One of the bestselling creations from Boadicea the Victorious, Bodacious is a powerful after-hours blend that radiates rich floral seduction, softened by tawny cognac, creamy almonds, musk, and a gentle haze of tobacco. Unapologetically sensual and bold, it is a fragrance of mood, drama, and undeniable charm.
The opening is a gourmand interplay of cherry and almond — a pairing as natural as it is decadent, evoking an echo of benzaldehyde reminiscent of cherry soda. Accents of spiced clove and the warmth of cognac add firelit depth before unfolding into a heart of jasmine sambac, Moroccan rose oil, and heliotrope’s powdery cherry-pie nuance. This bouquet glows with quiet elegance, elevated by malted sandalwood and soft white tobacco, which whispers rather than shouts.
As Bodacious develops on the skin, amber, tonka bean, vanilla, and vetiver join the composition, deepening its complexity and allure. The fusion of gourmand and floral elements, especially the opulent Moroccan rose, captures the house’s signature warrior-like intensity, making Bodacious an addictive and unforgettable perfume experience.
