Holy cow, I couldn’t get this off of me fast enough! It’s very masculine, IMO, and SO strong it took about 5-6 washes which didn’t completely get rid of it. I hope I don’t sit next to someone on a plane wearing this, because I just might suffocate and die before the flight is over. Seriously, I find this fragrance overpowering and an assault to my nostrils. Just, no.

Iceni is the baby of Ambre Sultan and Un Bois Vanille. It is either a gourmand, vanilla-ish AS or a spicy, oriental UBV. It has absolutely nothing to do with ancient British Celts and their natural habitat but everything with the Orient and scents which only can be found there. Nevertheless, this is a delicate, delicious, warm, cozy fragrance I would totally buy, if I wasn’t already the proud owner of AS and UBV

Beautiful and so delicious at the same time. Iceni is a sticky, resinous, balsamic, dark, woody, chewy tonka and spice perfume that conjures images of a cake consisting of layers of pain d’epice, gingerbread and panettoni, oozing with dark, viscous molasses between each layer and finally drizzled with white icing. It’s as though Fille en Aiguilles, Arabie and Colors by Benetton got down and dirty in an unscrupulous ménage à trois. This smells like something that belongs in a Lutens bell jar, just–WOW.
Very holiday-esque, you really get the elemi/myrrh and pine needle scent, but the base is so sweet and cozy. Iceni successfully teeters the line between gourmand and incense perfume, never totally crossing the line too much in either direction, in a way I rarely encounter. I see this as a winter perfume, but it’s so magnificent goodness knows it will be hard not to wear it all year long.
Sillage and longevity are huge. A+++ for yet another ridiculously incredible perfume by Boadicea the Victorious. Words can’t express my admiration for this house.
(Update: OMG sillage is atomic! One spray is so strong I have to keep my head far away from my wrists for hours. I should just decant it and dab a teency bit on. I have a 100ml bottle–it will last the rest of my life!!)
