The name Andraste references the Celtic warrior goddess said to have been invoked by Boadicea before battle. Boadicea the Victorious translates that sense of strength into a fragrance inspired by the heightened atmosphere of a secluded walled garden — flowers, herbs, foliage, warm air, dark earth, wood, and the suggestion of an approaching storm.

The composition begins with bergamot and lemon alongside aromatic eucalyptus, thyme, elemi, golden saffron, and smoky Lapsang Souchong tea. An expansive floral heart follows, combining honeysuckle, jasmine, rose, wisteria, and powdery orris. Ambrette seed, guaiacwood, leather, oakwood, vetiver, musk, and incense then anchor the fragrance in a warm, woody and subtly smoky base.

Andraste begins with an unusual combination of sparkling citrus, cool eucalyptus, herbs, saffron, and smoky Lapsang Souchong tea. The opening feels aromatic and atmospheric rather than conventionally fresh, immediately giving the fragrance a distinctive identity.

As it develops, rose becomes the focal point alongside jasmine, honeysuckle, and wisteria. Orris brings an earthy, powdery texture while the smoky tea and herbal facets remain underneath. Leather, guaiacwood, oakwood, vetiver, incense, musk, and ambrette gradually deepen the composition, leaving behind a floral fragrance with woody, smoky, musky, and leathery character.
