I got a mini of this in a swap. Usually I don’t care for Burberry scents, they never quite agree with my chemistry. But this one is delightfully good! Rose scents always wear rather nicely on me, and this one is no exception! To me, Rose is the most dominant note, followed by a hefty dose of patch. It’s not a smothering patch tho. I find it very fresh. The peach and amber I smell next, lastly followed by the Jasmine. This is a good cool weather fragrance, I’m thinking it would be very overwhelming in warm weather! It’s a bit heavy, and I can see why it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’m guessing it sits differently on different skins. On me it’s a very rosey patchouli, just right. Not too sweet, not too “peachy”.
It’s sexy. And omg, no it is not masculine at all unless you think of men when you smell roses, peaches, and amber! I very much like it.
Scent 9/10
Sillage 7/10
Longevity 8/10

Woke up this morning and took a look at my sample box. I’ve never found a Burberry scent that I’ve liked, but I thought I would try My Burberry Black not knowing anything about it.
What a shocker, I like this one. When I logged onto fragrantica I was surprised to see peach listed as a note, because I don’t smell it. It opens with a loud patchouli and underlying smooth rose. I do agree that something in here is synthetic, and I would guess it’s either the amber or peach notes/accord.
This is a pretty good mainstream offering, it doesn’t surprise me that Francis Kurkdjian is the nose behind it. Surprisingly long lasting for an EDT. I’m not going to add this to my collection because I want to only buy perfumes I love but this is a worthy consideration.
serg215 – :
This is WAY too strong for me. There’s some perfumes that I can be halfway through after a few months and then there’s perfumes like this one that remain on the back of the perfume counter and are barely touched. So last night I thought I’d give this one another try and I sprayed one squirt on one wrist and it was still too strong of a smell for me. I shudder to think how much I’d be gagging if I’d sprayed more than one spritz.
I would like to use the perfume up. Here’s hoping I can do like I’ve done with a few other perfumes I don’t like and blend two together to tone down the strength of this one. I’ll update this post if I find something to tame it down a bit.
SoxPoosseNomo – :
Lovely creamy musk notes get murdered by sharp, almost acidic citrus notes on me. Fail.
Devilluck – :
Extremely sweet synthetic peach, syrupy and sticky, with softly underlying but persistent thrum of bus exhaust. Heady and strange. I really love it.
Spapawaimifex – :
I have had this perfume for about a year now. It’s very unusual and unique. First I want to say that no perfume ever attracted so many men as this one. It’s like a magnet, like bees to honey. People on the steeet I don’t know. Men at work, one even came back to just walk by again. I don’t know what it is a combination of aber and peach? The description is all wrong. I would say it’s a little boozy, definitely slightly sweet and a touch of powdery. It has the most amazing trail that one leaves behind. It’s very warm, but believe it or not it smells amazing in hot weather as well as cold. It has this creamy quality to it it’s never loud or offensive. It’s mysterious so Black is fitting. Women love it too on me but wow men are head over hills for it. I have never heard so much “you smell good” as this perfume. Longevity is very good and it continues to release if you are active as formula is wormed up by your body. It never turned bad on me once. I first smelled it on a woman in subway and thought wow this is most amazing perfume. I did not ask but then one of women at work were wearing it one day I recognized instantly. This is one of those you cannot forget or confuse with any other. I run after her and asked for the name and ordered my first bottle right away from e-bay. Definitely very unique and unusual. I think it is sexy personally, and confirmed with so many men remarks.

I tried on a black trench coat today but it never suited as well as this perfume;)
kokakola3000 – :
The bottle, name and notes all make me think “sexy, mysterious” I was so excited to blind buy this but thank god I didn’t
I saw it in ulta and upon smelling it I thought “ok it’s not bad it’s just not what I imagined”
Amber is very very prominent in it, I think it’s what gives the perfume a really smokey smell but it wasn’t a sexy smokey smell it smelled more like a mixture of a campfire/cigarettes to me
warhammer – :
This perfume smells amazing! It’s not my all time fave, but its one of the few Burberry perfumes I actually like. It lasts for about 8+ hours, I wish it was longer though. It’s sexy, but I would not consider it a head turner…
kurt90 – :
Comment only based on final notes after 5 hours.
