Boudicca Wode edp (Scent) is an interesting fragrance. Not to mention that the edt starts off bright cobalt blue on the skin, then disappears.
It is said to start off smelling green, but I get serious leather underladen with green. Then Black Hemlock is supposed to kick in, ending with some tuberorse, though neither are listed in the notes. (Both Ormande Jayne for men and Ormande Jayne for women have Black Hemlock, the only other fragrances I know that do. I like both of them.) I get no tuberose, thankfully, as that usually takes over everything.
Wode (Scent) Notes
Juniper, Cardamon, Nutmeg, Clary Sage, Corriander, Angelica Root, Saffron, Tonka Bean, Styrax, Amber, Treemoss, Musk, Leather
The Price all from Lucky Scent
edp sample $4 for .7 ml or $165 for 150ml or
Wode (Paint) – edt – with disappearing Blue Paint $140 for 150ml — the juice is bright cobalt blue when applied, then the color vanishes. Sounds a bit fun! I’d like to try that before I bought it, though.
My impression is walking on a windy night in a dark forest after the rain has passed through in a fierce rush, leaving sparkles where moonlight touches beads of water on the leaves. The scent mingles with wet leather gloves and walking boots. This is an airy scent; it is not shimmering with heaviness the way Neil Morris’ Gotham, Dark Season or Dark Earth hit the senses.
It continues to soften as it is worn. The leather is still apparent.
Do you wear this one?
Which form did you buy?

Sounds interesting. Real woad, the blue dye that the Celts used to paint themselves before war, smells really awful — esp since urine was the alkaline of choice usually used to release the dye…. this sounds like it smells much better than the real thing….
I guess! Must have made them seem even fiercer.
