Solar Boadicea the Victorious, released in 2019, is marketed as a unisex fragrance, rooted in the wood and floral families. Created within the Black collection and available in eau de parfum.
Brand country — the United Kingdom, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of Solar is shaped as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Boadicea the Victorious is recognizable in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum sets a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
From the first breath you meet salty-airy opening notes: Aquatic accord, Bergamot, Black currant leaf and Peach.
In the middle phase you notice Jasmine Sambac, Lily of the Valley, Magnolia, May rose, Osmanthus and Pink Peony keeping a velvety rose-iris direction.
The accord profile is shaped by these accords: Aquatic, Citrus, Floral and Fruit without random overlap. Secondary accord layers such as Musc, Wood, Amber and Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Mineral, Citrus, Green and Fruit. It also reaches into Whiteflower, Floral, Ambery and Earthy / Mossy.
In summary Solar sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best understood on skin.
