Boadicea the Victorious Harmonious EDP

Description

Harmonious is a warm, balanced woody-spicy eau de parfum from Boadicea the Victorious, released in 2022.

Ambrette, cognac and rum open it rich and boozy, brightened by bergamot, cardamom and saffron; may rose, orris root and cashmere wood carry a refined floral-woody heart; and it settles into suede-soft leather, amber, vetiver and sandalwood. Parfumo enthusiasts rate it 8.5/10, praising the balance and calling out its above-average longevity for cooler-weather wear.

Scent Character

• Sweet: 26% (rum, vanilla)

• Woody: 21% (cashmere wood, sandalwood)
• Floral: 18% (may rose, orris)

• Fresh: 6% (bergamot top)

Translation: a boozy, spiced rose over leather and amber, closer to a modern chypre-amber than a straightforward floral.
