Boadicea the Victorious Green Sapphire Parfum

Description

Green Sapphire is Boadicea the Victorious's 2016 parfum built around a cedar-and-pine woodland theme, a sharp raspberry-violet leaf opening settling into cashmeran and pine needles, then a long cedar-sandalwood base. Reviewers on Fragrantica and Parfumo describe its performance as "monstrous," with some of the strongest projection in the wider Sapphire family.

Scent Character

• Woody: 57% (Atlas cedar, sandalwood)
• Fresh: 14% (pine needles, violet leaf)
• Sweet: 14% (raspberry)
• Spicy: 14% (saffron)

Translation: a green, resinous cedar-pine woodland with a tart raspberry top note, closer to a walk through a British forest than a conventional gourmand or floral.

Performance
