Ardent is respected within the community as a quality rose fragrance that impresses even those who typically dislike rose perfumes. However, the fragrance is significantly limited by Boadicea the Victorious's premium pricing, which prevents mainstream adoption and discussion despite positive reviews from those who have experienced it.
