The materials chosen are universal, intense, and rare.
There is the perspective of a wake before eternity between oud and spices that serve the rose.

For twelve years, Etat Libre d’Orange has been celebrating enlightenment through an awareness of beauty, goodness, sensitivity and intelligence. Our house has welcomed humankind in all its forms, as long as they try to contribute to The Perspective – the Renaissance concept of three dimensions in art which allowed for more realistic and profound depictions. And this perspective can be interpreted to extend beyond paintings.

Five hundred years ago, merchants confronted the two established orders :the Red (priests) and the Black (soldiers). They created a third path, cleansed of dictates, for the proliferation of the arts – and perfume. Etat Libre d’Orange honors the sons and daughters of the Renaissance by offering a trail of insight and alliance for their skin.

Think of Lucifer – from the Latin roots, lux (light) and ferre (to hold) – the shining one, light-bearing, like Venus when appearing as the morning star. Half a millennium to wear on the skin, and in its wake the majestic memory of the rose, the power of spices and the sense of something precious. The story of mankind delivered to you in a perfume

The essence of a roaring fire lit on a pitch black night at the top of the Zaro cliffside on Punta Caruso on the Island of Ischia. Cliffs which drop sharply into the sea, looking towards the Gulf.

This is when the famous Sorrento Citrus Fruits are first perceived, with lemons and bergamot oranges, contrasted by the spice Thyme against a backdrop of juniper berries and English lavender. The heart notes beat strong with sophisticated, precious flowers such as Ylang-Ylang and Hyacinth, artfully matched with irreverent Cardamom and sweet white musk.

Monarch by Boadicea the Victorious is a Leather fragrance for women and men. Monarch was launched in 2015.

As an haute collection, Boadicea the Victorious is studded with references to royalty, lineage and power. Sovereign, Jubilee, Enthrone, Defender, Majestic, Empire, Consort, Imperial and Resplendent are some examples and it all loops back to Boadicea, the Iceni warrior queen who rebelled against the Roman army 

Every perfume collection has fragrances that perhaps slip under the radar, making them somehow more rewarding and pleasurable to re-discover. Monarch is one such example. A stealthy warm and comforting scent with layers of resins, woods, oud, spices, leather, floral notes and a gorgeous opening of red ripe berries, artemisia, black tea and cypress. 

The heart flowers are a beautiful arrangement of heady roses and jasmine complimented by the fresher peppery notes of freesia and creamy lily of the valley. Lushness meets purity, exalted skilfully by pink pepper, cardamon and a whisper of cinnamon. 

Monarch was inspired by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, sadly no longer with us. Her unwavering sense of duty, fortitude and commitment to her kingdom and subjects. It is always impressive that someone as documented as the Queen was also a huge enigma. It is a near impossible feat to placate those who demand access, transparency and modernisation with die hard royalists who see her and her family as an extension of their own, projecting lives, loves and loss on a royal family that by its very nature remains inscrutable and bound to centuries of tradition. 

Imperial by Boadicea the Victorious is a Oriental Woody fragrance for women and men. Imperial was launched in 2012. The nose behind this fragrance is Christian Provenzano. Top notes are Brazilian Rosewood, Lavender, Birch and Angelica; middle notes are Rose, Geranium, Freesia and Jasmine; base notes are Agarwood (Oud), Guaiac Wood, Labdanum, Leather, Amber, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Olibanum, Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha and Musk.

The mood of the word imperial, also a synonym for magnificent and majestic, echoes through the perfumes and nomenclature of Boadicea. Relating to and of empires, the imperial family of an emperor, imperious, meaning command and authority. 

It conjures up a certain palatial hauteur and exclusivity. Imperial has an opening salvo of sherbet woods and lavender polish on old school desks, while birch adds a silken fermented facet. 

The all-important angelica explodes across the mix imparting a medicinal vibe that surprises the senses after the voluptuous woody opening. Far from being jarring, the angelica adds an oddly comforting cleanliness and the safety of a squeaky disinfection. Angelica has been used to flavour gin forever and is a key ingredient in Chartreuse, the unique green liqueur made exclusively by Carthusian monks. 

Imperial has a similar liqueur-like pungency, sweet, spicy, herbaceous. The heart notes of rose, geranium, freesia and jasmine swell under the aegis of the opening notes, the geranium/rose duo in particular, softening the clinical boom of angelica. 

The birch develops a tarred smokiness as the substantial base begins to expand and define the drydown. The bold Boadicea oud is singed with guaiac wood, frankincense and the inky mentholic leather of Cypriol. The sticky resin of labdanum further enhances the leather while patchouli and amber varnish the fumes. The base notes are expansive and contrast rigorously with the bouquet heart of flowers and herbal astringency of the top notes. 

Imperial holds itself with a certain pomposity, such is its big impact, but it becomes beautifully accessible and moreish as the three layers of ingredients have coalesced. Imperial, perfume of the highest order

A perfume as complex and dazzling as the woman who wears it.The notes conjure, in scent, the delicate gold leafing and play between light and shadow, for which the painting is celebrated.

The petal-y rose heart depicts all of the facets of the rose. Finally, vanilla absolute's unctuosity appears generously in the drydown, adorned by an exclusive patchouli molecule, the Akigalawood.
