Boadicea the Victorious Now at LuckyScent

post #1 of 32
Thread Starter 
I really wasn't looking for anything in particular on LS, and just stumbled upon their page there. This is a line that has been on my radar for some time and now I finally have the chance to sample them!

I thought they might jump on that bandwagon after the Obama-endorsement....although the latest news I read this morning was that Mrs. O favours Love In White *shudder*.

What's the deal with the two different shaped bottles? Is that differntiating between masculine and feminine scents?
post #4 of 32
Appears that the men's come in the rectangular bottles, and the women's in the circular bottles (although the men's are also available in an alternative circular bottle).

Full list of available scents here:

http://www.luckyscent.com/shop/categ...ictorious.html

I thinkt he link posted above was specifically in the men's section (although one women's scent is listed....not that I believe they should separate them in the first place).

Aha, makes sense. Thanks for the correct link.

And I think that's only some of their offerings...

So are there any stand outs?

Thank you for sharing.

I last bought MP&G Parfum d'Habit, so I will have to put some of these on the "to try" list.

Complex, Exotic, Explorer and Seductive sound particuarly nice. Especially the first two. I'm not going to hold my breath though.

Does it ever end?

Same here - it's like Montale v.2

... and for the record, I LIKE Love in White. (hmmph.)

The ones I think I'm going to order are Exotic, Explorer, Invigorating, and Powerful. I think I read someone on here say that Complex made MKK look tame.

16 Scents.

$265 for 100ml.

Ouch! Going to put this on my "to sample" list anyway! Thanks for the heads up!

I just ordered all the mens bottle samples. Always wanted to check out this line. We will see when they come in. Should get it tomorrow or the day after.

This sounds right up my alley. I love dirty scents.
I hope your right.

I've been searching for info about these. Luckyscent is the only place i can find this description for Exotic.

http://www.luckyscent.com/shop/secti...us/Exotic.html

Here is the description from Harrods.

http://www.harrods.com/HarrodsStore/...00000001857262

This, along with Complex, is the one i am looking forward to the most. The black truffle sounds very interesting.

I hope LS is accurate.
post #20 of 32
Anyone else think the names are bit like Axe or various Old Spice deoderants?
post #21 of 32
I WANT you guys to try Complex...just to see how unbelievably nauseating it is
post #22 of 32
Holy crap!. I just my sample order from Luckyscent on this line. All I can say is these are.....horrible!! These are some of the most unrefined, confused, nauseating home made smelling scents I have smelled in a long time. I rarely react to scents like this but I had to say I was very very disappointing. These scents are as simple and boring as their names. I had high hopes for this line!!

Cairo, which ones did you try?

Is this any connection to Wode? I tried that and didn't like it. Just heavy-handed incense.

Kumquat I believe that Wode was done by Boudicca, this is a completely different company. And I agree, I did not care for Wode.

Well, Holy Cow! No wonder I was confused! Thanks for clearing that up.
I couldn't picture Michelle Obama going to that place to try that one lame 'fume.

I tried complex, exotic, explorer and powerful. I have yet to try the other 5 but I am honestly worried about trying them!
