Blind bought Bodacious about a year ago mainly because of the cognac and tobacco notes and couldn’t be happier. Such and incredible frag, I only wear on special occasions and always gets me compliments, it’s such a beast performer.
Looking forward to your take on this brand, Erica. I only have Ardent and Imperial, from the more affordable end of their catalogue. Both are lovely and have attracted an occasional compliment, and I'm pleased to have them in my collection. However, a lot of their fragrances seem very much over-priced (Blue Sapphire, for example, retails at £645 here in the UK). The higher price point doesn't seem justifiable by way of extraordinary ingredients or employing the services of a high profile perfumer. At half that price some of them might have been a consideration, but as it stands they will never be in my collection.
Have a sample of Bodacious and upon 1st spray it was an immediate YES ❣ Compared and very similar to Lost Cherry , but I've had a decant of LC for a long time now and barely wear , nice but doesn't have me searching for a bottle and the price is outrageous imo, but Bodacious has me searching for a fb immediately , can't wait to add her and being a female I shy away from masculine leaning scents , Bodacious is very feminine , seductress kind of scent , I don't pick up on Tobacco and I love boozy scents
I have 16 bottles. While some of them are “clones” they last longer for me. Consort is better than Aventus for example. Legend and Tobacco Sapphire are incredible.
@@roberthu5249 yes! The clones with a not that high price tag are worth it btw, like Harmonious for exemple, clone of dior homme parfum, but with a nice sweetness
All women are blondes. Blondes are just honest about it. Thank you Erica, for all your time and effort and passion. You are worth the best of fortunes. I wish you well.
Yes they are legit but my only negative experience is that the fragrances I purchased from them, for some reason they don’t last as along as I expected. They also have old bottles and maybe the perfume has expired. Idk I purchased SAHRAA from fragrancenet and it doesn’t last as long as my decant.
Ardent is my favvourite. But then again I do not own many more others of this house;-) Bleu Saffire I also own. I am very interested in Valliant. To me Ardent is soo good and same time it is also the most affordable,
Heya 👋, I'm told Ardent smells very similar to ATH Onyx. Did you get Onyx in your discovery purchase? Also, I'd like to see your individual reviews of Aaron's work, more time given than the discovery video you did. Just a thought.
the HUGE problem with Boadicea is a lot of the fragances are almost clones, but with a very high price tag compared to the original. Like Harmonious, Glistening, Tiger, Aqua Sapphire etc...
@@daniell5740exactly, people really need to learn the difference between exact clones and fragrances that compete in the same fragrance category lol. People try to compare Aqua Sapphire to Orto parisi megamare. Aqua sapphire is basically double the oil concentration and the notes are not even the same other than a marine/seaweed note. People smell a strong marine notes and think they are clones 🤡 . Whether it is worth the price or not is solely up to the buyer and how much money they make/ are willing to pay for that item.
Where is complex? Intricate? Elaborate? Pearl moon? Inquisitive? Green sapphire? Carbon sapphire? I mean don't get me wrong the perfumes mentioned in the video are good.. but if i spend this kind of money i want something new, deep, and unique .. not just a "crowd pleaser"
