Coming up roses this Valentine's

News & Events ~ 3 Feb 2023

Certain notes have more of an impact on whether we like a fragrance or not. If you were to conduct a personal experiment of lining up your fragrances and finding out the notes of each, you would discover that there are common notes that run throughout them.

Every note has its own appeal, its own olfactory benefits, and its own power to influence. Just in time for Valentines Day, the note we focus on this month is the most romantic of all; the rose.

Often linked to love, beauty, courage, and purity. This flower’s importance within the industry is renowned, once considered old-fashioned and unfashionable, the rose has regained popularity in the UK, the Middle East, and Asia.

Roses help to reduce stress and restore inner balance, so it’s no wonder perfumers use this gem within their creations and why we tend to reach for fragrances that contain this uplifting and sensual note. With an array of fragrances within the Boadicea the Victorious collection that contain rose, we have narrowed it down to our top 5 rose fragrances for the rose lovers or to simply gift a loved one a little romance this Valentines.

Nemer

Elegant, yet sensual Nemer opens with Turkish and Moroccan rose with a dash of saffron. A heart of oud and patchouli add an air of sophistication where a base of amber and sandalwood combine for a lavish finish that lingers softly on the skin.

Nebulous

A darker rose fragrance, Nebulous intrigues and seduces. Opening with rose and saffron and settling into a heart of brooding oud and delicate violet before a dry down of amber and musk create an opulent and exclusive scent that sways towards mysterious but is as equally alluring.

Sovereign

A dazzling fragrance and not just the juice, Sovereign is presented in an artisan bottle emblazoned with a rose gold shield adorned with diamonds. The fragrance itself is a beguiling blend of roses. Top notes of Iranian rose and violet leaves melt into a heart of Rose de Mai and geranium before settling into a base of Bulgarian rose creating an opulent and enchanting scent.

Harmonious

Our most recent launch, Harmonious is a pure perfume that promotes balance. A fragrance that oozes sweet and spicy accords yet when on the skin, it is the rose and Rose de Mai from the heart notes that shine through. Combined with sweet vanilla, boozy cognac, smooth Kashmir word, powerful leather, and powdery orris, Harmonious leaves wearers positive and calm.

Bravery

Bravery, a beautiful, optimistic, and refined fragrance that makes an impact. Saffron, black pepper, and Bulgarian lavender open the fragrance yet the heart of rose, jasmine, and lily burst through creating a charming floral scent that demands attention. A base of amber, moss, sandalwood, and heliotrope add a density to Bravery that charms and intrigues.
