Wear Hooked first, decide later
Hooked by Boadicea the Victorious is a perfume, and this page is about trying it in a small size. No note list is on record with us for this perfume, and we do not guess one. A decant gives you time with it, which a quick spray on a paper strip never does. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.

On the skin
This page says little about what Hooked contains, on purpose: no note list is on record, and the sample says more than a guess. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.
Boadicea the Victorious Hooked has the status on request. The page is here so you can tell us you are interested; the sizes open up once we can fill the sample. We make no promise about timing. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another.
We fill Hooked from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and label it ourselves. The sizes are 2, 5 or 10 ml. Three sizes mean you decide how long you want to test. Pick the small vial if you only want to know whether you like it, and a larger one if you want to live with it for a while.
Testing it
Nothing on record ties Hooked to a season or a moment, and that makes a broad test the best one. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week.
We hold no data on who Hooked is meant for, so we do not label it. If Boadicea the Victorious is new to you, a small vial is a calm way to get acquainted. People who tire of scents quickly do well with small sizes.
The same perfume can be a favourite on one person and a miss on the next, which is the whole case for testing Hooked first. We decant from the original bottle and label the vial ourselves. Boadicea the Victorious does not make or endorse these samples; it is not an official brand sample.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.

No. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Hooked from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.
No note list is on record with us for Boadicea the Victorious Hooked, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
That depends on how long you want to test. The smallest vial is enough for a first impression of Hooked; the larger ones give you many wearings, in different weather and on different days.
The brand
103 perfumes by Boadicea the Victorious: that is our current list of samples from this house. Every sample is a decant in a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. In our shop Boadicea the Victorious sits with the niche perfume samples. A few small vials tell you more about a house than one large bottle chosen on a guess.

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