-Smells fresh and warm e.g. freshly baked vanilla cookie in metal tray with strong metallic smell
dlcnhtyfwl – :
I love this scent, but… but whenever I wear it, I never receive compliments. And after a few hours I can no longer smell it on my wrist or clothes. I am crazy about peach scents that aren’t too cloying, and this fits. I just wish the projection was better.
monolitleha – :
This is seriously sexy in my opinion. Much better than the original, this deserves its own name! It’s a dark sweet peach and patchouli with an amber cashmere overlay. Just amazing and a hidden gem. Don’t let fear of dark scents or patchouli or sweet fragrances put you off this is a rare exception I recommend for those who want something dark fruity but elegant and restrained. Really hard to accomplish.
ckom93 – :
This might be the very first Burberry scent that I truly like. I don’t know if is a love, but it is a deep like 🙂 I would say this is really VERY unisex. I mean, I think EVERY fragrance is unisex, but of course some scents smell more traditionally feminine or masculine. This scent with the amber and patchouli could so easily work on anyone or anybody! It is warm, sweet (but not cloying) and the amber is softened by the peach. The patchouli is very gentle, almost hidden…but it is there and wonderful. I would say for anyone who hates or dislikes patchouli, you will really like Burberry Black. Longevity & Sillage are really quite good. 4-6 hours easily and then it is not done, but a wonderful skin scent!

Peach? Amber?? Rose??? All i smelled in this was a bunch of persistent chemicals, all day long today! God, who would want to smell industrial-ish…?!
fafimmaks – :
Oh, what should I say??? I’m in a relationship with this perfume! It’s a bomb: it makes you feel confident, elegant, sexy…it’s a little bit dark, mysterious with a proper hint of sweetness. Oh my Gosh, Perfect! Thank you Burberry!
Nmyanmiod – :
Sexy , quality and its my signature scent …perfect blend: clean warm sexy soft but alluring lasting and sexy slight sweet but spicy clean . Gets no better.
rarAppaksBelp – :
This is very va-va-vroom on me. With the notes, I should LOVE it. I do like it a lot, but it is a heavier evening type scent for me for sure. It is well balanced, sweet but not too sweet, very very sensual. Perfect for a special date night or any other occasion I want to feel sexy and womanly. Definitely not for teens, IMHO! I have a few samples of this and will save them for “special occasions”. Eventually I might buy a FB of this, but (unfortunately) I just don’t have a ton of events I would feel compelled to wear something like this to. It is kind of like a slinky black evening dress. Beautiful and sexy, but not something you wear every day.
IIrizrak – :
I don’t get the peach. Patchouli fragrances are not usually my thing, but I like this one a lot. The patchouli is softened by something very nice. I guess it’s the peach! This is definitely unisex.
анатолий ефремович – :
Totally agree with Imwimsatt. My favorite “My Burberry” too. It is more sophisticated, feminine, smoother but “deeper” than the original one. The peach here is done just right and plays well with amber, patchouli and jasmine with the gentle support of rose note. I’m very picky when it comes to fragrance that has dominant peach note. This one works out just great in that regard.
bedoecosy – :
Finally a peach perfume I like! And it’s the only my burberry I like too
michman76 – :
Kurkdjian is a boss, and this perfume is no exception in his stellar portfolio of work. Marketed towards women, but arguably unisex in my opinion. This used to sell for high prices, now it can be found at a bargain! My father bought this one overseas years ago, and it still smells high quality to me today even after exploring many expensive perfumes. I find these recent positive reviews so heartwarming 🙂
InnOK1989 – :
Basically…I agree with the other positive reviews here on this one. Peachy/rose beginning…then patchouli vibe comes thru and blends everything together…. And..finally…ohhh…the dry-down !!!! Magnifique !!!
Another scent that you have to let develope and go thru it’s thing…Don’t rely on the initial first spray on this one, as it comes back at you from behind…and grabs you….It does remain rather sweet IMO, but it is a good sweet…with a slight animalic vibe underneath.
sergo_nkp – :
This is a beautiful scent for a young 20-something woman. The syrupy peach and rose notes smell so good, even your mouth begins to water. My girlfriend has this perfume and my god is it ever a joy to be around her when she wears it. Nothing bad can be said about this perfume in my eyes. It invokes the image of a woman in black wearing gold jewelry, razor sharp makeup and a mission in life. A very well done fragrance by Francis Kurkdijan, if only Mr.Burberry performed this well, this would have been THE couples fragrance pairing
projection: 5 hours
longevity: 7+ hours
season: Fall, winter, colder spring and summer nights.
