Burberry Brit Summer for Women

This a fresh green scent with a hint of sweetness, it has been very humid and sticky, thunderstorms etc where I am and I have found in these conditions this scent really comes into it's own, it smells great for oppressive weather and gives you a feeling of clean zingeyness. I agree with Christinavictory about being reminiscent of a mojito, I totally got that yesterday evening during a storm! For me it starts full on lime tea and green pear, as it warms on your skin you get a sweet peony and creamy almond finally vanilla musk woodsey notes, very nice indeed could unisex in my opinion. I've found wearing it with dove body lotion seems to complement it well, I think it brings out the almond scent which stops it being to sharp. For EDT I found it's staying power good, though you feel so fresh when you put it on I did respray 2 or 3 times yesterday even though 1 or 2 would have been enough. I'm really pleased with this and it will be my go to in hot humid weather. Recommended to my friend who got a spritz on paper in the shop during her lunch break and it smelt horrid, when she sprayed mine on her skin she couldn't believe the difference they smelt like different scents, so make sure you try on your skin otherwise you might be unnecessarily put off a lovely scent.

This gem has surprising longevity for an edt. I sprayed it on at 9am this morning, and now at 5pm I can still smell it when I bring my arm up to my face. Other than the almondy base this perfume doesn't really resemble the original brit to me. It's dominated by the lemon note from the beginning to just before the end. The pear note is pretty prevalent throughout. My experience with this surprised me somewhat because I had read about how similar this fragrance was to the original, but I was not surprised in a bad way. This fragrance is pretty fantastic. It's the sprite to the original brit's latte if that makes sense. Where the original brit is more creamy this one has a little more bite. It smells fresh and clean without being soapy or sterile. I would say that it could be unisex, but it leans very much more towards the feminine, and I'm sure that's mostly because of the pear involved. All in all, I'm happy I purchased this one (at a discount from groupon *Cheer*). And I'm more than a little sad that this is only a summer fragrance.

Good choice for those who find the original a bit too cloying. A very fresh scent with a hint of sweetness in it. Almost certainly feminine, but not to a point of being girly girl. Just got this myself hours ago and so far I'm enjoying it. I got lots of green tea freshness which is balanced by the sweetness of the sugared almonds. I like it that way as it keeps the scent from becoming too syrupy sweet because of the sugared almonds or too bitter-green by the green tea. Of course other ingredients also affected the composition in some ways, but as a whole it is certainly to me a pretty balanced concoction. As I said, fresh yet sweet. Staying power is pretty decent for an EDT. This one is a sure compliment getter, provided if you use it in just the right amount. Highly recommended for just about any occasion, be it office or a special event. It is not so heavy so it is suitable for both day and night wear.

Delicious, delicious! I instantly and easily loved Brit summer. Light, fresh, sweet citrusy. Now this scent reminds me of Disneyland since I wore it there and I could smell it all day. It takes more sprays to get longevity but get some on your shirt and you'll be catching yummy candied pear-citrus whiffs all day. This is so fresh-sweet it is mouthwatering. I love lime and pear. Tea gives it a calming property and ensures this never becomes overly sweet or screechy. The sugared almond keeps it mellow-sweet. A perfect balance of calm/energy/fresh. Wear this for a friendly perk-up, or for summer of course. Try this if Brit was too heavy. I think I am officially a Burberry groupie. Now, time to scour the web for an extra bottle as back-up. Summer lasts 6 months here!! I'd love my summer to smell of this.

I almost didn't buy this. Citrus fragrances always scare me because I'm afraid they're going to be too sharp. But thank goodness, there really isn't any sharpness to this. It's like the lime was sugared down, I think someone mentioned lemonade? I totally get it! Like a super juicy half tea, half lemonade. I know there's no lemons in here, or technically straight sugar, but somehow that's what comes through in the beginning and it's awesome. It softens a bit to the peony but never quite loses the lemonade factor. That may be a negative for some, but for a fun summer fragrance I think it's great, both for the really hot days and for the light rainy days. It only comes in an EDT, but it's pretty long lasting for an EDT so at least there's that.
