When you think of Burberry, images of the signature tartan print come to mind. But the luxury fashion house is good for more than just the iconic trench coat and timeless accessories.
Founded by Thomas Burberry in 1856, the luxury British fashion house has been crafting signature fashions and accessories for decades. In 1981, the fashion house extended its reach to luxury fragrances.
I’m personally a fan of Burberry fragrances because they’re everything I want in a perfume: something that’s timeless but feels fresh.
Burberry does not have an extensive line, rather they keep their perfumes to timeless and classic scents. The perfumes have a quintessential British style that are sophisticated.
Maybe you’ve never thought about reaching for a perfume bottle from the fashion house, or maybe you’re in the market for a new fragrance.
Scroll below for the 7 best Burberry perfume for women.
What a gorgeous floral and fruity scent!
‘Burberry Her Eau De Parfum’ is a delightful fragrance with primary berry and floral notes and undertones of amber and woodsy scents. They all combine together to create a beautifully delicate, feminine fragrance that can be used year round.
The berry and floral notes aren’t overly powerful to make this perfume too sweet, nor are the undertones too loud to make it musky or earthy. It’s the perfect balance.
It opens up with an intense strawberry scent, but fades into floral violet and jasmine notes. It finishes of with a creamy base of musk, amber and vanilla.
This makes for a sweet, silky, woody experience that makes this perfume grown up without being overly mature.
The perfume for the refined individual.
The perfume opens up with a crisp sugared, caramelized pear and lime. There is also a candied almond scent. The candied almond is sweet and warm but balanced by the fruit.
The crispness dries down to a delicious vanilla, tonka bean, and amber base. It overall feels creamy with a subtle sweetness from the vanilla and tonka bean.
‘Brit’ is a nice everyday scent; it is not too loud or overpowering.
“Burberry London Eau de Parfum” is a fragrance that captures the essence of the British capital with a unique blend of traditional and contemporary elements. The tartan pattern adds a touch of British charm.
The scent opens up with a delightful mix of honeysuckle, rose, and tangerine. It has gentle top notes of rose and honeysuckle and goes deeper with tiare flowers, jasmine and peony. It’s a sweet and floral introduction that feels bright and welcoming.
As it settles, the heart notes of jasmine and peony add a touch of sophistication and femininity. What truly distinguishes “Burberry London Eau de Parfum” is its base notes.
The rich, woody notes of musk and patchouli provide depth and warmth to the fragrance, making it perfect for the cooler seasons.
These notes create a cozy and inviting aroma that lingers on the skin. It is a bright and feminine fragrance.
If you love vanilla, this is the Burberry fragrance for you!
The trio of vanillas at the heart of this fragrance creates a harmonious symphony of scents, starting with a woody-toned vanilla infusion at the top, followed by the rich sweetness of vanilla caviar at its heart, and finally, the luminous lavender-enriched vanilla absolute at its base. It really showcases vanilla in a unique way.
As it wears, it fades more into a softer, sweeter vanilla scent. The woodiness from the lavender notes gets subtler, but keeps the smell from being saccharine.
Due to the complexity of the vanilla, this is one of the best Burberry perfume for women.
This elixir is an “intense” rendition of the original ‘Her’ fragrance, and the bottle emulates this intensity with a more potent pink than the original translucent bottle.
‘Her Elixir’ opens up with a bit of girlish charm with strawberry and blackberry notes. The strawberry is sweet, not tart, and right along is the blackberry- deep and rich. However, the dry down is sensual and sophisticated.
The musky notes are complimented by jasmine and carried in a sensual base of vanilla , amber and sandalwood.
‘Burberry My Burberry’ is a lovely British perfume. It brings to mind a scented garden after a rain.
The fragrance opens up with a fruity-floral burst of sweet-pea supported by multi-faceted bergamot, that deepens into the fruity-floral heart with sweet, citrus, green, peach and passionfruit tones. This is all resting on a rose-patchouli base with hints of musk, leather and violet.
The sweet pea top notes are nice and delicate, leading smoothly into the zesty, citrusy heart of mandarin orange, grapefruit, and lemon which all work together to create a very clean, feminine aroma.
‘Burberry Her London Dream’ is a modern yet floral fragrance.
This perfume has a more layered scent- it’s floral, but also has citrus and fruity elements while still having a subtle musk. A beautiful citrus forward floral with a fresh twist.
The opening of ginger and lemon give a fresh morning feeling. The notes of ginger and lemon play off each other very well.
It dries down to a sweetness from the peony and rose. The musk notes make the fragrance warm and inviting.
It is a very bright and refreshing fragrance.