Best scenario to wear: date night, anniversaries, weddings, anywhere where you dress up your best.
utyio – :
This feels so luxurious it even changes my mood! Everything from the weight of the glass to the details of the bow, the lid. Not even talking about that juice, delicious oriental and pure class. It lasts for hours and hours, two sprays is more than enough! LOVE
v 1111 – :
I’ve had My Burberry Black for a year now. When I first wore it, the fragrance had very strong and overpowering peach and rose notes, almost reminded me of a household cleaner, and I couldn’t smell any of the base notes. It also had monster longevity and sillage—I remember spraying a blouse of mine, and the rose scent was still lingering for the next TWO days. After wearing this scent all through fall and winter, something changed. The creamy amber scent took over the show, and it combined really well with my skin. And OMG the dry down…The dry down is just so freaking beautiful!!! It’s sharp and warm at the same time, with the patchouli and amber coming out and the floral top notes taking a backseat. I do have to say that I can no longer smell any jasmine and even the top notes disappear after a few minutes, giving way to the amber (so much amber that it almost smells like Alien by Muglar). The longevity is still there, but I think the sillage has simmered down a bit, and I only spritz myself three times, max.
A scent for the sensual, confident, head-turning woman, My Burberry Black certainly leaves an impression. I’m young, I wear it to my lectures and always get complimented on it. Yet, I can certainly see anyone of any age rocking this. It definitely is for the sophisticated, though. Someone with a dark, edgy, bold exterior but with a heart of black and gold.

Smells just like The light my burberry, just stronger.

The review below is for me
My Burberry BLack and my Burberry are different.My BUrberry is floral and light and not intresting.but My Burberry is heady and sexy and sweet and dark.I love My BUrberry Black.first it’s like Armani Si.blackcurrant in Armani Si replaced with peach.
Burberry black is little rose,more peach and patchouli.then it’s very better.patchouli and woody notes go lighter and amber is stronger.I love warm and beautiful drydowb.very good longevity(on my skin 7hours and on clothes very longer)and great sillage.when I use it everyone notice it.it’s for winter and night.it’s not perfume for teenager.it’s for adult and confident ladys
مای باربری بلک و مای باربری شبیه هم نیستن.مای باربری گلدار و ملایم و خسته کننده ست اما مای باربری بلک. سنگین و سکسی و شیرین و تیره ست.مای باربری بلک عطر فوق العاده. عالی هست که وقتی استفاده. می کنید همه متوجه شما میشن
گرم و شیرین و تلخ هست و اول,شبیه به آرمانی سی هست اما به جای انگورفرنگی سیاه,هلو داره.
مای باربری بلک اولش خیلی زیاد نعنای هندی و هلو و خیلی کم رز داره.اما اما کم کم نعنای هندی و نت های چوبی ملایمتر میشن و کهربای خیلی زیبایی به مشام میرسه.نت های میانی و انتهایی بسیار زیبا و اغواگری داره
ماندگاری خوب(هفت ساعت روی پوست و خیلی بیشتر روی لباس) و پخش بوی عالی داره.برای زمستان و عطر شب و مجلسی مناسب هست.عطر نوجوانان نیست.مناسب خانم های قوی و بااعتمادبنفس
popperssy – :
Nothing “black/noir” about this perfume, it’s light, clean and airy, perfect for spring season. Opens with plain peach with mainly patchouli developing in the next few minutes, eventually you really do get all the notes. It’s sweet but not overwhelmingly so, I like my perfume a bit more loud and complex but it’s beautiful and has that unmistakable Burberry-DNA. It reminds me of the Burberry Woman EDP but this is a bit more modern and well-rounded, no pungent alcohol smell and decent longevity. Overall a 7.5/10 for me, I like it. Note: blind bought this as I always do. I consider this a very safe blind buy, even for a gift!
miklmakl – :
My Burberry Black EDP was a pleasant surprise and a blind buy. I was so intrigued by the notes, I had to give it a go. There is something sweet fruity there, very peach-like set against a soft floral-amber. I think the only other peach note I recall in a fragrances in my collection are Elizabeth Taylors Black Pearls and Diamonds and Rubies. I decided I like peach in perfume.
MBB is soft and sweet with subtle patchouli. I like it the more I wear it. I don’t have the original My Burberry but would like to try it now that I’ve fallen for this flanker. There is something decadent and sexy about this, like a fancy dessert drizzled with this and that.
