Majestic celebrates Harrods, the iconic London department store, a destination luxury retail extravaganza of exclusive brands, restaurants, bespoke services and haute customer care. Boadicea the Victorious  launched in Harrods’ famous Black Hall Perfumery in 2008 and is now located in the Salon de Parfum on the sixth floor, in its own room amid the crystal chandeliers and marble floors.

It is a perfect interpretation of the Harrods experience, with a rush of cardamom and juicy red fruits as Majestic opens, mixed with the pungent resins of labdanum, fizzing and sharpened with lemon. Saffron, clove and cinnamon smell like spiced earth. Allied with a rich leather aspect the mix is perfectly balanced by a potent bouquet of ylang-ylang, muget and rose.

The beauty of Majestic lies in the grandiose positioning of the notes and exaltation of glossy fruits down into a compelling ground of musks, patchouli, oud, vanillic woods and amber. Moss and tonka round off an extravagant recipe of luxuriant notes and effects. Like Harrods itself, Majestic is about immersion in sensual overload.
