Fragrance Notes Deep Dive
Every great fragrance tells a story in three acts, and Burberry My Burberry is no exception. The opening salvo presents sweet pea, bergamot, mandarin orange, grapefruit and lemon, hitting the skin with immediate impact and establishing the character of what follows. As the top notes settle — typically within the first 20–30 minutes — the heart of Burberry My Burberry emerges: quince, freesia, geranium, peach, green notes, gardenia and passionfruit. This is the true signature of the fragrance, the character that those around you will come to recognise. Finally, the base of damask rose, rose, patchouli, musk, leather and violet anchors the composition, providing the lasting trail and the memory Burberry My Burberry leaves long after you have left the room.
The overall accord profile leans toward floral, sweet, making Burberry My Burberry a composition that reads with purposeful clarity to anyone paying attention.
