Energizer
A fizzing late-summer citrus that turns toward autumn, with bergamot and grapefruit over musk and vetiver.
Perfumer: John Stephen
The name Energizer points to the fizzing character of this citrus scent. Boadicea the Victorious frames it around late-summer citrus meeting the first soft breath of autumn's earthy musks, the moment the season begins to turn.
The top lists bergamot, grapefruit, petitgrain, basil, elemi and lemon. The three citrus notes are joined by the twiggy bitterness of petitgrain, the green snap of basil and the resinous brightness of elemi, giving a sunlit, sparkling start.
The heart moves to geranium and blackcurrant. Geranium's leafy edge and the tart fruit of blackcurrant shift the citrus glow toward a softer, mellower tone. The brand pictures this stage as a late-summer garden touched by a hint of autumn, where late-afternoon light mixes with shadow and slowly fades.
The listed base notes are musk and vetiver. The airy, foamy musk and the dry, earthy vetiver catch what remains of the citrus. Fizzing citrus leads into dry roots and soft musk, giving form to the light at the end of summer.
