Boadicea Nemer

مرحبا بك من جديد أيها ال "ملل" ألا ترى أنك أصبحت تكثر من زيارتي هذه الأيام ألم تسمع من قبل بهذه الكلمات "زر غبا تزدد حبا" ولكني أعلم أن الأمر لا يهمك، فأنت على يقين من أنني لن أحبك حتى لو فارقتني للأبد من يعرفني جيدا يستطيع بسهولة أن يشم رائحة الملل بمجرد دخوله إلى غرفة مكتبي. كل شيء مبعثر بعناية ودقة تامة.. الأوراق، الكتب، الأقلام، زجاجات وعينات العطور المتناثرة هنا وهناك. في مثل هذه الحالة تبدو لي العطور وكأنها شيئا واحدا .. ليلتقي الملل بالضجر في مكان ما بداخلي. هناك من يهربون من هذه الحالة باللجوء إلى النوم. أما أنا فلا .. فغالبا ما أرى نفس الأحلام كل ليلة.. فقط أنام عندما ينفد رصيد الطاقة بداخلي ويصل المؤشر لعلامة الصفر. حسنا ها قد وصلنا.. تصبحين على خير يا نفسي.. أحلام ملولة لا أعرف متي تبدأ الأحلام خلال فترة النوم؟؟ قرأت مرة أنها قد لا تستغرق بضعة دقائق وربما جزء من الدقيقة مهما كثرت الأحداث. يبدو أننا بدأنا سريعا هذه المرة .. ما هذا الممر الطويل !!! ألا يوجد مخرج؟ يبدو أنه لا مفر من الاستمرار في السير حتى نهايته!! ليته ينتهي. ها قد وصلت إلى نهايته ولكنها للأسف نهاية بلا مخرج مجرد حوائط تحيطني من جميع الجهات.. هل يجب الآن أن أعود إلى الوراء؟ أم تراه الأفضل أن أمكث في مكاني؟ وبعفوية وجدتني استجمع قبضة يدي لأضرب بها هذه الحوائط لتتلاشى واحدا بعد الآخر بمجرد ملامستي لها ما هذا الذي أراه!! أيعقل أن هذا الممر الوهمي كان داخل هذه الواحة الأسيوية الرائعة طوال الوقت دون أن أدري. كثيرا ما رأيت صورا لشجيرات العود ولكم تمنيت أن أراها في الحقيقة. ولكني لم أتوقع أن تحيطني من كل جانب على هذا النحو البديع. ولكنها ليست كما اعتدت أن أراها إن السيقان حتما لشجيرات العود الداكنة أما الأفرع فهي من أخشاب الصندل الميسوري فاتحة اللون، وقد خرجت من براعمها ورود تركية ومغربية وربما بلغارية أيضا كبيرة الحجم تتساقط من بتلاتها قطرات الندى المتلاحقة لتتسابق أعواد الزعفران الإسباني الكثيفة في التقاطها قبل أن تصل إلى الباتشولي الذي تناثرت أوراقه القليلة الظامئة المنهكة طريحة الأرض ترقب مهارة الزعفران في التقاط قطرات الندى بيأس تام. ومن دون أية مقدمات تقبل الرياح من جميع الاتجاهات محملة بأوراق الياسمين البيضاء الدافئة. الذي ما أن يقترب من المكان حتى يبدأ في إحاطته بحركة دائرية بروانية ليتداخل كل ما هو موجود بالمكان من حولي سيقان العود - فروع الصندل - الورود - الزعفران - بقايا الباتشولي لتبدو الأخشاب الداكنة والبيضاء في وجود حمرة الزعفران والوردو وكأنها خطوط متوازية وتتسارع الحركة مع الوقت فتزداد الخطوط المتباينة وضوحا وتبدأ في الاتساق وفجأة تعم المكان صرخة أشبه بالضرضرة التي توقفت لها حركة هذا المزيج لينفرج المشهد عن "نمر" كبير في أوج قوته. وتمتد يداي بعفوية مدهشة للإمساك بهذا النمر قبل فراره وما أن تقترب منه راحتي يدي حتى أجد بينهما زجاجة Boadicea Nemer Boadicea the Victorious for women and men

When I first got the decant of this fragrance, it was a moment I received some bottles of other fragrances and some other decants – so I only smelled it quick from the small flacon and I did not struck me with the excellence this perfume really is – it was only after a couple of months when I was cleaning up my fragrance collection, I put it on me and I was overwhelmed with the quality and the smell – it’s so unique – I am normally not a great fan of roses in perfumes – but this rose blends so well with the saffron, patchouli and sandal wood ( I truly love sandal wood in fragrances ) – When I smelled it, I really wanted to buy a bottle, it has a great silage and the longevity is out of this world, this is a quality frag without any doubts but even with this high end price tag it might be worth it only I still have to convince myself buying it maybe with the 15% reduction Notino is offering today I might make the purchase this weekend, though I like Blue Sapphire, Valiant and imperial of this house as well.

