Hanuman, a creation of the prestigious perfume house Boadicea the Victorious, is a fragrance that challenges conventions and stands out as a unique proposition within the Floral Woody Musky olfactory family, intended for both women and men. This fragrance, launched in 2016, is an invitation to explore a rich and complex composition that manages to balance floral, woody and musky notes in a sublime way. Hanuman is not just a perfume, but a sensorial experience that transcends the ordinary, capturing the essence of a Hindu god who symbolizes strength, devotion and courage.

The top notes of Hanuman reveal a refreshing and energetic opening, marked by Orange Blossom, which brings a floral delicacy that blends harmoniously with the freshness of Bergamot and Lemon. This initial combination creates a feeling of luminosity and vitality, transporting the wearer to a sunny and fresh landscape, full of the energy of a new beginning. Blackcurrant, with its slightly fruity and acidic touch, adds a layer of complexity to the opening, balancing the citrus and floral notes with a sense of intensity and character.

Moving towards the heart of the fragrance, Hanuman reveals its true floral nature. Osmanthus, an exotic flower known for its fruity and slightly sweet aroma, presents itself as the soul of the perfume. This ingredient is complemented by Neroli, an orange blossom that brings freshness and a softness that blends perfectly with the other floral notes. Magnolia, with its rich and creamy floral fragrance, and Cyclamen, which introduces a green and slightly aquatic touch, add depth and sophistication to the heart of the composition. Together, these notes create a harmony of delicate flowers, but with a distinctive presence that envelops the wearer in a cloud of elegance.

The base of Hanuman is where the fragrance shows its true power and character, by including a woody and earthy blend that gives it exceptional longevity. Vetiver, with its smoky and earthy nuances, blends exquisitely with Cedar, providing a solid and structured base. These woody notes are softened by Musk, which provides a warmth and sensuality that lingers on the skin for hours. Amber, with its resinous and warm touch, adds an enveloping and mysterious dimension, while Sandalwood, with its soft creaminess, provides a velvety base that rounds out the fragrance and gives it a sense of balance.

The composition of Hanuman is not only characterized by its notes, but also by its ability to evoke emotions and inner landscapes. Each of the ingredients has been carefully selected to offer an olfactory experience that, while modern, retains a timeless quality. The fragrance has a presence that is both sophisticated and accessible, making it an ideal choice for those looking for a perfume that is elegant but not superficial. It is a fragrance that speaks of strength and serenity, of power and softness, all at the same time.

One of the most interesting aspects of Hanuman is its versatility. Although it has a predominant floral structure, its woody and musky complexity makes it suitable for use on both formal and informal occasions. It can be the perfect companion for an important meeting at the office, but it is also a fragrance that easily adapts to a night out or a more relaxed meeting with friends. Its balance between freshness and warmth makes it an attractive option throughout the year, regardless of the season.

In addition, the longevity of Hanuman is another of its strong points. Although its fresh opening may seem ephemeral, the woody and musky base lingers on the skin for hours, ensuring that the perfume remains present throughout the day without the need for constant reapplication. This durability makes Hanuman a high-performance fragrance, ideal for those looking for a perfume that will accompany them from morning to night.

Hanuman's sillage, while not overly intrusive, is noticeable enough to leave a subtle yet sophisticated trail in its wake. It is not a perfume that aggressively invades the space, but it does leave a lasting impression on those who are nearby. This quality makes it perfect for those who prefer more discreet fragrances, but still wish to leave a distinctive mark around them.

Finally, Hanuman by Boadicea the Victorious is a perfume that invites reflection and introspection. Just like its predecessor, Hanuman is a fragrance that invites reflection and introspection.