I get floral, something jasmine-ish, but almost like some other flower that I cannot name. Power sillage, enduring on clothes and hair. Totally brazen. I mean, you wear this when you want to enter a room and command attention or when you want people to lean in and smell you. Very seductive coming from a brand famous for trench coats and plaid scarves. This is like the black lace lingerie you wear under your khaki duds. Truly.
loko – :
I bought this perfume after I tried the tester. You get all the notes. I like perfumes that you do not smell the alcohol. It is a good, unique, heavy, sexy rose perfumethat is suitable specifically and in my opinion only for winter nights. But after wearing for a while I decided that this smells too overwhelming for me. If I overspray, a note in this fragrance almost burns my nose,a bit offensive. Also I find it sickly sweet if I spray more than one spray. This is why I end up disliking the fragrance I loved enough to purchase in the first place. If only I could put my finger on what note is chocking me…
A very similar fragrance created by the same nose Francis Kurkdjan that I can recommend as a lighter option is L’extase by Nina Ricci
xps769Negeltzex – :
second review since i tried Oud Sating Mood in both eau de parfum and extrait versions. its exactly the same,just Oud is added. nose Francis Kurkdjian. I love these scents 😀
Jeka7772010 – :
It seems to be another one syrupy fruitchouli but it’s not!It seems to have only few notes listed,however it’s very complex on my skin. It’s sweet but not sickening. It’s earthy because of the patchouli. It’s so deep,warm and animalic from the amber. I don’t find it eiter masculine. To me it’s super feminine and sexy. I find no similarities with the original my burberry which I dont like as I find it very achingly floral and green. The peach in here is very well-done. Ripe,juicy and boozy. The rose is quite intense and very sexy,not in a girlie way.The amber is animalic and warm and the patchouli is sexy and earthy. It also has a small hint of floral. I can’t feel the musk at all on me skin.All in all, I loved this scent and I found another love. Sillage beast so spray with moderation. Best used in fall and winter especially for night time. Love my burberry black! <3
Prionsespoorry – :
A warm, animalic, sexy yet clean fragrance, kind of “me smell” thanks to the powdery notes. I received it as a gift because I had mentioned my likeability for “My Burberry”. Wasn’t striking love as “My Burberry” but I appreciated more its drydown and its sillage. Thank god I cannot detect any sweeetness, it is more elegant and classy.
lotto19jyn1 – :
Fruity opening with peach and oranges. Paired with an earthy scent of mossy tones and a hint of pathcouli.
Every time I smell it, it reminds me of Escada Que Viva, although I cannot discover why as the notes are not that similar, but it has that same summery booze vibe going on.
I find this perfume a little sweeter and easier on the nose than the original My Burberry. However, MBB turns more sour than sweet on my skin after a while.
As patchouli is not really my friend I will not be buying an FB, but will try the edt as it does not seem to have patch in it.
Edit: I did indeed try the edt and it is perfect for me! Same MB vibe minus the patch (now let’s wait for the MB Black edt…)
nigolap – :
I received a sample vial of this perfume and wasn’t sure what to expect based on some reviews. I noticed some people saying it was either masculine or ‘old lady’. I however, found it to be neither of those things! To me it smells sweet, but not overly so. I also do not find it masculine at all! It smells mysterious, dark, sexy, and feminine to me. I prefer it over the original My Burberry. It’s interesting how different opinions are of what is considered ‘old lady’. I’m 26 and I think of Cashmere Mist as an ‘old lady’smell.

I was anxious to leave my review as soon as I spritzed it but hat wouldn’t be fair so here it is lol … keep in mind I love Burberry London on clothing for it sweet honeysuckle scent and black it’s not lol…. at first I thought hell no lol too strong but then it turned Amber n kind of sexy but then it turned like a man sitting next to me lol I think my final impression is if your a strong lady. You can pull this off but I think this perfume would wear me as opposed to me wearing it lol it does kind of have a soap smell maybe in Bloomingdales in the men’s bathroom lol idk but it is sexy too but maybe it’s cuz I’m smelling a sexy man lol and it’s VERY STRONG one spritz and my nose will smell this all day from sniffing my arm lol .. I think I’m going to just stick with London it’s softer and sweeter on me
soldat34 – :
Okay so I just sampled my Burberry black and I don’t think I will be calling it mine any longer
angelg – :
On me, this is a sweet and juicy peach with candied amber. The Patchouli came and went in the beginning, but the flowers remain throughout as a baseline. I don’t get a lot of rose. My Burberry Black is much sweeter than anticipated and could use some roughening up with spices or leather. It’s not as dark as the name suggests, so I don’t see myself pursuing this after I finish the sample. After a few hours of wear, it is no different from a traditional fruity-chouli. Too sweet for me.