I've spent the last 12 hours with Xerjoff Astaral on one arm and Boadicea Nemer on the other, comparing them side by side. Both fragrances are quite similar and impressively good, mostly staying close to the skin. Astaral is slightly less powerful in terms of lasting power and projection but still has a very appealing scent. I find myself repeatedly drawn to smell each arm, discovering a unique, slightly salty mineral quality in both, similar to the scent of a magnesium salt bath. While they are incredibly alike, Nemer stands out for its stronger scent, offering twice the intensity. This could make it the preferred choice for some, but Astaral's lower price makes it an attractive option as well. Astaral is definitely not falling far behind, offering great value. Both are worth trying for anyone interested in unique, skin-close scents. Given Astaral's more affordable price, I'm leaning towards purchasing a full bottle of it, but I'd suggest testing both to see which one you prefer.

Nemer is for people who prefer unconventional solutions and choices. It doesn't try to please you from the start, but shows the strongest parts of itself. And I do not believe that strangers will rush to compliment your fragrance. Camphoric herbal starter, blame cypriol with lemongrass if you are faint-hearted, that rolls into patch with tigerwood and only in the middle way, like behind the secret gate, you meet that bright rich rose that blooms. It is like having an adventure towards the aim. It reminds more of skillful essential oils blend for massage in exotic country. I totally loving it from start to finish, but I Am an aromatherapy junkie, it worth trying for perfume amateurs in niche section, yet not for everyone. Nemer triggers the interest and holds attention, leaving lots of unanswered questions.

Although rose accords are present, this is not a rose dominant fragrance. In fact, I would say this is more of a woody- cashmeran fragrance than anything else. The rose notes only play a supporting role. Typically, I find most rose centered fragrances to lean feminine. However, because of the woody aspects and the moss/cypriol combo giving Nemer some earthiness, this fragrance is perfectly unisex. Nemer last about 8-10 hrs on my skin with a small scent bubble. Overall, nice but not a must have for me. Update: This fragrance has really grown on me. I’ve been wearing it more, and the rose is more prominent than it was at first. Nemer borders on being too feminine for me. I typically like masculine fragrances. However, the scent is fantastic. I picked up a bottle.

600 for a less interesting and much much weaker version of Kilian Pearl Oud. I'm aware this came out first so perhaps Kilian copied them, but the Kilian is better on all measurables. Performance is very disappointing but smell is great with rose, iris, and a jet black leather jacket vibe. This is struggling on my skin after only 1 hour, and by hour 2 it's disappearing. Love this scent profile, hate the performance to price value. If you like this check out Pearl Oud before you buy Nemer, it's stronger and smells better IMO Scent 8/10 Performance 4/10

If you like Arabian fragrances then this one is hard to beat. Whats there not to like? This is too strong in the beginning but in a good way. Opens with a lovely Rose & saffron. Woody scent of oud and sandalwood join almost immediately. Excellent blending of all Ingredients in every way. When I went to a bank wearing Nemer today I got compliments from two strangers and this is my signature now. I wonder if a man could smell better than this. Samples are available on Boadicea website.

Charming fragrance,luxurious,almost decadent. Powerful and majestic, perfectly unisex. The union of Turkish and Moroccan rose is sublime, gives an enchanting and evocative trail. The sillage is strong, just a few drops, longevity is extraordinary (20 + h). Definitely among the best of Boadicea... it is fantastic! Sillage: 9./10 Longevity: 10./10 Scent: 9./10 Overall: 9.5/10

WOW! Is there something close to it from another brand?PLEASE TELL ME!!! I loved it from the first sniff. So special,wild and different.I get the tigerwood and something citrus/rosy.Not a typical deep OUD one.It is a little bit weird on the first 12 hours, but after that it is pure light rosy love. 580€ is a punch in my face... Update Review soon...

Very nice rosy woody scent, creamy, not harsh, middle eastern style. suits older women and men. If you are 35+ from the middle east then it is pure nostalgia, this scent has been smelled in mosques and in many homes. Personally i think this scent is very nice, but hard to find the right context to wear it

A wonderful woody floral with great performance and a gorgeous oud dry down that leans more on the meditative green side. Something sweet and slightly camphorous persists underneath that is really beautiful. Nemer is hard to describe, try a sample!

