Fruity fruity fruity. Feminine. Made me feel headachy. Performance is slightly above average. Nothing unique. Pass.

وصلتني عينه من هذا العطر .. ولأن هذه الدار تستحق الاهتمام لجودة
مكوناتها فقد حرصت على تجربة العطر جيدا
العطر فاكهي بكل بساطه
تلاحظ فورا نقاء المكونات
لم تذكرني رائحته بأي عطر
ثبات وفوحان جيد جدا
لكن وجدت ان العطر يسبب لي صداعا خفيفا عند شم الرائحه
سأصرف النظر عنه.. وادعو لتجربته
العطر مناسب جدا للصيف.. ليل نهار
8/10

I don’t see plum listed in the note breakdown, but it smells to me, like my very favorite fragrance: tom ford, plum japonais. Glorious is certainly softer, but I get a very jammy-dark vibe. I do not smell pineapple. I would think this would be much better suited for the winter. To me, its a very cozy and comfortable scent.
EDIT
So I sprayed this yesterday eve. it had been a long time since i’d worn it! It does smell like plum japonais – but i noticed that after about 2 hours, i smell oud. I definitely don’t smell oud in plum japonais, so i think it’s important to clarify that this does indeed divert towards a different direction as it progresses. it’s a great scent – but it wears me out quickly because it’s so jammy and intense.

Too masculine for my taste in an after-shave sort of way.

Beware, it seems this was reformulated? My bottle’s contents are very pale, almost white. Not red or even red-tinted like some people are describing. It has almost no scent. It hits the skin smelling like some subtle resins and woods, maybe a little fruit. It is certainly not syrupy, spicy, and there is zero jasmine in it. The heart is supposed to contain jasmine, trust me there is ZERO jasmine or sweet syrup in the pale liquid. It is totally linear, and frankly just smells like some woody aromachemicals. What a pity if it was reformulated because it sounded so beautiful. But honestly, this is not the quality that I have come to expect from this house. One thing they never lack is quality! And this is beyond sub-par.
ZEKA85 – :
This is a beautiful fragrance without the beat someone over the head quality that comes with spicy, powerful scents so frequently. I love it more and more every time I smell it. It has a cool spiciness to it that I find very appealing. I don’t really get any fruit in it at all!

Glorious could and should have been a stunner. Glorious, per say maybe(!)
The trick for this one is maybe to spray from afar. You get just what the note list says, which is always a good thing if you go by that first.
But there’s no beating round the bush here – you have to like fruits and sweetness and a tonne more fruits as this is a total bomb of it. Gallons of syrup.
The other problem I have is actually with the elemi (resin) – for me, it’s strange ‘airy spicy’ element while most likely intended to, adds a distinct ‘medieval’ fell to the composition and just comes off amplifying the ‘transparent’ side of things to being unbalanced.
It’s sad because here, straight amber or ambergris would have weighed down things far better.
Also, speaking of imbalance – back to the fruitplosion!
Picture a ‘nice’ version of Byredo’s Pulp – the problm is here it simply becomes far too cloying and overbearing because what little wood/amber/other things are in there, struggle to display themselves.
All in all, it’s initilly very nice (love the apple Bodecia does so amazingly well) but needed tempering – and balance to be considered an all-rounder ‘signature’ purchase – and the excessive elemi. So it falls short for me.
But considered as a totally feminine scent, this could be a winner. Try Monarch for a 1/10 of the fruit and much more woods; a far more balanced take on things.
My rating: 6/10. (7/10 on some wears where fruit/elemi is lesser)
Quality: 9/10.

This is almost as if you open a cedar chest filled with spicy dried fruits. Hints of the sweeter, ripe fruit tease through the drydown, which is filled with hearty moss and shaded woods.
There is something extremely familiar about this scent, circa 1990’s and it’s driving me crazy because it may be the one thing that is turning my nose off.
Great quality fragrance and no doubt alluring, but I think I’d prefer this on a man as it has a rugged exterior on the whole.

