Defender is the magnificent, perfumed incarnation of Boadicea, Queen of the Iceni, the iconic reference for the brand. 

Defender opens with a rebellious shout of zesty ginger, grapefruit and unexpected swirls of dark liquorice, honeyed cognac mingled with a compote of plum, raspberry and sour cherry.

Solar orange blossom heralds the arrival of Defender’s heart of Night Blooming Jasmine, an intoxicating flower with heady, licentious imaginings. This is supported by an alluring blend of atmospheric myrrh, and hay absolute suggesting Boadicea’s childhood, farming wheat and barley with her family. 

The other main note is a verdigris leather accord, created using Leather Fusion, a patented technology and seductive homage to the tactile nature of natural skins and hides. It counterbalances the floral fruity notes and evokes the hand-crafted leather armour worn by Boadicea as she rode into battle.

The base radiates amber and musk, birch tar, guaiac wood and patchouli. Peru balsam imparts vanillic and cinnamic facets and is further enhanced with rum-soaked dried fruits. Clary sage and labdanum lend the leather coating  of herbaceous salted honey. 

Defender demonstrates how echoes of the past have relevance today as we adorn our skin in such complex scented protection.

Love the style- sizing is a bit tricky online
Mini Melissa shoes always deliver on cuteness (and comfort). That said, each pair seems to be slightly different in terms of sizing! We ordered a size 2 and found that it was a little bigger than a recent size 2 we'd ordered. Still worth it, just a heads up that this might be a better purchase in person when you can try on!

Adorable!
Size: 7 Toddler, Color: Black
These little shoes are absolutely adorable! I got my 2 year old daughter the black sparkly ones. I originally ordered a size 6, but had to return & swap for a size 7. Not sure if this shoe runs a little small or if my daughter’s foot is just a little big. They are a soft rubber & they smell amazing (I know that sounds weird but when you receive them you will see what I’m talking about lol). They seem like very good quality & like they will last awhile, especially on a 2 year old who is hard on shoes!
