Pros & Cons
- ✅ 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.
- ✅ 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...
- ❌ 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'.
- ❌ 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.

- ❌ Completely plastic and artificial.