Fruity, unconventional, and sexy! Glorious is my first purchase from Boadicea The Victorious and I’m looking forward to experiencing more from this house. To be honest, I’m utterly shocked that I fell for this because normally I shy away from fruity fragrances. I find some of them to be too G-rated for my tastes. Glorious on the other hand, is the perfect balance of fruits and spices. Cardamom adds warmth and depth to the fragrance, and I’m a big fan of the outcome. A+!
PRYANIC – :
An explosion of fruit this one. A plummy, jammy mixture of fruits in the top notes instantly make me like this, I’m such a sucker for that. I love Boadicea the victorious they can do no wrong in my eyes, I’ve tried about 12 in their vast range of fragrances and every single one has been great. I know there must be at least some not to my taste at least but I’ve not come across them yet. Similar to Amouage the fragrances seem complex yet crowd pleasing especially these fruity affairs.
The base is woody to my nose a smooth mixture of notes oakmoss, sandalwood, patchouli, amber and musk.
I love Glorius, sure it’s maybe seen as just another fruity musk fragrance and maybe a little on the feminine side to some but I think it’s lovely and very wearable totally unisex to me.
It’s got class and complexity in my opinion and lasting strength.
gxp242Unlogrere – :
I was really looking forward to trying this perfume. The bottle and the packaging give you the impression that you are about to experience something extraordinary and after applying one spritz on my skin I can confirm that I have never been more disappointed with a perfume as much I was disappointed with Glorious.
This perfume is just too sweet, i find it unbearable i am a big fan of sweet perfumes. I actually felt sick after about 15 minutes.
I sprayed about 3 hours ago and it is still very strong, so it definitely rates highly on the longevity front.
EMUREROITLECE – :
the bottle in the pic looks amazing, and if you sample this and love it..of course it would be worth the hefty price. But as for me…I’m glad I only have a sample because this is a bit jumbled. starts off like a fruit store and becomes very cloying due to I guess the moss and wood. not long after the sillage gets very poor, and it didn’t last on me.
DanKuzo – :
Strange. I wonder why the color is different?
mikeau – :
My juice is dark red and delicious!

It’s forceful, it’s feminine, it’s fragrant: It’s Queen Boadicea of the ancient Britons! Ignore her murderous rages and fearsomely unwashed druid advisors, lift up your noses and breathe deep; Stone Henge never smelled so good!
It tickles me to imagine some six foot red haired Celtazon checking the daggers on her chariot wheels, presiding at the sacrifice of a few Roman captives, then leading her armies to bloody rampage from Colchester to London, pausing to dab a little ‘Glorious’ behind her ears wrists and knees ,just in case she runs into Caeser. Two minutes alone in her perfumed presence and it’ll be ‘Cleopatra who?’ and the rebranding of our Iceni Queen as Empress of Rome. Sassy!
Well, maybe. ‘Glorious’ is a little rounder and more ordinary than Femininite Du Bois, the utterly beautiful Serge Lutens creation it resembles. The top notes in the Lutens fragrance are rather more delicate and subtle. Glorious starts off as a pleasant floral in a bottle that looks as though it should house Scottish whisky. Then it goes through hours of being nice but not exactly battle-turning.
But here’s the loveliness of it; something like 8 hours after I tested, my wrist has a distinct and very alluring scent of sandalwood and jasmine. Just perfect for an after pillage toga party!

Also, the juice is not Red but more yellow in color.

Finally got this in and have been wearing it all day. No comments but a frw people smelled it from the bottle and all 3 liked it and one wanted to oreder it. Very Fruity and I can pick it up on myself for about 4 hours but after that, I cant. It is either not strong enough to go past the hour mark or….it may be cloying and others may be able to pick it up on me and I cant. I love it but to early at this time to determine it’s strength.

This sounds soo good!
