Carbon Sapphire Supercharged

Boadicea the Victorious · 2026

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Boadicea the Victorious Carbon Sapphire Supercharged is a unisex scent that sets rose and oud against leather, saffron and amber, with a floral, spicy, smoky character. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of ratings is small, so these read as a tendency rather than a firm verdict. Its unisex build sits comfortably on either men or women. It opens warm and spiced with pink pepper, saffron and cognac, while geranium and rosewood add a green edge. In the heart, Turkish rose, Bulgarian rose and Egyptian jasmine sit alongside leather and oud. The base lays down a resinous, earthy, smoky floor of Vietnamese oud, Cambodian oud, crystal amber, gaiac wood and patchouli.

Guess · 2021

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Eau de Toilette

Guess Bella Vita Rosa Eau de Toilette is a light women's fragrance that pairs a citrus and fruity freshness with a floral heart. It opens with blackcurrant, Italian lemon, bergamot and quince, where the sharp citrus is softened by fruit. The heart brings freesia, lily of the valley, magnolia and jasmine for a floral lift. In the base, vetiver, sandalwood, musk and iris settle it onto a calm, clean ground. Voters rate both longevity and sillage as moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than filling a room. Its fresh, floral character suits everyday wear. Maison Asrar Belgravia and Sand + Fog Peach Bellini have a close profile by notes and accords.

Panouge · 2016

Fresh · Citrus · Aquatic

Panouge Perle Rare Homme is a fresh, citrusy and aquatic fragrance for men, suited to warm days and easy everyday wear. Its longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it neither dominates a room nor vanishes quickly. It is clearly aimed at men, though the powdery, creamy side softens it. It opens with pineapple, bergamot and kumquat for a fruity brightness. Green tea and rose take over in the heart, and white musk, sandalwood and crystal amber settle it into a soft, powdery base. Une Nuit Nomade Nothing but Sea and Sky and Puma Create Man (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.

Gisada · 2025

Fresh · Floral · Aquatic

Gisada Paraiba is a fresh, floral unisex scent whose aquatic and fruity sides are softened by a touch of sweetness. The top opens with juniper, chamomile, pear and peony; pear adds a fruity freshness while juniper and chamomile keep it slightly green. In the heart, rose, magnolia, dew drop and driftwood bring a floral side with a damp, aquatic feel. The base of crystal amber and white musk smooths the scent and sweetens it. Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, so this is a tentative picture. It is made for anyone, and its profile suits both men and women.

In the heart, orange blossom, cardamom and white cedarwood soften that brightness, and the base of crystal amber, tonka bean and musk sweetens it into a creamy, gourmand finish. A synthetic edge runs through the accords. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. These ratings rest on only a few votes.

Wild Veil Perfume

Sweet · Spicy · Woody

Solid Perfume

Wild Veil Perfume Fool (Solid Perfume) is a warm, resinous unisex scent that leans sweet, smoky and oriental. Crystal amber, labdanum and resins give the scent its weight, while balsam rounds them off and smoke and woody notes add a dry, earthy shade. The sweetness is held in check by spicy and powdery tones, and creamy, faintly animal touches deepen the whole. It reads dark, enveloping and warm throughout. Tom Ford Amber Absolute and Serge Lutens Le participe passé have a close profile.

Milady

8.2

Boadicea the Victorious · 2017

Floral · Green · Fruity

Milady's longevity and sillage are both rated strong; the vote count is small, but most voters find its staying power high. It reads as a feminine scent. It opens fruity and fresh with blackcurrant, mandarin orange, violet and marine notes. The heart belongs to the roses, with jasmine and carnation adding a slightly spicy floral touch. As it dries, moss and patchouli lay an earthy, woody base, which white musk, crystal amber and vanilla sweeten and soften into a powdery finish. Dusita Rosarine and Detaille Sofia have a close profile.

Tom Tailor · 2023

Floral · Fruity · Sweet
