Burberry Brit New Year Edition Pour Femme

I really enjoy this long discontinued fragrance. I came across it about a year and a half ago from a local discounter and decided to give it a try since I love the summer version of Burberry Brit. I was not at all disappointed. Although it is a NYE special edition, I find there is nothing about it that makes me think New Year's Eve. It's not a party scent or a deep winter fragrance for me. The bottle fits the theme more than it fits the fragrance. The mirrored silver does have night out vibes, but it gives me a much more cold impression that the fragrance does. Burberry Brit NYE SE is a spiced version of the original. The almond from the original is replaced with spices. Although I kind of wish the spices were in addition to the almond instead of replacing it. The original is a has a bright a juicy fruit opening while this one is warm and cozy with those spices present right from the start. The spices make this fragrance warm and cozy while the Burberry Brit DNA has a floral freshness. I love to wear this on cold, dreary spring days. The Brit DNA keeps it from being a cold winter fragrance for me. While the spices make it more cozy than I would prefer for summer. I have experienced great performance with this fragrance. It lasts 8-10 hours and projects at least arms length for most of that time. Just for the last couple of hours it stays pretty close to the skin. I find this feminine, but it is creeping towards unisex. I think it could work quite well on a man or for anyone that wants something that's not hyper-feminine. The candied almonds in the original EDP much sweeter and more feminine. While this edition is far less sweet and the addition of spices make it more unisex. If you are reading this because you came across a bottle somewhere, I think it's worth a purchase, but only for a great price. I think I paid $40-50CAD and was happy with my purchase. If it's much more that that just stick with the original which is widely available at discounters for heavily discounted prices.

This for me is one of the best of Burberrys. Elegan,t but warm and modern, not in this heavy way of many other winterscents. I love it and always get compliments for this. Realy wonderful !!! Can`t understand that others find this strong or masculin. On me it is absoulutely beautiful. Might be that the individual skin make the difference.

Today i had the chance to try this... this is nothing like the Original Brit (Btw i adore)... this spells really spicy like strong clove and cinnamon... not my cup of tea... a total dissapointment =(

Aahh! The sweet scent of Christmas. The website says this has notes of citrus and almonds in the opening, and then plum, baked apple,cinnamon, peony,pink pepper,cedar, sandalwood, amber and tonkabean. Opens very citrussy in true burberry brit fashion, and then the spices take over. More rich and interesting than brit original,because of the spices.I could not smell the pink pepper or peony on my skin The drydown is similar to the original brit with tonka beans as the strongest note. The bottle is not like the edgy grey pictured above, but a horrid tacky silver.Warm and cozy for the holidays.

Burberry Brit is quit special fragrance... in the biggining when I spray I smell some fruity/citrus notes mixed with just a little floral note. But then... one hour later.. there is no flower... just nice sweet smell of warm apple pie or maybe more of some citrus cake with cinnamon... not heavy or heady... not floral anymore.. just nice pie:)