My official winter scent. Can’t wait for winter to wear it again. Very strong scent and lasts a long time. I get compliments every time I wear it with pure Oud perfume.

Nemer is a smooth woody perfume with a nice flowery touch that is perfect to wear during winter. Has an amazing projection. One of the best perfumes by Boadicea.

Beautiful rose woody and classy oud perfume. It lasts a long time and is very opulent.

One of the Best from the house, Period💯

This is a weird fragrance the progression of notes seem to go backwards! The opening is incredibly woody and Oud was the first thing I recognized but it's overpowered (no mean feat)and literally after a minute or so...Gone! This fragrance then begins to morph completely into a crazed scent which reminds me of public toilets. Really hate that analogy, it makes me sound like a philistine because this juice is one of the most opulent things I've ever smelled but unfortunately it has that eye watering thing of highly concentrated/industrial strength cleaning products. One tiny application and I can tell already this is up there with the strongest perfume I've ever got the chance to smell. It's not quite the urinal cake of Amouage Ciel man it's actually bearable. I get the rose aroma but it's very unconventional more like Turkish delight! Seriously that's what Nemer smells like and of course I assume they flavour Turkish delight with Turkish roses...so it makes sense. I know I'm a genius! :) So odd that the woods come on so strong at first and then transition not so subtly into a complete sharp floral bomb! I love saffron and I suspect that's where the sharpness is coming from, although with so many strong elements in here I couldn't pick it up for sure and I'm normally very sensitive to saffron. I thought Tigerwood was a golfer? well no wonder he gets laid so much if he smells this good, the woody element to this fragrance opens strong then sits gentle underneath for the duration of the experience. I can't help but admire this fragrance for it's gutsy approach and I'm positive many fragrance lovers will be bowled over by it, I am but not in the right way. It's weird because it doesn't smell of any of the component parts but all at the same time all of them at once...usually the mark of a great composition. Very high quality ingredients have been used and Nemer is a unique combination but everything is fighting for the limelight to my nose and as such nothing shines. Update: Oh yes the woods have come back out to play and the drydown is really really nice a such a contrast to that turbulent opening which lasts several hours.

It opens with a strong, earthy, animalic oud—dirty, but smooth. Within 20 minutes, the intensity deepens before the roses begin to bloom. By the 30-minute mark, you get a near-perfect rose-to-oud ratio, wrapped in a soft, creamy cloud. Around 40 minutes in, the Turkish rose takes the lead. This transition—where the rose starts to pull away from the oud—is when that slight medicinal note shows up (as others have pointed out). But it’s fleeting. Soon after, the rose and oud return to their duet. As it continues to unfold, the oud evolves into a rich, silky caress, softened by a sprinkle of powder. Then come the cameos: little pops of green, fresh (almost citrusy), and spiced notes that flicker in and out like fireworks. Then comes the encore. The animalic oud returns, but this time with elegant pairings—rose with patchouli, rose with sandalwood, rose with musk. As it settles, the whole composition wraps you in a warm, opulent blanket, rocking gently between amber/vanilla/sandalwood and powdery rose/oud. These dualities echo softly until the very end. What a show. This is wearable art. Truly gorgeous. Longevity is strong, though projection is questionable—at least based on my sample. You might need to reapply, but that may change with a full bottle. Because of its softness, it’s versatile and 100% unisex. It can be worn by anyone, anytime.

A criterion woody amber scent by Boadicea, this is a dreamy almost perfectly calibrated scent, that truly breaks the usual rose oud mould. The mixing of sandalwood, jasmine, saffron, Turkish rose with tigerwood oud yields a liquid that feels a bit unearthly. Opening with herbal aromatic notes, and moving to the rose dominated floral heart before settling on the lovely powdery woody base, this is a symphony that simply flows on skin. The unisex dessert like scent has moderate to strong sillage and excellent longevity. One of the best offerings from this house. Enjoy!

Not as animalic an "oud" as some others in the open, has a somewhat synthetic feel in the opening (might be the lemongrass and pepper) but it settles down fairly fast into a nice smooth spicy woods and slightly jammy sweet rose. Deeper drydown patchouli comes through, lending a nice earthiness. It's compared to Rasasi Boruzz Cambodia and I agree they are quite similar. Nemer has a sweeter and earthier tone though which I think makes me prefer it just a bit more, but there is a price premium for that. Good stuff.
