Defender - 100ml

Defender is a fearless olfactory tribute to Queen Boadicea, blending strength, sensuality, and storytelling. It opens with a rebellious burst of zesty ginger and grapefruit, wrapped in dark candy, honeyed cognac, and red berries, while solar orange blossom lends warmth to a heart ruled by licentious Night Blooming Jasmine. This intoxicating floral core swirls with earthy myrrh, smoky hay absolute—a nod to Boadicea’s agrarian roots—and a verdant Leather Fusion accord, evoking the supple hides of handcrafted armour and reins. Defender’s base smoulders with birch tar, guaiac wood, and patchouli, radiating from a bed of glazed ambers and musks. Peru balsam lends a sweet, vanillic depth, elevated by cinnamic notes and a rich dried fruit nuance. Clary sage and labdanum weave through the composition, imparting a herbaceous, salted honey warmth that magnifies the leather’s tactile allure. Every note in Defender is chosen with intent, creating a scent that feels both modern and mythic—a protective, seductive cloak of olfactory armour. Embodying the courage and charisma of its namesake, Defender is not just a fragrance; it’s a bold expression of identity, a story worn on the skin, echoing the past while forging new paths forward.
