So sorry to say...I recognise the sheer quality of this fragrance but it's too much for me. It has that urinal cake thing about it and insane amounts of rose and powdery iris notes. It opens with a mass of rose, oud, stinging sharpness of saffron perhaps? Then becomes smooth but beggers the question...what kind of sadist wears this juice? I don't know why but it makes me think of something a strong Historical woman would wear like Elizibeth I or something? I've tried this several times and application is the key. In small amounts (and I mean the tiniest of amounts) I can pick up very pleasing nuances but I can't imagine that a sprayer on the bottle would be subtle. One spray of this is all you'd ever need, it's HUGE! The drydown takes so long that eventually Kings road warms up but mainly it's an intense floral, woody affair. There's no way I'd wear it but I appreciate the craftmanship and materials used. It's a rare Boadicea if I don't really like it.
