Burberry Summer for Women 2011

When I got the big bottle of this in summer 2011 I wore it probably every single day that summer. I always wait until summer hits to wear it again or it would probably be gone by now because I still love this! It's very citrusy and Probably still my favorite summer scent in my collection.

I absolutely love this scent! Even with asthma is it light enough and bright to be a happy scent all year round. It doesn't last as long as I would like but I still wear it all year round for the daytime.

Perfect for summer such a happy fragnance but i love it mostly because i smell grapefruits

THis is decent. It's fruity, bright and very summery. The top notes are lovely but the fragrance fades far too quickly to smell much else. Overall, it is very reminiscent of a scented talcum powder. But if it weren't for that odd powder note and the zero lasting power then this could be a very nice summer fragrance. Last years Burberry Summer for women was far superior. IMHO, with this years you aren't missing anything. ;'/

CItrusy, floral and woody. Being in perfect balance not to find a manfully features this perfume had all chances to become my favorite. It makes so soigne and confident feeling but very subtle. My baby bottle was stolen almost new, but I still remember it's fresh scent. I would like it to be in a body spray or lotion which could be so perfect for summer.

All citrus... All summer... All energizing goodness. So much orange and grapefruit, eventually met with the woody dry down.... A bright, crisp, young scent that makes you think of fresh grapefruits in the hot sun..... Great power, impressive longevity... If you're a citrus lover, you're going to enjoy this...

I would really love to own this again. It is a beautiful, complex and warm summer + early autumn scent that has a unique profile. One detail: I very much got blood orange from this rather than orange, so I recommend searching for this one pre-loved if blood orange is your thing.

First impression is a huge blast of blood orange. No bitter or sour zest tones, just a big blood orange beeing cut up, seeping of sweet juice. Like in the Dexter intro. Unfortunately this only lasts about 10 minutes. The blood orange is replaced by miguet (lily-of-the-valley). Lots of it! To me, miguet is the olfactory definition of "Hello, I'm very nice but unfortunately I don't have any personality". After 6 hours or so, most of the miguet has worn off and what is left is a sweet sensual musky base. Casual and uncomplicated. A great scent while having some good rosé, that you don't want to overpower by wearing lots of perfume, on a warm summer evening with someone you like. If it wasn't for that pesky miguet this would be a great casual summer fragrance.

i felt like wearing a Nina Ricci frag or should i say DKNY because of the sweetness, anyways, it starts with sweet notes, my nose doesn't detect any particular sweet note per se but just sweetness, kind of synthetic to me, then i wish i can say flowers burst in and stuff but no, the whole frag starts to fade with a flowery note to give it justice!! as far as the three base notes mentioned above, the base note on my skin is my skin itself, nothing musky, cedar, etc... nada, till the whole thing fades away in an hour max; so, if you like that frag and don't have a problem with applying, re-applying and applying some more till you probably finish a bottle on one outing then buy it; otherwise, there are better choices out there

I agree with fellow reviewers that this particular perfume by Burberry smelled a bit too synthetic/plasticky compared to the other Burberry's . Its perfect for summer and its NICE....but that's it, nothing special...FADES away really quickly and does leave a trace of astringent scent (made it seem like cheap perfumes). Anyway, I was hoping for something more from Burberry.

Smells sour and doesn't stay long on my skin... Not my favorite at all even though I've tried other Burberry perfumes as well, it seems like Burberry isn't meant for me.

Completely plastic and artificial.

Since I'm going into Summer now on my side of the globe, I'm only just getting around to sampling the 2011 Summer releases. Burberry Summer 2011 is passable, but certainly not exciting, at least not to my nose. As per usual, this Summer flanker is heavy on the citrus accords and watery fruits. Orange is the most dominant note, being rather bitter and sour at times. My skin never works too well with citrus or fruits, so seeing that Burberry Summer 2011 is all about the fruity accords, on my skin it turns acidic. The heart is nice but predictable with soapy freesia and delicate rose. The drydown isn't any more interesting with a rather bland blend of cedar and musk. The scent does become less harsh as the fragrance settles, however the underlying orange note lingers on. Not that I find orange an unpleasant note, it's just not something that easily agrees with my skin or my nose. I still prefer Burberry Summer 2009 which was much more pleasant and less generic. Unfortunately I can no longer find the 2009 release, and in the next few months the same could be said of this fragrance, which is already gracing the discount stores.

Right now I really long for warmer weather. Spring is chilly and to cheer myself up I decided to treat myself to a summer scent. This has been sitting around on the shelf for quite some time. Other fragrances have been more tempting. Up until now. I can't say this is te best summer scent I have experienced, but it's not the worst either. And int really does the job. Today I felt in a more cheerful mode, despite heavy fog and cold winds. And I have received compliments from fellow workers on my new perfume. Fresh and fruity, with a nice hint of fresia is just what it takes to pretend that the spring we all long for is finally here.

Special going in our shops: 50 ml for under $30 makes this scent worth impulse buying. :) Amazingly nice fresh floral, in the vein of D&G Anthology L`Imperatrice 3, it's quite entertaining in its carefree summer vibe with an understated gourmandise touch for about half an hour, but then all together spiral into very boring tartness, meaning the scent doesn't really behave itself under heat (+ 26 C). A dilly of a perfume. Runs the risk of being thermally marginalized though.

I love the original burberry, i used it for yrs. sprayed this on a card in the perfume counter and put the card in my bag after sniffing it, long story short i love it!!!! Got it, fruity , floral, the topnotes are zesty, yum, and the drydown is gorgeous, perfect for summer, only gripe is the lasting power, is so poor, have to reapply it every few hrs in the day.But still love it, i will get through my 50 ml bottle in no time!!

I just tried this, and didn't really expect anything great, but WOW was I surprised! This fragrance is just lovely. Very summery and light and I just have to own it! What a good thing that I try to test everything available and don't judge anything before having tried it on. I am also crazy about the traditional Burberry "Burberry Women", althong it a lot different, but also a scent I only wear during the summer.

One word - fresh! I've owned this since the summer of 2011 and absolutely love it. I haven't limited it to summer alone. It has a great sweet-citrusy opening and lasts for a good 30 minutes. I don't get much of the middle notes but for the most part, this stays on as a great mix of creamy sandal and rose. It smells absolutely great! Lasts about 4 hours or so on me.

It is lovely, beach fragrance, perfect for summer. Lasting power is not much, you need to reapply it several times a day. I got a pair: "woman" for myself, "man" for my boyfriend. On me it's working in super-heat +45C

This is a nice summer scent. Nothing exciting about it, it's just fresh, light, and free feeling. I always think of oranges when I wear it. Definitely a casual day scent.

I didn't like this one. Burberry Sheer is much better and excellent for summer IMO.

Does not last well on my skin...for the first 2 hours is nice though :)
