Mr. Burberry Indigo

#updated review. Note to self, you should definitely live with a fragrance for a while before reviewing - I reviewed this too quickly before and I don't think appreciated enough. This has become my favourite signature of the moment, reaching for it more often than not. I originally said it was similar to Bentley for Men Silverlake - and yes it is -BUT this is hands down the better option. Get the Bentley if you're on a tight budget and be happy with it, but to me on dry downbit as this harsh synthetic sort of acetate smell in the background., Indigo just smells quality, and very aromatic and clean all the way through. It's probably a very safe scent, so possibly boring for some, but honestly it's just dam lovely wearable anytime option. I would say if your building say a 10 scent collection - make this one of the 10- having been living with this for a few weeks now, it's easy 10/10 for me, but note I'm a mid 50s fairly boring dude, so it's likely not going to be as good for the younger party crowd.. performance wise it's decent not beastly - 6 hours I think for that pleasing scent bubble around you- you can still smell it much longer after - but that's when you pick it up off your skin. Original review: This is an excellent blind buy safe versatile mint forward fragrance that balances freshness with just the right amount of sweetness. Mass appealing type wear anywhere anytime scent. However, it smells very very similar to Bentley for Men Silverlake which you can pick up for about half the price. I've done side by side comparisons on skin, and they do smell so similar, you'd be hard pressed to tell which is which. I think Mr Burberry is a tad more refined and smoother and a pinch less sweet, but honestly to my nose it's so close that either would do the same job.

This scent is considered safe, nothing ground breaking and is compared to other fragrances like Acqua di Gio Profumo, but I’ve smelled most that this is compared to and I find that this is the younger brother that has his own unique twist. Trust your nose and try it, especially if you’re knit picky. Wear what appeals to you for enjoyment. I actually find this one very refreshing and prefer this to........ It’s perfect for spring casual wear with jeans, T-shirt and going out for the weekend; out and about. This fragrance is minty fresh and the rosemary adds a certain sweetness, further balancing the mint to make it a bit more sophisticated, without trying so you can wear that sports coat into the spring night and it’s still pulled off effortlessly. The oakmoss base intertwining with the violet add that edge to give it character. Like most say; this isn’t groundbreaking, but I don’t think it’s meant to be, like Baccarat Rouge 540, Lumiere Noire Pour Homme, Ultra Male or Grand Soir. Look in your closet; you have that clubbing outfit that gets you lucky or that suit outfit that makes you GQ material, which suggest the other fragrances that would fit appropriately with the occasions. Yet, you also have that road trip favorite pair of distressed jeans and T-shirt outfit that makes your day effortlessly and confident. I believe Mr. Burberry Indigo is the fifth sense to complete the look. Francis Kurkdjian is no mannequin. I love this masculine down low fragrance and will definetly rock this when I’m chilling. It’s a wardrobe staple. Also working at the office crowd pleaser.

Yet another fragrance doomed to catch hell from almost everyone on this site. It's going to get bashed for smelling too trendy, generic, cheap, so on and so forth. Thing is, does anyone like anything around here? Every release gets treated like garbage. And yet you find that the product sells like crazy once you start shopping. So...this thing is great. Yes, it may feel like it's part of a trend in perfumery. Luckily it's not another sweet fruity invictus thing. It's not for the party going 20something (at least not to my nose), and while I haven't had a chance to wear for a long time, i'm not expecting long life from it. IN my case that is true of most fragrances. So how does it smell? Damn good. get your nose on it if you can sample it and you will probably like it. The opening feels mature without feeling old, which is a great achievement when you're talking oakmoss. violet seems to come to the surface pretty soon and while I'm not a huge fan of violate, i find it pleasant. Reminds me of the violet note used in Bvlgari man. It's strong and almost spicy. Overall I find this a pleasant release, and thanks to a great sales promotion at Macy's I was able to get 1450 for a good price in terms of $/ml. It's still cool in the northeastern USA and for me this is perfect. Looking forward to see what happens at when it warms up. cheers and enjoy your fragrances...even if everyone on this site tells you it's crap. It's yours, on your skin, and if it makes you happy, it's worth wearing!

Incoming hate reviews. Looks like almost everyone hates "generic" fragrances nowadays. This is the fourth day of me trying Mr. Burberry Indigo. And I can say is that this fragrance is your typical freshie scent. Nothing compared to Mr. Burberry EDT or EDP. It's safe, fresh and the mint man. The mint here is blended magnificently which made the scent really smells ohh so good! Pretty versatile perfume, though I would only wear this during casual/daytime. I do not see it wearing in super cold climates. Longevity is not the greatest about 3-4 hours on my skin. Projection is pretty good on the first hour mark. It projects strongly, but quickly dies down to skin or closer scent afterwards. It is a safe blind buy for me. I really love the scent! Better than his two brothers(or cousins)! But the performance is quite lacking. It's a new fragrance so it's quite expensive. For now, I would prefer the cheaper Hollister Wave than this or better yet Dylan Blue. I would really love to give a high remark on this if only it performed better!

Very, very nice. This one has grown on me. I sampled it probably a dozen times before I finally purchased a full bottle. Other reviewers have compared this to fragrances in the John Varvatos Artisan line, Polo Blue, and Bvlgari Aqua, and more. I honestly don't find this similar to any of the above. Easy enough to find in major department and cosmetic stores (eg Sephora, Ulta), it's definitely worth testing, but different enough that I'd avoid a blind buy. The balance of mint, herbal notes, and amber is delightful. The violet is very smooth, not piercing or scratchy in the least. The ingredients feel very high quality. In fact, if you told me this was a new release from Creed, I'd believe it. It feels green in sort of the same way that Green Irish Tweed feels green (but it does not smell like GIT), like garden-fresh and slightly earthy. Versatile enough that you could pull this off at just about any time of year. I'll be reaching for this one often; it may even be signature scent worthy.
