My Burberry Eau de Toilette Burberry perfume – a fragrance for women 2015
This is actually the first My Burberry fragrance which I’ve smelt, and it was a blind buy from TK Maxx along with ArdenBeauty, this is a surprise like for me (so far).
I love the bottle and the cap, I also was intrigued by the concept; the iconic Burberry trench coat and a London garden caught in the rain. I love anything that comes across as a country garden in a bottle, so I was even more excited to tear into the box once I’d gotten home.
I want to start by saying about the bottle; I have a 30ml which doesn’t have the little bow, however it is a really satisfying size and weight so it still feels like a substantial product, I also love the cap which is meant to imitate the horn buttons on the Burberry trench, it looks very impressive!
The opening is, as the below reviewer said, alcaholy and akin to many fresh/sheer type scents, but after the initial burst I can smell a light Turkish delight type rose accord which never becomes overbearing or thick, I then get “wet” florals, and I don’t mean that this smells aquatic, this smells exactly how it was intended to smell; a garden in the rain. I can pick up a freshness from the freesia and thankfully, its not screachy or sharp, I can also smell some lemon blossom and a little peony in this, but its so well blended to my nose it is a little challenging to pick out these notes individually, after about an hour I can smell the moss note which really adds to the garden in the rain vibe this gives off, the moss notes actually remind me a little bit of Burberry Touch (which smells like a wet woodsy walk).
Silage is moderate and longevity is decent at about 6-7 hours from 4 spritzes, I wore this a few days ago when I went out in the rain and it really suited the weather well, I’m interested to see how this behaves during warmer spring days and the summer too, the more I wear MB the more I’m starting to like it, akin to how I felt towards Chloe when I first started wearing that.
Repurchase? maybe, we’ll see how things go with this bottle first
