I saved money for several months and a few days ago Valiant finally arrived. Already had a sample of it and i have to say ohh boy that blows me away again and again. I would say at the beginning it is a bit feminine but on men’s skin it transforms incredibly. Fits well in my collection :D
hello. i live in Azerbaijan. and last week i went the store and had 2 sprays on my forearm. on the next day my colleagues at work just loved it, and it stayed there after 4 days. after having 3 showers i still smelled it. and on wednesday i am going to buy this awesome fragrance. i just can not ignore this beauty. these fragrances act so active on skin and feel so natural. no roja or xerjoff that is sold in the stores can be compared to boadicea.
No, I would never spend that much on a fragrance! I don’t care how good it smells! I would walk into Osme on the way to work in the morning and spray it on! 😂 Great review as always, Joel!
If money was no object I'd absolutely pick this up. It sounds like a real piece of olfactory art. The guy that owns Osme must also be pretty cool to let you take the bottle outside and spray it. Next time I'm in Miami I'm going to stop by there
I just got my sample…simply put it is a stunning beauty! one of the most luxurious & sophisticated compositions I have ever smelled, absolutely worth the price, worth every penny!✌️
I just picked up Blue Sapphire for less when ordering on Harrods.com Vailiant is $970+$30 to ship to the US on Selfridges.com It's cheaper to just order Boadicea from the UK and pay the shipping.
I got a sample and arrived yesterday. Amazing. I love it and will be saving up for a full bottle. I have a lot of fragrances and this is not similar to anything I own. I lived blue saphire and hanumum also. Saphire, more male leaning imo but ai would wear as well. Valiant though is an incredible piece of art.
Boadicea make some magnificent fragrances but today I stumbled up on my first ever 'instant scrub off' scent. Have you tried 'Zayed 2018'? I smells almost EXACTLY like acrid diarrhoea, like a baby's used nappy. I couldn't believe it. I rushed instantly to the bathroom to scrub it off, totally unable to wait for any sort of redemptive 'dry down'. I have many of their fragrances, they're elegant and well constructed with just the right degree of 'unusual and unexpected'. These surprising and immediate twists are never sharp-edged or 'weird', the final scent is always moreish and intoxicating yet well-rounded and completely wearable in all climates and situations. But THIS one, holy smokes...I'd love to know if you've experienced it and what you made of it. Be ruthless! ;)
The only way I would own this if I was gifted it..... LOL!!!! Maybe a smart marketing thing for them to do was to sell a 50 ml for 1/2 the price....... In that case more people would buy it meaning they would get more revenues than just to sell 100ml bottles... But great review Joel Nariz............ Stay safe!!!
Wow I’d be terrified of dropping the bottle could you imagine how you’d feel , jeez I’d freak out lol.im sure it’s a beautiful fragrance like you say but too rich for my blood my friend the blue collar worker comes straight to the fore front on this one but it is nice to see a review and dream good job peace out ✌️
Found it fun and yes, I would purchase but probably my first will be another one. Which do you feel parfum wise represents the legend of Queen Bodicua best? Which one would she wear?
That's a great question, what fun! I know the question wasn't directed at me, but nevertheless, I'd like to chime in and say that no fragrances in the Boadicea The Victorious line up have a challenging fierceness about them, so I'm at a loss too. They're beautifully constructed, well considered and elegantly balanced. I'd love to know the answer to your question so I'll hopefully be notified when someone posts an answer with great conviction, ha! What fragrance do you think a female warrior would wear? I'd laugh if you said 'Wardasina' by Xerjoff. :D
@@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293 jajajaja, I am still evaluating my analysis! I tried Complex and I felt like a Comforted Queen Warrior, but not ready to make that decision. Thank you for comment.
Hi, I bought a sample of the perfume from their website. I think it cost about $ 12.5. The smell is amazing. For which station in the day do you think the perfume is most appropriate?
@@joelthenose Yes. I think just like you. As a perfume collector to convince myself to buy this amazing perfume, I tell myself that it is better to buy one excellent perfume that I will use and not 20 cheap perfumes that will just lie in my drawer ...
Super Strong Orange hand soap smell- Yes I tried this stuff yuk. Nothing beautiful in the scent. The dry down is basic. It’s so strong the smell gets sickening. I wanted to love it but my nose says Yuk Orange Hand Cleaner Soap smell 😂
Vixere is really nice 👍 but Valiant is way superior imo when spraying from the actual bottle and worn on skin you notice the quality difference and depth. I love both but Valiant is special⭐. I get 14+ hours with Valiant, amazing performance and it is a potent 100 ml pure parfum concentration.
@@goranp8237 I agree! Vixere doesn't compare to Valiant. There's definitely a difference during the wear and the longevity of Vixere is just sad. It becomes a skin scent in less than 3 hours.
I'm not sure because I have smelled some things by Roja Dove and Xerjoff that were in smaller bottles but the price per ounce was more expensive. But this definitely is in the top 5.
That's so funny! HAHAHA! Imagining a fragrance this expensive in a UA-cam video as a 'blind buy review' would make me laugh out loud to see. What's funny about it, is that there ARE people who blind buy ultra-expensive fragrances and I always wonder who they are, what their background is and how they live. They're unintentionally hilarious that's for sure, I love it.
Nope. Sorry man, but you have no idea what you are talking about. Valiant is expensive not because of the ingredients. Bullshit. The ingredients are good, yes. But Bortnikoff has way more quality (same thing with Areej Le Doré) . These brands put to shame Boadicea and they don't charge this ridiculous amount of money. Boadicea is expensive because it's a luxury house. You buy EXCLUSIVITY. Most of those us$1,200- go to exclusivity & bottle's design. So, Haute Luxe has more quality because it is us$3,500-? Is it because it has gold flakes? Shit... Daniel Josier offers gold flakes, Atelier Des Ors offers gold flakes too and how much money do they charge? Haute Luxe is expensive because it's Roja's favorite fragrance. Only 50 bottles available every year. Exclusivity!
@@elizabethkyengo1686 Read, read , read my comment again, again, again. I'm talking about WHY Valiant is expensive and why other niche brands vs Boadicea with better, better , better quality charge less, less, less money.

