Boadecia The Victorious Valiant

Valiant is a floral-citrus unisex fragrance from Boadicea the Victorious, released in 2013. A juicy opening of ylang-ylang, mandarin, petitgrain, orange and grapefruit moves into a tender floral heart of iris, orange blossom, cherry blossom, neroli and Indian jasmine, while vanilla, tonka bean, amber, sandalwood and patchouli hold the base. It is bright, powdery and lightly sweet — suited to warm weather and daytime wear. Longevity is good for a citrus-floral composition. Boadicea the Victorious is a British niche house named after the Iceni queen Boudica.
