Champion by Boadicea The Victorious: Honoring English Football in The World Cup
Boadicea never fails to exude class in their offerings, but their newest release might be a bit more playful than most, while still being serious at the same time. It’s no secret that the World Cup is in full swing and football fans around the world are fervently watching their countries with pride in hopes to win it all. In fact, I saw a picture on IG of Olivier Cresp and Alberto Morillas at a game, so perfumers enjoy it as well!
This certainly includes Boadicea the Victorious, who hails from England, and created a scent to honor the heart and spirit of the English National Football team with Champion. The idea of knowing you could fail, yet still pushing on by harnessing your inner strength is the theme of this commemorative release that is rooted in the desire to compete for your country, and give it every ounce of strength you have.
An energizing top of bergamot is met by a spicy flare of pink pepper and ginger provides the kick(pun intended) that rushes through your veins as you burst onto the field. Cardamom and a quintessentially English combo of blackcurrant and rose provide a soft heart that calms the nerves and clears the mind. A robust base of benzoin, vanilla, musk, cedar, ambergris, and patchouli basks you in the rich luxury of hoisting that golden trophy.
