- What makes Burberry London so likeable and a feel-good scent?
The whole scent is centered around a dry/powdery, hay-like tobacco, but equally powerful is the resinous element giving it sweetness and a warm, balsamic quality. To brighten up the scent, there is a slightly sour, almost metallic, fruity tinge along with lavender and dry cinnamon creating a sweet foresty scent.
I totally agree. I fell in love with this fragrance at the first sniff. In fact, for me, it is light enough to be worn all year round.
Perfect winter office scent; Cold weather vibes but airy masculine with medium performance. This was meant to be in an office more than anything. Looks great side by side with Polo green in the winter lineup- its sort of like the elegant daytime office version of Polo green.
This was the fragrance that got me more seriously into this hobby. I've gone through a few bottles and I bought it when it first came out. Still have a few bottles. I will never be without it.
Absolutely love this one. As you said it’s quite cooling and also festive. Clearly it’s not using the mode complex or most luxurious ingredients so to me it’s a genius job creating such a scent with the economic limitations. As you said it’s synthetic but good.
Basically if we could get an unlimited budget Burberry London version I suspect it would be everything I wished the Frank fragrance would be.
Excellent detail and description; thank you.
I consider Burberry London as one of my group of 1990's/early 2000's light and airy tobacco scents. Those are fragrances that were released in a span of about a decade that share a similar scent profile and have (all but one) tobacco. That group consists of Aramis Havana, Dolce&Gabbana Pour Homme, then a little later in the '90's Versace The Dreamer and Chanel Allure Homme (this one I think doesn't have a tobacco note), then Burberry London. I originally bought Burberry London because I was searching for and collecting cinnamon fragrances. I think London does have pretty prominent cinnamon, I think 3rd accord from the top on Fragrantica.
Those are such good comparisons come to look at it
It's a solid scent for Fall/Winter but it took me forever to finish a 1oz bottle. John Varvatos Vintage is a step up from this scent. Wore that scent yesterday. Sean Jean 3am is my SOTD.
I love Vintage as well! I still haven't tried Sean John 3am haha
@@UrbanDwellerNYC Compliments on the first day for 3am. Two sprays in the morning and refresh at lunch. Four sprays bounces off my skin.
And in my opinion John Varvatos OG is a step up from Vintage.
It’s a nice transitional scent when I want some spiciness without the really heavy sweetness. My sotd is John Varvatos by John Varvatos.
A fantastic scent of the day and in my top 15 overall. I love that very dominant sweet, juicy, chewy-textured date fruit note, sweet spices and leather accord underneath.
Definitely agree it’s more fall
London is in my top 5
Great discription! A+
Well described!
I'm debating whether to get this or Mont Blanc Explorer. Burberry London is £20 cheaper but I'm worried that it wont go well in the summer and I'm looking a good, not overused and somewhat budget aftershave for the office all year round. Please may someone help :)
edit: Thoughts about polo red too pls
I own and love both. As an all rounder I'd go for Mont Blanc Explorer.
Its a great fall scent, or wearing black at night
Saw your review on john varvatos vintage. Burberry london vs jv vintage, which is better?
Totally different kind of scent, but I prefer JV Vintage easily.
It is a BRITISH smell. Through and through.
christmas in the bottle with very poor longevity
