A Review on Burberry Fragrances
by carnaval on Jul.05, 2009, under Fashion Shoes
Burberry fragrances are inspired by the classic and elegant image of the Burberry apparel. Each scent breathes an invigorating radiance. It’s crisp, urbane, dynamic and naturally fresh. The Burberry brand evokes an exquisite level of panache that sets itself apart from the multitude of fragrances in the perfume market. The black, red and white plaid design a.k.a. the Haymarket check is one of the most imitated brands in the industry today.
The luxury fashion house was founded by British designer Thomas Burberry in 1856. What started as a single shop in Haymarket, London, now the company is one of the most elite names in haute couture, fragrances and accessory collections. The British Royal Familiy granted Burberry the prized Royal Warrants award.
The first Burberry perfume, Burberry Men, was introduced in 1995. Women’s fragrances followed after its successful introduction in the perfume market. There’s Burberry Touch Perfume for Women , Burberry Weekend and Burberry Tender Touch. In the years that followed, more fragrances were introduced in the perfume world. The most recent perfumes to join the group are Burberry Summer Men and Burberry Summer Women.
Here are some of the best-selling perfumes from the Burberry fragrance collection::
Burberry Brit
The fragrance is a creative blend of the classic and the dynamic lifestyle of modern living. The Burberry Brit contains Italian lime, icy pear, green almond, white peony, sugared almonds, amber, mahogany, vanilla and Tonka bean. The fragrance was launched in 2003 by perfume designer Natalie Gracia-Cetto.
Burberry Brit Red
Another masterpiece by Natalie Gracia-Cetto, the Burberry Brit Red fragrance exudes a more edgy attitude. It’s provocative, more scintillating.

Burberry Perfume for Women
Simple and warm, the Burberry Perfume for Women contains the fruity accords of peach, apricot and marigold.

A number of perfume reviews agree that this fragrance is perfect for winter.
Burberry Cologne for Men
Burberry Men is dominated by wood accords such as sandalwood, jasmine and cedar. Its base notes are musk and vanilla. It’s the familiar masculine scent: sweet and tangy at first then leaves traces of woodsy accords in the dry down. This cologne is a perfect daily fragrance; longevity is good as it lasts all day.
