Burberry Brit New Year Edition Pour Homme Burberry cologne – a fragrance for men 2010
Upon seeing this accidentally in the store, I immediately seized, rushed to the cashier and opened it!! Seeing the ingredients in this website, had made me waiting for it impatiently.
This frag is a wonderful thing: One of the rare scents that I like its top notes as well. Though it is common with its predecessor, original Brit, in nutmeg, rose, cedarwood, tonka and tangerine, but the pine and incence have made something distinctive out of it, in a very great way. It is more fresh, green and drier than the original version.
The smell at first is a bit sour and wonderful. Then quickly it fades into a strong pine and green platform, while mixed with green spicy notes of pine. It resembles like when walking between a jungle of pines.
The dry down phase will keep the heart notes as well, just becomes sweeter and more woody.
While original Brit has 80% Vol., this one is 78%, as being indicated on the flacon, by the producer. But this concentration has upgraded nothing special in the longevity.
It really is a wonderful smell for Christmas time. The chill and a touch of snow would complete it.
Mr. Maisondieu has made this one, too?
Score: 9 of 10.
*** UPDATE: I wore it today in a snowy day. In the snow and chill, it makes a divine feeling that would fly your spirit. Now I see why it was released for Xmas. The pine miracle in this perfume, in collaboration with incense does really perform something wonderful. People too gave me comments at work, today.
