About the Original
About Boadicea the Victorious The King
The fragrance these clones are inspired by.
The King by Boadicea the Victorious is a warm, spicy oriental for men that centers on a rich plum-and-spice accord layered over tobacco, leather and resinous amber. Top notes of plum, saffron, rum and baking spices give an initial sweet-spicy gourmand hit that moves into a floral immortelle heart and a base of tobacco, incense, leather, vanilla and labdanum with a mossy, patchouli drydown. Its profile blends fruity gourmand facets with smoky, leathery depth, making it feel dressy and winter-oriented. The release averages a 4.49/5 from 57 votes and is generally well liked by fans.
Our take
I like The King for its rich plum-and-tobacco mix. Plum and cinnamon open sweet, and leather with incense in the base keep it dark. Longevity is strong for me; it's my winter-night go-to for dates and formal wear. I wish the plum were a bit brighter on my skin, but overall it's easy to like and worth a try if you enjoy sweet spicy leathers.
