Boadicea Glorious
Glorious opens with a polished fruit salad—pineapple and apple given a slight rasp by raspberry and cardamom—that feels more luxurious than sweet, like something served in a crystal bowl rather than a plastic cup.

By the editors · 2 min readGlorious opens with a polished fruit salad—pineapple and apple given a slight rasp by raspberry and cardamom—that feels more luxurious than sweet, like something served in a crystal bowl rather than a plastic cup. The effect is bright but not juvenile, a trick managed by the cardamom's dry spice cutting through the gloss.
As it settles, jasmine and rose arrive flanked by nutmeg, tempering the fruit with classical florals that lean warm rather than soapy. The base is a thickly layered affair: sandalwood and guaiac wood provide smokiness, while amber, vanilla, and patchouli add depth without turning the composition gourmand. Cedar and moss keep it from collapsing into sweetness.
The result is a fruity-floral with ambitions beyond the ephemeral. It wears like formal attire with a sense of occasion—more ballroom than boardroom, unapologetically rich.