LOL. I totally agree with you and I think that all the niche houses should offer a smaller option so more people could afford them
I've just ordered a sample. Can't wait to experience this.
You need more views, I’m glad I subbed.
Thx and welcome!
Could easily be my signature scent if I didn't like variety so much.
Easily

Is amazing
Hi, I bought a sample of the perfume from their website. I think it cost about $ 12.5. The smell is amazing. For which station in the day do you think the perfume is most appropriate?
I think this is a great fragrance to wear all day and I do think it would be better in the summer and spring
@@joelthenose Yes. I think just like you. As a perfume collector to convince myself to buy this amazing perfume, I tell myself that it is better to buy one excellent perfume that I will use and not 20 cheap perfumes that will just lie in my drawer ...
@@shayrlcpa I agree with you 100%
How could you get a sample for only 12.5??
@@psidhu1979 Osme would see you one. Not sure the cost. Check the website. Www.osmeperfumery.com
Yes
I would buy it if money isn't an issue for sure.
👍👍 Me too
My rent isn’t even that much! Maybe one day....in the distant future. It’s actually cheaper now. You can get it for under $1100
hello. which one is better in your opinion? aurica or valiant? thanks
Super Strong Orange hand soap smell- Yes I tried this stuff yuk. Nothing beautiful in the scent. The dry down is basic. It’s so strong the smell gets sickening. I wanted to love it but my nose says Yuk Orange Hand Cleaner Soap smell 😂
Smells this more expensive as the roja chypre exordinaire ???
Hmmm. Very good but probably not. Roja is in a whole other league.
@@joelthenose okaay thank you than i can better spend my money on the roja chypre exordinaire 😉
Please checkout Electimus Vixere is a better and refined version of Valiant imo.It is cheaper and last longer as well. Great review
Thanks for the tip!
The problem with Vixere tho it’s way to quiet like almost no projection after 20min. Idk but also the price on Valiant piss me off.
Vixere is really nice 👍 but Valiant is way superior imo when spraying from the actual bottle and worn on skin you notice the quality difference and depth. I love both but Valiant is special⭐. I get 14+ hours with Valiant, amazing performance and it is a potent 100 ml pure parfum concentration.

I hope one day I will be rich enough to afford this masterpiece without breaking the bank.
is this perfume for hot or cold weather?
Maybe someone will buy this for me 😁😁😁
Are going 2 do the Boadicea The Victorious Tiger?
Omg that is too expensive it's like 70% of my 1month salary 🤔🤔🤔
This is the most expensive fragrance you ever smelled?
I'm not sure because I have smelled some things by Roja Dove and Xerjoff that were in smaller bottles but the price per ounce was more expensive. But this definitely is in the top 5.
One of the best 👌 👍 😍
For blind purchase 🤣🤣🤔🤔

50$ per spray omg
