Chelsea Boadicea the Victorious 2013

Premiere...my first comment:-)

For months now, I've been hesitating about this Chelsea and had not dared to try it (I was too afraid of too much medicinal oud) and then forgot about it again. Now a good opportunity arose and I seized it.
The package arrived, opened it, sprayed....and oh!
Oh yes, medicinal....of the very hardest kind.
I gave it some time and only after a few minutes the BIG SURPRISE! It transformed from medicinal into a dream of bergamot and vetiver. Delicious!
Bright dry wood, citrusy and enveloped by the most wonderful oud. Slightly edgy, yet still enveloping, fresh, and spicy. Towards the end, I find it a bit warmer, earthier....arrived. Wonderful!
A walk through a bright, sunlit forest, shortly after a spring rain.

On me, the sillage is only noticeable in the first three to four hours, after that I am surrounded by a very beautiful aura.
The longevity is about eight to nine hours.
The bottle....as always, a true treasure, like all Boadicea.
I am very curious to wear Chelsea in warmer temperatures.
Conclusion: Boadicea, my skin, and I...it fits!
