Burberry Summer Men 2009

I am always impressed with the Burberry Summers (mens and womens both) but am loathe to pay those retail prices! Luckily, I got this at Marshalls for under 20 bucks for a 100ml EDT...and it is great!! This is not a watered down version of Burberry Men. It is its own fragrance, I loved the first one (with Burberry written in rope on the bottle) but passedon it, as I was filling my collection with regular releases from my favorite houses. When I saw this in a discount store priced so very reasonably, I felt blessed by the perfume gods! This begins with a lovely cool citrus cocktail composed of yuzu (yum!), lime and green apple-bitter, fresh and sweet all at once with an almost palpable juiciness-and just enough mint to accent these lovely notes without overpowering them, bringing out the zestiness and pulpiness but not letting it get too tart or sweet. Stunning! The caraway and driftwood add some light spice and a beachy woody feel to this while the citruses are still detectable. The woody sweet drydown of cedar, musk and warm amber remind one of a summer evening: relaxing, smooth and luxurious. Everyone who has smelled this on me has asked me what it is and where to get some! If Burberry Man is a suit, loafers and plaid-lined trench coat; then this is a day on holiday with khaki cargo shorts, bright colored polo and plimsoles at the beach. :-) Sillage: great Longevity: very good Overall: 4.5/5 Most citrus scents fade too quickly for me, but I keep on sprayin'! This reqires very little if any re-application, and the next day it is still detectable on my shirt. A very, very well-made summer scent and though I liked the 2010 version, I find this to be the best BS yet!

Its really2 fresh aromatic citrus,I love it..make me feels fresh along day..citrusy,sweet,fresh all blended in this scent..top notes for opening fragrance is very citrusy,next woody and the base notes is calm sweet fragrant..TOP perfumes..love it..

A pleasant fruity and medium longevity juice. It goes a little dusty after a while, but it's really nice. Then it ends up similar to Starwalker (which is a bit nicer) The silage is a good one. Excellent Summer fragrance.

Great scent very clean and fresh and still masculine!! One of my faves.

A very good summer scent that projects quite well and makes you feel refreshed! The cold, yuzu-filled opening surely reminded me of some candied fruit I used to eat back when I was a child - It was fragrant, citric and zesty. Then it settles readily to a warm, woodsy musk which sits close to the skin. Whenever I smell this it reminds me of a wooden boat full of lemons. Weird, yeah. And since I live in a tropical country, this lasts around 2-3 hours and pops out at random times when I thought it was gone. This is a scent perfect for those days you just want to have a picnic or walk by a grove where the sun shines fully at you. Inoffensive and relaxing, but not totally unique though, especially the drydown, which I find similar to many other colognes I used to wear.

Wonderful scent!! The citruses that open up the top notes are divine! Neither citrus is completely dominant but more of a combination of all yuzu and lime with a touch of mint. The opening is so fresh, perfect for spring. The cumin adds a nice manly hint of spice to the citrus/fruity opening. The musk and cedar in the dry down complete this summer/spring scent by grounding it with some earthy tones but still make it so that its fresh and just completely wonderful!

Opening notes - Cool and refreshing and goes well with tropical climate. Mint and lime always makes it a nice combination to give that feeling. Quite strong Base notes - Musk effect is all over the base note and the smell is lovely to have on all day. Lasts comparatively long. On my skin - It stays on quite ok and recommend for summer with out a doubt.
