    I had a 30ml bottle that my Aunt gave me from US, I'm from Philippines, and when I smelled this fragrance for the first time without looking at any reviews, It reminds me of Christmas Season. I fell in love instantly, it gave me a warm, cozy, relaxing, feeling cold type of vibe!

    Glad to see a review of this outside of the holiday season, Ash. I've worn it between Thanksgiving and New Years for a few years now. No one else ever notices but I'm fond of it. Longevity is only 3-4 hours on my skin, though. I'm thinking I may take a break from it for a couple of years. I'm guessing after missing it for a while I'll likely have a greater appreciation for it.

    This was the fragrance that sparked this hobby. Blind bought it at ross minutes before they were about to close. At that time I wasn't a huge fan of it. I live in Hawai'i so it's not a type of scent we have around here but I grew to love it. I was popping by to find a fragrance that I'd keep in the car for when I go to the gym but the scent was so interesting and led me to blind buy a few more and that's when I discovered your channel. Hours of researching and learning everything.

    Hey, I just picked up a bottle of London a few weeks ago! I'm not exactly in love with it, the main reason being that I pick up kind of a weird "vegetable" note in it, especially in the first 30-60 minutes... I can't pinpoint what it is. Maybe I got a bad bottle? The dry down is much nicer with the cinnamon/spicy note. Performance is below average I'd say - maybe 4-6 hours and not much projection. I probably won't repurchase it.

    I scooped this one up a couple years ago right when I started getting deep into the fragrance game. I wanted a nice Christmas scent and so many people said this one was like Christmas in a bottle so I bought it. Now, I agree that it smells just like the holidays - it has the pine, the spices, and even hints of the brisk air. Love the smell. The issue for me was the fact that I literally could not smell it, even on my clothes, after an hour or so. Like it was totally gone. This has me thinking that it must have been reformulated at some point since it came out nearly 20 years ago.

    I will agree that it is a great scent and is a timeless scent. But the issue with the performance that Ash mentions here is much worse for my skin type. I owned this fragrance years ago and liked it when I got it, but it doesn't last hardly as much time on me. I can only detect it for like two hours and that is it, if that, but while it lasted it was quite nice. I always argued -- despite me not really liking these concentration flankers that are happening nowadays -- that Burberry should make a Burberry London Parfum or something similar to push the presence and performance of the original to a more passable outcome. Also, it is funny that Ash mentions D&G The One because in my experience with the EDP, it ALSO has pretty poor performance and I didn't keep it for long. To each their own, I'd say, but I like to have my fragrances last for at least a decent amount of time on skin instead of flying off quickly. But others have had better outcomes than me, so for them, I'm glad the fragrance works.

    is this fragrance suitable for a teenager? i just purchased it and really like the smell but i'm worried that the scent is too mature for my age

    Am I going deaf or has the audio been a little funky lately on vids? So bassy, voice sounds super muffled into the background.

    I’ve tested a lot of the Burberry men’s line at outlets. The scents just never really resonated with me.

      Same - in fact this and the original Burberry for Men are the only ones I've liked even a little bit and London is the only one that is distinctive and memorable in any way.

    I wish they made an EDP of this. It only lasts about 2 hours.