usmic – :
This smells soapy on me, which is not something I like very much. My husband said I smell like soap and old lady flowers. I’ll give it another try at some point but not a hit so far.
ulrira – :
A sweet delightful feminine fragrance with a hint of freshness at the beginning. Just a few components, perfectly choosen, which create a velvety, sensual sillage. Delicious!
The only negative point for me is that after a couple of hours, only the patchouli note remains on my skin, quite intensively.
suy579speagoessenda – :
Love Love Love this perfume. It’s so expensive tho. On me this drys down to a very almost honeysuckle scent. It’s very different from the blotter spray. I suggest wearing this one before you buy it.

Perfume has no gender – does it matter whether the nose or company designates it as being for men/women/unisex?
If you love Burberry Black (I do, incidentally) – wear it and convention be damned!
Hope this helps you!

Just a question for you all out there. Do you think that a man could get away wearing this fragrance. It is a heavy fragrance and I just love it. My son complimented me on it and was wondering if it was a unisex fragrance. What do think??? Please help.
fasuaws – :
OMG, Burberry created a masterpiece. Definitely one of my favorites!
It is sophisticated and very warm,although I still smell the original My Burberry. It is deep and lasts long. But be careful it’s too strong so one sprinkle is more than enough otherwise you get headache.
My signature for this winter 😉
AntonZloi – :
Whew, this is a strong one! The peach notes kind of get caught in my throat when I sniff it up close, but from afar, this is a beauty. I didn’t know the actual notes of this when I tested it, but could tell immediately that it is a peachy amber patchouli fragrance. You can also smell the jasmine pretty strongly (well, I can I should say). The notes are very obvious but they mesh well. I wasn’t expecting this to project as much as it does and it also lasts a long time (I can still smell it when I sniff my wrist closely and I tested it at the store at 5:00 pm last night). I can see this being a perfect autumn, winter, and spring fragrance. Might get too cloying in higher temperatures.
jen6ka20081 – :
The peach in this is just so pretty. I waver between “like” and “love” for this one. I’ve been experimenting with Burberry frags in the last couple of months and thought for sure I’d love them, but the truth is that most of them don’t do much for me. I think the My Burberry line is the exception. And in particular, Black is my favorite.
There’s no booze listed in the notes, but this definitely has a boozy feel with the amber, rose and peach. Fruit first… and I would say that it smells like a peach that’s just a little TOO ripe, but not in a bad way. It smells warm and brownish-amber, like the light coming through a glass of cognac. But yet, somehow a bit… fizzy? Boozy amber next, then rose. It’s a very smooth scent, and on me it remains fairly linear but I like it from first spritz, so I’m cool with that. And yes, the longevity is pretty great.
So why the waffling between “like” and “love?” There’s just something about it that keeps it from being 100% perfect for me, and I can’t tell you what it is, but maybe I’ll figure it out… but I do find this very wearable and I think it’s especially nice during the winter months.
Careful not to overspray this one… it projects like a mofo.
crash – :
Nice, warm, a bit sexy… Great for fall. Love the opening. Dry down is nice but the opening is where its at.
gidro2000 – :
It’s very warm and smooth like honey dripping off it’s cone on a sunny day. Amber circles it shape. It’s a nice perfume for a cold day or night for any occasion. It doesn’t have a wow factor, but still very nice
ukrvodas – :
I never met a Burberry I didn’t like until this one. I loved it for the first hour but the drydown nearly choked me. The worst part was that it stuck to my jacket sleeve and lingered for days. I was visiting my mother and wondered silently (what is that cheap perfume she’s wearing) …. turns out it was me. Not a good blind buy.
indeec86 – :
My Burberry Black has absolutely enchanted me. This gorgeous scent is deep and womanly, very much “adults only.” There are no sharp edges here and nothing stands out too much; the peach is fruity but not overly sweet or sticky, the rose is in balance to the rest (even to my rose-sensitive/rose-phobic nose). The drydown reminds me of a warmer, more wearable classic chypre. The projection is perfect for me (I like strong scents but don’t like causing discomfort to coworkers and patients), and the longevity is stellar. The bottle is very heavy and high-end feeling, which I love. All in all, I think MBB is a true 10/10 and would even go so far as to call it a sophisticated modern classic.
