Which Should You Buy?
Notorious is a bold, complex beast of a fragrance. It's not for the faint-hearted, nor is it a blind buy, but those who 'get' it absolutely swear by its smoky, leathery depth. A true love-it-or-hate-it scent.
A divisive one, this. Boadicea's 'Rebellious' is a polarising saffron-heavy scent that some adore for its smooth blend and luxurious feel, while others find it too subtle, too feminine, or just a bit… 'meh'. Definitely not for everyone, but a gem for those who get it.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
With strong sillage and longevity, Notorious is far too potent for the office. Its unique, bold character makes it an excellent choice for a statement on a date or an evening event, though it's too intense for everyday wear.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and warm, sophisticated profile make it a strong contender for date nights and formal settings. While some find it airy enough for day wear, its rich character makes it less suitable for casual or office wear, especially given its luxurious impression.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Warm Spicy, Woody, Leather accords and Rose, Sandalwood notes
