, floral notes, and a splendid opening of ripe red berries, artemisia, black tea, and cypress.

The heart flowers are a splendid composition of intoxicating roses and jasmine, enhanced by the fresher, pepperier notes of freesia and creamy lily of the valley. Lust meets purity, expertly enhanced by pink pepper, cardamom, and a touch of cinnamon.

Monarch was inspired by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, sadly no longer with us. Her unwavering sense of duty, her fortitude, and her dedication to the kingdom and her subjects. It's always striking that someone as renowned as the Queen was also a huge enigma. It's a near-impossible task to appease those who demand access, transparency, and modernization, while the most ardent royalists see her and her family as an extension of their own, projecting their lives, loves, and losses onto a royal family that by its very nature remains inscrutable and bound by centuries of tradition.

Monarch is in many ways a melancholy fragrance, inevitably tinged with our personal ties. Even the most vocal anti-monarchy voices were momentarily silenced. A widow wept. The perfume's composition expresses detachment, strength, and accessibility, echoing the Iceni Queen Boadicea, who challenged Roman rule after her husband's death and the shocking treatment meted out to herself and her daughters.

Monarch's floral notes are elegant and gentle; it's not a perfume that dominates the surrounding air, yet it has a beautiful presence: black tea and red berries are flavored with dry citrus notes and the oily pine and rosemary scent of cypress. Freesia and lily of the valley are imaginary recreations in perfumery, and in Monarch, high-definition fragrance technology has produced exceptionally elegant interpretations of these nostalgic flowers. Lily of the valley was the late queen's favorite flower, an important part of her coronation bouquet, and Charles III greeted his beloved mother with a wreath of flowers. Pink pepper is not a true pepper, but it adds a distinctive spicy note to perfumes and pairs particularly well with white floral notes.

Monarch has a classic Boadicean base of woods, resins, oud, and vanilla with earthy patchouli and soft leather notes. It's worn on the skin, discreetly exuding a heavenly floral character, yet at times assertive, with the duo of red fruits and spiced tea with cardamom and cinnamon enhancing the purity of the central florals and the quiet sensuality of oud wood.
