The tobacco never disappears; it just recedes into a warm, ambery, woody drydown. If you have found cherry fragrances too sweet or too young, this is the counter-argument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eScent Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweet\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloral\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWoody\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpicy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmoky \u0026amp; Boozy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTranslation:\u003c\/em\u003e a rich cherry-and-almond sweetness sits at the centre, wrapped in heliotrope and rose florals, grounded on sandalwood and vetiver, with clove spice and a genuine cognac-and-tobacco thread keeping the whole thing dry rather than sugary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFragrance Pyramid\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cherry, Cognac, Almond, Clove\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeart:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heliotrope, Moroccan Rose, Jasmine Sambac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tobacco, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Amber, Sandalwood, Musk, Vetiver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePerformance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLongevity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Above average, typically 7–9 hours on skin, and noticeably longer on fabric, where the tobacco and tonka cling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSillage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strong for the first two hours, then a warm, close trail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProjection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Confident arm's-length presence early; settles into a personal-space scent by the halfway point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest Occasions \u0026amp; Season\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirmly a Fall and Winter fragrance, made for Evening and Night Out wear.

The cognac, clove and tobacco pull it dry and boozy, closer to cherry liqueur in a wood-panelled room than to cherry candy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Bodacious for men or women?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is unisex.

Bodacious is the opposite: almond and clove add bitterness up top, and the tobacco base gives it a smoky, understated finish that keeps it wearable well past the opening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"3.4 oz \/ 100 ml Retail Bottle","offer_id":51796798996647,"sku":"5060475233797","price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1mL Sample","offer_id":51796799029415,"sku":"1-0822","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5mL Sample","offer_id":51796799062183,"sku":"5T-0822","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10mL Sample","offer_id":51796799094951,"sku":"10-0822","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0752\/2589\/0983\/files\/1_92ab9e9c-a413-4055-a51d-2bee0cf48a9d.png?v=1793868336","url":"https:\/\/crewattireoo.store\/products\/boadicea-the-victorious-bodacious-edp","provider":"CREWATTIRE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
