Thoughts on Burberry London - Page 2
Question:
Does anyone know when this will release in Norway or Scandinavia? All of the other fall-releases are here except for this (and Antidote).. If not, has anyone got their e-mail address? Answer: Just want to chime in and say I've had great experience with the frag and simiarly do not have any longevity issues...getting an easy 8 hours out of it. It definitely does evolve, but that base is still there at the end of my day. I guess it just reconfirms what is so often said here, that any fragrance experience is simply something unique person-to-person. I have leaned that there are indeed fragrances with true longevity issues (e.g. when 100 people post here and say the same thing about a certain Hermes citrus) and at the other end there are staying power monsters (e.g. overwhelming volume of reports of Joop and A*men.) Everything else for me falls somewhere in between, with no way to reliably know other than through personal test drives... Answer: After loving the sample, I bought a bottle this past weekend. It's just great. Answer: smelled it in GQ and it smells like christmas! pies and mulled cider -- anyone think its too overpowered by cinnamon? i just smelled it in a magazine strip so that might affect how well the other notes settled but all i got was the smell of spice sacks Answer: Originally Posted by sbbbjm anyone think its too overpowered by cinnamon? nope. much less cinnamon than Brit Answer: JoelCairo - your post upthread regarding Christmas Eve is spot on, and nicely written to boot. I'm wearing London today - still using the sample before I crack open the cellophane on the bottle. The sample seems to be at least twice as large as some others. I don't have any problems with longevity either. It's funny, because London is one of the few frags where I can smell it on myself. Most of the time I can't. Answer: London is very long lasting on me. The drydown is superb, easy going, fresh and exhilirating. Potpourri, tea, leather, candied fruit and smoke. What's not to like! Answer: Originally Posted by perfectfeet I just picked up this gem yesterday. I love it and think everyone here should try it!!! I'm picking up tobacco, tea, wood, leather and spices so far. So rich and delightful! My only fear is that they start carrying this everywhere (like target, wal-mart, meijer, k-mart, etc) and everyone gets it. This is the case for burberry brit if you ask me. Hopefully this is a limited edition or release and doesn't become super-popular. I highly reccommend checking this one out. It's really great and rich. So its nothing like the orig Burberry then? I hope the answer is yes. Answer: so i sampled this the other day on my skin and all that xmas spice and woodiness was the top notes for me. its drydown smelled just like Love Potion No. 9 by Penhaligon's Answer: Tried it yesterday. Stylish bottle, promising pyramid, smells wonderful, though very light, gone in 15 minutes and I mean sucked-into-a-black-hole gone. I'd love to wear this bit I'd need full-time irrigation Copyright ? 2006 - 2007 www.thankhealth.com Privacy Policy
