Summer scent with a unique twist
Burberry Summer '09 is a lot fruitier and fresher than its predecessor.
While this version maintains the pretty floral notes found in the original, the added notes of litchi, mandarin orange and red currant gives this fragrance so much more character. Crisp yet delicate, I find this fragrance much better suited to hot climates.
I tested this fragrance on a relatively humid day in the city and I'll admit that I felt very refreshed simply by wearing this scent. Rather than being sharp or potently fruity, Burberry Summer '09 sits smoothly on the skin and never feels too sticky.
It is a perfect balance of fruits, florals and woodsy notes. The cedar and sandalwood in the base notes has an almost clean, soapy quality which rounds the scent off nicely.
So far this would be my choice if I had to choose a Summer scent from the Burberry line.
