Defender Eau de Parfum - Boadicea The Victorious
Liquorice and honey, which shouldn't work.
The opening is genuinely strange — honey, liquorice and ginger together, sweet and faintly medicinal. It settles into something balsamic and hay-like that smells of a warm barn, with myrrh and orange blossom in the middle and leather grounding the finish.

Heart notes: Myrrh, hay, orange blossom
Base notes: Tonka bean, Peru balsam, red amber, labdanum, musk, leather
Family: Leather

The story
Liquorice and honey, which shouldn't work.

How it wears
Top notes greet you, the heart settles in over the first hour, and the base is what stays on skin at the end of the evening.
