In a nutshell
Description & review snapshotWarde by Kajal is a dense, herbal oriental-floral fragrance designed for cold autumn and winter nights. The scent opens with a sharp, medicinal blast of black absinthe and pine, before revealing a sweet heart of rose and orange blossom. A rich foundation of balsam fir and dark agarwood anchors the composition on skin.
Reviews →Boadicea the Victorious Chariot opens with a tart flash of black currant, acidic red berries, and zesty lime before settling into lush rose and white florals. A deep base of agarwood, earthy patchouli, and creamy vanilla anchors the sweetness. It performs best during cool autumn afternoons and formal evening gathering…
