Thick, resinous incense with citrus
I didn't know what to think of this perfume at first. Yet after a couple of wearings, Lush Icon has become a guilty pleasure.
It's a powerful fragrance, there's no denying it. It smelt like disinfectant at first, with strong pine and citrus. It was an intense olfactory experience, but once settled there's something very likable about Icon.
I get mostly honeyed and woodsy incense with subtle hints of zesty citrus. In some ways it's quite a masculine fragrance, so with that in mind, I'd label Icon as being unisex. The myrrh is somewhat of an acquired taste in Icon, being rather sweet and resinous. Although extremely rich and sometimes a little overbearing, I can't help loving Icon, particularly during this cold, rainy weather I'm currently experiencing at present time.
Icon is not necessarily a churchy incense fragrance, instead it's a dark and resinous interpretation. I like this fragrance because it's unusual and intense, however for some it may be a little too much.
Icon lasts quite well, however I expected it to be a lot longer lasting to be honest. I'm talking in terms of lasting a whole day. All in all, a very alluring and mysterious fragrance that does grow on you, that is if it doesn't captivate you at first sniff.
