caption_attribution_description: English: Perfume Palace during US occupancy.
context_page_description: Camp Slayer was a US military base in Iraq, an annex of the Victory Base Complex, established early in the Iraq War. Located on the southeastern corner of the Baghdad International Airport, it was part of the former Al Radwaniyah Presidential Complex and contains several man-made lakes, a man-made hill, the Ba'ath Party House, the Victory Over America Palace, Perfume Palace, and dozens of smaller luxury homes for Ba'ath Party notables.
  During the Iraq War, it was most notable for being the headquarters of the Iraq Survey Group until 2005.
context_section_description: The Perfume Palace was untouched during the US shock and awe bombing campaign due to its circular dome, which closely resembled a mosque.  Following the invasion, the Palace was used as the main headquarters of the Iraq Survey Group and received minor damage from insurgent mortar fire, during the US occupancy.
