Perfume Finder by Bottle, Notes & Occasion

Choosing a perfume is much more than just making a purchase – it is the start of an intimate relationship. The right fragrance becomes part of you, your presence, your memory, your story. At Boadicea the Victorious, each creation is an olfactory wonder, imbued with heritage, artistry, and power. But with so many perfumed treasures in our collection, how do you choose?

Find Your Fragrance

As perfumers, our role is to assist you in your search for your fragrance - one that makes you and others feel something. While scent may be the first and most important element of choosing the perfect perfume, it’s not the only one. So, we would like to help guide you to your perfumed choice based not only on the notes, but by bottle and occasion too, so that you can find your perfect overall match.

By Bottle: A Choice Between Icons

Our bottles are as iconic as the fragrances they hold. The instantly recognisable round flask-inspired silhouette, crowned with the Boadicea crest, is a nod to British craftsmanship and the fearless spirit of our namesake warrior queen. But within the classic shape, subtle differences tell their own stories.

Perhaps you’re drawn to the deep, jewel-toned enamel of the Sapphire Series, the sparkling silver of Heroine, the golden radiance of Defender, or the rose gold armouring of Resplendent. Choosing by bottle is more than just aesthetics; it is about aligning with the visual expression of the scent’s personality. Your eye will more often than not lead you to the fragrance your heart desires. Explore our opulent bottles of perfume, and see where instinct leads you.

By Note: Follow Your Nose

Every Boadicea fragrance is a complex tapestry of notes - top, heart, and base - woven with precision and passion. If you know what you love, the note-based search is your most direct path to olfactory bliss.

- Woody & Oud lovers may find themselves enchanted by Oud Sapphire or Imperial, where depth meets distinction.

- Floral enthusiasts can revel in the romantic embrace of Azrak or Violet Sapphire (still part of line up? I have not written any copy for this one), where petals and powder meet regal warmth. 

- Citrus seekers will feel uplifted by Aqua Sapphire or Energizer, both delivering sparkling bursts of sunshine.

- Oriental (Amber) aficionados might gravitate toward Nemer or Bodacious, each cloaked in sensual spices and rich resins.

Our Fragrance Finder by scent allows you to search by these notes, focussing on your preferences so you can meet your match in moments. We have also compiled a detailed guide to layering scents through guided by notes, so if you are inspired by this approach, keep exploring. New fragrances await.

By Occasion: Dressing Yourself With Scent

Perfume is an intimate skin signature that lingers long after you have exited a room. Like a treasured piece of jewellery that never leaves your neck, or a precisely tailored jacket, the right fragrance enhances AND completes your presence. Think of it as fragrance styling: an art of selecting scents that harmonise with the mood, setting, and statement you want to make.

For daytime sophistication, choose airy yet poised compositions such as Gentle or Ardent - fragrances that feel like a crisp silk blouse or freshly pressed linen suit. They carry refinement without ostentation, perfect for work meetings, gallery afternoons, or leisurely lunches.

When the sun sets and evening drama calls to you, embrace the unapologetic magnetism of Blue Sapphire or the deep, smoky seduction of Tobacco Sapphire. These scents envelop you in confidence, turning heads with every step. Ideal for candlelit dinners, velvet lounges, and cinematic. For celebrations and milestone days, lean into unabashed opulence with Opal or Rebellious. 

 

These are fragrances that make an entrance - rich, commanding blends that whisper of heritage yet roar with individuality. They set the tone before you’ve even spoken, ensuring every moment feels worthy of remembrance. From the quiet intimacy of a Sunday brunch to the splendour of a once-in-a-lifetime gala, Boadicea fragrances ensure you’re always attired in scent as impeccably as you are in silk, satin, or velvet.

A Final Word on Choosing Your Scent

The beauty of Boadicea lies in diversity. Every fragrance is created in Britain, bottled with care and infused with a fearless spirit of independence and individuality. Whether you navigate by bottle, note, or occasion, you’re not just finding a fragrance, you’re claiming a piece of artistry that will live with you and on you. Your journey is yours alone, but with the Perfume Finder, every path leads to victory.
