London Burberry: The Innocent and Bright Side

London by Burberry
Floral
Dominique Ropion and Jean-Marc Chaillan

This fragrance from 2006 is supposed to represent a lovely spring or summer day in London. Not the typical rainy day indeed. I lived two and half-hour drive from London and this pretty sweet floral represents the rare sunny days in the city well.

As oddly as it sounds I smell mimosa, I almost get Rose Alexandrie by Armani Privé vibes. Yet, there is no mimosa listed but the sweetness is in all probability coming from honeysuckle and peony. It is a white floral but not as indolic or bubbly gummy as some white flowers can be. I think it is a classic rounded scent that is still relevant today if you are into feminine sweet florals.

The lasting power and projection are not bad at all, and price-wise it is a steal of a deal. It can also make a good present for a lady of any age.

The opening is citrus sweet and soft. The perfume presents many fruits and flowers, I think it‘s the largest collection I’ve ever seen in a fragrance. How does it wear? It’s a light one, daytime, feminine. The vibe around it is nice, can be pulled off at work. The dry down is soft again and creamy. Despite its cloying reputation, My Burberry is neither heavy nor overwhelming.

A pleasant daily scent for a modern lady.60/100
