I’ve always wanted to try it. Burberry never misses with their fragrances. We all have our favorite ❤️
I love it! It’s one of the best I’ve tried, but unfortunately, I can’t find it anymore. Do they still sell it?
The Body line by Burberry is pure art. It captures the feminine essence, elegance, and good taste without being pretentious. Original and less known, with a stunning glass bottle that looks like it holds that delicious pink essence liquid you don’t want to lose a drop of. It was my first body perfume, but Almaraic is from another planet. If I had to choose one perfume for life, this is MY definitive choice, Body and Body Trend 💗
I bought it blind and couldn’t handle it. The musk note feels so heavy on my skin that it gave me a headache, what a pity because the perfume is rich, elegant, enveloping, and has great projection.
OMG! I don’t know why I waited so long to buy it. I saw it and always put it off for others. It’s a beauty, I loved it the moment I opened it. It has a musky sweetness, delicate, and very feminine. It smells clean, but a cozy, warm, and intimate kind of clean. Not like laundry detergent. I’m thrilled and plan to buy another one of their flankers.
A delight, especially for nighttime, an absolute treat. If you like Miracle by Lancôme, this is a great option.
Delicious, I bought it blind and I love it. It’s gorgeous, a delicate floral that I don’t have another one that resembles it. I wore it three hours ago and I can still smell it, I think it lasts even longer. I’m very happy with the perfume and its bottle, which is also lovely.
Body has stayed in my collection almost since it launched. It’s a warm and unique scent with personality. The opening is fascinating and over time it blends with your natural scent, becoming musky and vanilla-like, yet still keeping that opening touch. I recommend it for cold or temperate climates; on your sweater, it’s comforting. Pros: hard to find a similar one, especially among popular scents; it has an extensive line to try and combine; in Mexico, it’s easy to find online at a good price, and still not common. Cons: after about two hours, the longevity is imperceptible from a distance, it stays with you but doesn’t project easily… well, maybe it’s good for many. Worth trying.
It wasn’t love at first sniff, but wow! It literally melts into the skin. The opening is dominated by absinthe, which didn’t agree with my nose accustomed to sweet floral scents, but minutes passed and wow! I need to wear it next autumn and all the following ones. Fine, one of the finest, delicious, a fruity woody floral without being cloying. That absinthe note makes it unique, incredible how it evolves over the hours. I love it and need it always in my vanity. ❤️
Fino Fino, that peach was noticeable on my skin even after it settled. There was a phase where this perfume drove me crazy, I already finished the bottle. I still recommend it when asked about fruity but fine perfumes.
So delicious! Smells like ripe peach at first. The iris and vanilla rise quickly, with a touch of plush Kashmir wood. It’s powdery, but in a clean, refined way—nothing harsh. Worth it; it’s always a good price and feels more expensive than it is. Projects well and lasts a long time, perfect for cool days; I wouldn’t wear it in the heat.
The most sophisticated one. Just the right woody touch, with excellent longevity that screams elegance: the independent woman who leaves a mark. Roses with a woody and powdery base, a perfect combination for me.

I really wanted this, and although it wasn’t love at first sight, now that I own it, I like it quite a bit. It’s basically a very amber and warm rose, nothing fresh. Perfect for autumn; I also wear it in winter and maybe spring, but not in the heat due to its intensity. It doesn’t smell like soap, but rather like cleanliness, with a powdery touch and pure SOPHISTICATION. Last time it was cold, I wore a camel trench and plaid skirt, very British, and felt the most sophisticated person there. It’s incredible how perfumes complement us and what they make us feel. At 34, it suits me well; it’s mature. I don’t see it as something for girls because of that sophisticated trail, though everyone knows what works for them. The longevity left me speechless; I didn’t expect it. I put it on at 7:00 PM, and the next day it still smells even without me getting close. It’s amazing. The trail is moderate; the first hours are strong, so you need to control the sprays. It empowers, and I love that.
I arrived with this perfume yesterday. I tested it on my wrist and it didn’t disgust me, but I felt a strange note I couldn’t identify and didn’t like. Today, after taking a shower, I applied it and wow… I completely changed my mind. It’s a delight. It has a good trail and longevity. I still don’t know which note dominates, but it feels present and doesn’t weigh you down. I see it more for cold climates and for night. Also, the box and bottle are gorgeous.
It smells incredibly clean, like skin straight out of the shower. I’m fascinated by it; it has a certain familiarity with Dolce & Gabbana’s Light Blue. They’re not the same, but they have a very similar profile; surely both smell clean, like sunshine, pure white.
How to describe it? Elegant, delicate, a layer of luxury soap on the skin. A clean scent, but not just any clean scent—like those expensive bubble baths, with candles, a glass of wine, and chocolates. That’s the feeling it gives me. A great Burberry perfume, with a bottle just as elegant and sophisticated. It’s beautiful.
A jewel. Super elegant. I loved it so much that even my daughter used it up.

I was gifted a sample and it was love at first sight. It’s floral, soapy, and very elegant. It has excellent longevity, but unfortunately, it doesn’t project much of a trail. It will be my next purchase for autumn.
You make me feel delicate, slightly soapy, and nothing intrusive. I like you very much because, despite that, you have good longevity; the roses and peach stand out. I need you.
The Burberry Body eau de parfum is my daily perfume. Rose, peach, and vanilla are the notes that hit me the most. It’s a good perfume and affordable. The longevity isn’t long, about three hours on my skin, which is why I wear it daily. It lasts longer on clothes than on skin. I love the scent, and the best part is that few women use it. In general, Burberry perfumes are great for daytime: affordable price and brand quality.
Didn’t hook me; it’s too sober. I can picture myself as an executive in heels, walking with a firm, confident stride. Definitely not my style.
Like the other Burberrys, this one fixes perfectly and is super feminine. The undisputed queen is the rose. You can smell the flower with a light touch of peach, finishing in vanilla. Ideal for daytime, but watch out: it lasts forever and projects strongly, so use it in moderation. 8/10.
This perfume didn’t convince me; I didn’t find it interesting. It is indeed sober; I imagine a confident woman, like a high-heeled executive with a strong walk. Definitely not for me.
Like the other Burberrys, this perfume hits hard and is super feminine, with rose as the undisputed queen. You can smell the light rose with a touch of peach and it finishes with vanilla. It’s used during the day, but be careful: it lasts a long time and projects strongly, so use it in moderation. I give it 8/10.
Just bought it and I’m happy; it has so much personality. I was looking for something sexy for going out, and I think I nailed it. It smells like liquor mixed with flowers, ending in deep woods—I love it. I see this for a woman over 30, for night or evening, not for work; it’s very overpowering. I agree with Coke that it reminds me of Baby Doll because of that liquor note, but I like this one more. Ugh, it lasts a ton, about 6 to 8 hours.
At first, it seemed strong and generic, but after a minute, I started to like it. You can detect the peach with fine, fresh roses. The vanilla adds sweetness without losing freshness or elegance. I liked it quite a bit, maybe I’ll buy it. The longevity is good, it’s elegant, and it stands out from perfumes all over the world.
Another one from my collection that I bought before meeting the designer. I realize again that it’s the same creator as several of my favorites, Michel Almairac, thanks.
A warm, youthful, sweet, and elegant fragrance. The vanilla and amber are subtle, while the fruity, woody, and floral notes are in harmony, composing a very urban chypre. Excellent for strolling through the city. On my skin, it lasts half a day and its aura too. Highly recommended.
