    Very peaty…dark, rich, wood smoke from a peat fueled fire…not very green, the green notes are almost undetectable…definitely reminds one of the isles of Scotland…how great would this be with on blustery winter’s day with a glass of whiskey and a bowl of cullen skink?…heaven…

    Smelled today in Selfridges London, very very strong scent of burning woods and smoke. A bit too much for me. Don’t get me wrong I do like it but it is very polarizing I am not sure if I would be able to wear it without offending anyone around me. The raw smoke and incense reminds me of Interlude by Amouage which IMO is better fragrance in terms of quality and aroma. They are not similar though just trying to explain the incense in Interlude is very raw and authentic and in the same way peet and burnt woods in here are very authentic. It reminds of bonfire in chilly nights.
    Unique fragrance

    Back from London and I finally own a bottle, yesss! It only seems to be available in one place in the world, Selfridges London. (Or -oops- not?? I just see they are supposed to be available in the US as well…) This scent is a must have for the lovers of smokey woodscents. This perfume develops beautifully, it does get better and better the longer you have it on. The bottle is a heavily chromed gem, I think it easily weighs half a kilo. The stopper seems to be made of solid metal. Classy brand, very exclusive and unique, love it! I’m keen to give the samples I got a try.

    The idea of a perfume using materials all drawn from a particular geographic region, while perhaps appealing in the abstract, seemed even at first blush unlikely to yield a perfume that could stand up to today’s fierce competition, when I read on the card that accompanied my manufacturer’s sample of Union “Celtic Fire” that it had peat from “the fens of County Derry,” fir balsam and pine needles “from the wilds of Aberdeenshire,” birch tar “from Inverness,” etc. Carded sample in hand, I was intrigued, but suspicious.
    The opening was a somewhat-interesting, though challenging, medley of sweetish smoky peat, evergreen scents, and the other less familiar boreal ingredients. There was perhaps just barely enough sweetness to appeal, and the smoke (I like smoke.) subsumed the other, potentially discordant notes under its mantle. Within 30 minutes, however, the smoke and other top notes had dissipated to leave behind a monolithic, strident note reminiscent only of some foul household cleaning product; in fact, most “pine” cleaners smell much better than this phase of “Celtic Fire.” Surprisingly, however, after another two hours (or so) of sheer olfactory torture (endured only in the name of science), the full dry-down unexpectedly became a relatively unobtrusive scent of the bitter/brisk sort, identifiably “masculine,” although upon close inspection a “wee bit different.” Although by then I was sick of the whole thing.
    I would therefore say that the ideal user of “Celtic Fire” is the sort of person who likes to spend 20 minutes in the morning being challenged by an “interesting” perfume, then has a two-hour car-pool or commute with people he consciously or subconsciously would like to asphyxiate, then has a conventional office job where only an unobtrusive but always-identifiable-as-“masculine” scent can be used by a male.
    A possible try for people who really, really, like Caron “Yatagan.” Otherwise, “Celtic Fire” merely disproves, perhaps conclusively, the geographic-perfumery postulate. Only the opening offers a bit of redemption. Awful.
    My score: 1.5/10

    I wore a thick wool sweater when hiking on Skye during a visit to Scotland, and I could never bring myself to have it cleaned afterward, because it smelled of lovely peat and I didn’t want to forget that rich, earthy smell. This fragrance is peat scent in 3-D. The green notes are there. This is on my fellow now, but I’ll probably try it myself at some point. I suspect I’ll prefer it on him, as it seems a fairly masculine scent. Sillage seems moderate and decent endurance as to staying power. This is a distinctive fragrance unlike anything else I’ve smelled, so you’d be sure to be the only one wearing this to whatever party you attend. Nice.

    i’ve just now learned of this perfume and have not smelled it. however, the notes listed bring me instantly the the scene in monty python’s holy grail wherein the peat gatherers are being repressed and eric idle is shouting “just because some watery tart threw a sword at you doesn’t that make you a king”. i’m glad there’s now a scent for that particular scene.

    Tested this one out today.
    It is certainly heavy and unique. It is dominated by the peat. I home brew beer, and have smelled peat when used as an additive to beer, and this is a dead wringer for natural peat. It is certainly a unique note.
    Like Lobster said, this one is smoky and meaty off the bat. Overwhelmingly so. It does get a touch more green as it settles, but you never stop smelling the meaty, smoky, peat note.
