Always wanted to try it. Burberry never fails with their fragrances. We all have our favourite ❤️
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. You find the feminine essence, elegance and good taste there without being pretentious. Original and little-known, with a spectacular quality glass bottle that seems to hold that delicious pink essence liquid from which you don’t want to lose a single drop. It was my first body, but Almaraic is from another planet. If I have to choose a perfume for a lifetime, 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, a pity because the perfume is rich, elegant, enveloping and has good projection.
OMG! I don’t know why I took so long to buy it. I kept seeing it and always put it off for others. It’s a beauty, I loved it from the moment I opened it. It has a musky sweetness, delicate and very feminine. It smells clean, but a clean, cosy, warm and intimate scent. It’s not like fabric softener. Delighted and I plan to buy one of their flankers.
A delight, especially for the evenings, a real treat. If you like Miracle by Lancôme, it’s a good option.
Delicious, I bought it blind and I love it. It’s lovely, a delicate floral that I don’t have another that resembles it. I put it on three hours ago and I can still smell it, I think it will last longer. I’m very happy with the perfume and with its bottle, which is also nice.
Body has stayed in my collection almost since it launched. It’s a warm and unique aroma with personality. The opening is fascinating and over time it blends with your own scent, becoming musky and vanilla-like, but still with that opening touch. I recommend it for cold or mild climates; on your jumper it’s comforting. Pros: hardly resembles another, especially among popular ones; it has an extensive line to try and combine; in Mexico it’s easy to find online at a good price, and yet it’s not common. Cons: after about two hours the longevity is imperceptible at a distance, it stays with you but doesn’t project easily… well, perhaps 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 please my nose accustomed to sweet floral scents, but minutes passed and ugh! I need to use 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 dressing table. ❤️
Fine and fine, that peach was noticeable on my skin even after it had settled. There was a stage where this perfume drove me mad, I’ve already finished it. I still recommend it when they ask me about fruity but fine perfumes.
Lovely. Smells of ripe peach at first, then 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; always comes at a good price and feels more expensive than it is. Projects well and lasts a long time, ideal for fresh days; I wouldn’t wear it in the heat.
The most sophisticated. It has just the right woody touch, with incredible longevity that screams elegance: the independent woman who leaves a mark. Roses with a woody and powdery base – a perfect combination for me.

I had it on my wishlist, 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 perhaps spring, but not in the heat due to its intensity. It doesn’t smell like soap, but rather cleanliness, with a powdery touch and pure SOFISTICATION. The other time it was cold, I wore a camel trench and a plaid skirt, very British, and felt the most sophisticated person there. What incredible how perfumes complement us and make us feel. At 34, it suits me well; it’s mature. I don’t see it as a scent for girls because of that sophisticated trail, though everyone knows what suits 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 without me getting close. It’s fantastic. 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 displease me, but I sensed a strange note I couldn’t identify and didn’t like it. Today, after a bath, 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 is the dominant note, but it feels present and doesn’t weigh down. I see it more for cold climates and for evening. Also, the box and bottle are gorgeous.
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 aren’t 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; like those expensive bubble baths, with candles, a glass of wine, and chocolates. That feeling it gives me. A great Burberry perfume, with a bottle equally elegant and sophisticated. It’s lovely.
A gem. Super elegant. I loved it so much that even my little girl wore it for me.

A friend gifted me a sample and it was love at first sight. It’s floral, soapy, and very elegant. It has excellent longevity, but unfortunately 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 good thing is that few women use it. In general, Burberry perfumes are excellent for daytime: affordable price and brand quality.
It didn’t grab me; it’s very sober. I can see myself wearing it as an executive in heels, with a firm stride and self-assured. Definitely not my style.
Like the other Burberrys, this fixes perfectly and is super feminine; the undisputed queen is the rose. You can smell the flower with a light touch of peach, finishing on vanilla. Ideal for day, but beware: it lasts a long time and projects strongly, so use it with moderation. 8/10.
This perfume didn’t convince me; I didn’t find it interesting. It is sober, though; I imagine a confident woman, like a high-heeled executive with a strong presence. Definitely not for me.
Like the other Burberrys, this perfume hits hard and is super feminine, with the rose as the undisputed queen. You can detect the pale rose with a light touch of peach, finishing with vanilla. It’s suitable for daytime wear, but be careful: it lasts a long time and projects strongly, so use it with moderation. I’d give it 8/10.
I 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 got it right. It smells like liquor mixed with flowers, ending in deep woods; I love it. I see this for a woman over 30, for evening or late afternoon, not for work, as it’s very overpowering. I agree with Coke that it reminds me of Baby Doll due to that liquor note, but I like this one more. Ugh, it lasts a long time, about 6 to 8 hours.
At first, I thought it was strong and generic, but after a minute, I started to like it. You can smell 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 stands out from perfumes all over the world.
Another one from my collection that I bought before meeting the designer. I realise again that it’s the same creator as several of my favourites, Michel Almairac, thanks.
It’s a warm, youthful, sweet, and elegant fragrance; the vanilla and amber notes offer a subtle nod while the fruits, woods, and flowers blend in harmony, creating a super urban chypre. Perfect for strolling through the city. On my skin, the longevity and trail are moderate, but it’s highly recommended.
