Decedence (EDP)

The word decadence implies excessive hedonism, something over ripe and epicurean. Perfect for this this delicious perfume from Boadicea the Victorious, rendered with hugely expressive drama, opening on a gummy rush of fizzing apple and raspberry spiked with baies roses, saffron, a classic Boadicea note and coriander.

The fruit smells distilled and heady like Calvados and Chambord, the lush black raspberry liqueur with added blackberries and cassis. It is a beautifully tangy start that continues to echo down throughout the perfume as it wears on skin.

A stylish, late night swirl of Leather oud, rosaceous geranium and magnolia swell out a playful heart that descends darkly into a striking sweet and fruity Cambodian oud wrapped in patchouli, verdigris suede and honeyed amber. Decadence is a powerful scent, defined by the spectacular blending of red berries, apple and the smoky beauty of Boadicea’s passion for oud and saffron.
