My Burberry Black

Mostly sweet resinous warmth, soft and slightly powdery. Underneath that, dark, earthy and slightly sweet, the classic seventies note.

It opens on jasmine, moves through peach and rose, and settles on amber and patchouli.

• jasmine: a rich white flower, heady and full. Up close it turns slightly animal, which some people love and others find too much
• peach: soft and sweet with a fuzzy edge, more like the skin than the juice

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