Gram – :
I love it on paper but once the alchohol dries it reminds me too much of an older lady’s perfume. It also begins to smell like a swimming pool noodle.
cahek84 – :
I’ve tested this several times and so know I love it. So rich and sexy smelling. Ordered a tester 90 ml at $75 Cdn which is a great price cannot wait to get it, so excited. My present to me, Happy Belated Canadian Thanksgiving! And Happy Thanksgiving to you in US.
Accuntede – :
My Burberry Black is a sexy,warm,intoxicating fragrance. I love it!! At first it’s a bit masculine,but quickly becomes a creamy rose, sweet,almost boozy peach,and amber. On me, it also smells a little soapy. This is beautifully blended, and like other Burberry fragrances, does not disappoint. I would wear this in fall/winter.
Elish888 – :
I love the smell of candied roses and peach nectar! Mom and even me and my sisters love it!
DIESEL198129 – :
Francis Kurdjian does it again.
A very fine perfume, masterfully wrought. Superb longevity, medium sillage. The peach is deliciously deep, not at all like an air freshener as one reviewer noted. Burberry Black is evocative of golden light of a crystalline afternoon. It’s sweet warmth is very therapeutic, a perfect anodyne for a trying day. The notes harmonise seamlessly, I smell no dramatic shifts in its rhythm. Gently it unfolds…
NOTHING comes close to his formulations for Maison Francis Kurkdjian, but Black is a luxury cruise at an economy price!
pbs2003 – :
I don’t particularly like burberry’s fragrances, not that I hate them, but there are just…meh…. and pretty much the same. This is a little, just a little bit different but neverteless, I would not purchase it. It is between night and day, not really casual, but neither mystical or mysterious, enigmatic enough for the night. Maybe it is a night, black perfume for really casual type of women, more athletic etc. I must admit that the longevity is out of this world! I went to a department store, yesterday more than 24 hours ago and i only sprayed just a little bit once and I can still smell it, I don’t find this with my chanels or guerlains or even muglers. This is a really good reason to rethink this purchasing… but it is not really my style, i find it a little bit cold after a while…
vadiiik – :
The clean leathery dry down is what this fragrance is all about in my opinion. My only Burberry frag, blind bought and not disappointed. Even the spicy peachy opening couldn’t offend. Longevity at least 10 hours with the best part kicking in about two hours after application. You’ll get your money’s worth out of this one.
stalker1993 – :
Almost returned it after reading so many reviews about its being too fruity or sweet… The first note that stood out to be distinguishable to me, however, is ROSE (in addition to the fruity smokey sweetness which I could not tell the individual notes). Lovely perfume, decent lasting power and projection, very well blended, as is with all Burberry perfumes. Glad I kept it. Happy bind buying!
kirioglos – :
I can see the DNA or My Burberry perfume in MBB parfum, but I think they are different enough to justify owning both. Love them both.
klon – :
Oh My! This is gorgeous! It’s a spicy sweet scent on my skin. This is a compliment fragrance for sure. It smells brown sugary sweet, not laffy taffy sweet to me. It develops very nicely. It gets better with time, & lasts a really long time. No more than two sprays is all you need. I will ALWAYS keep this one in my arsenal!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Azmodes – :
My burberry black EDP is deep and sensual. I can smell sweetened leather and plastic. It feels slightly masculine, sleek and modern like a shiny metallic pantsuit. Perfect for a night event at the gallery. Sprayed lightly, it could complement an edgy daytime look as well.
Viniariunda – :
I have the parfum version of this and it is beautiful! I dismissed this line out of hand for being “trendy,” and I am ashamed to say that I did so. Normally, I don’t go for amber fragrances. Here, though, tempered by the peach and patchouli, it adds a warmth and depth to the scent.
The rose I is present but not the dominant note. It provides more of a floral undercurrent, keeping the parfum from stalling in heavy peach and patchouli. The rose becomes more obvious in the mid-notes. Peach recedes a bit.
I would swear there are spices in here, cinnamon and clove come to mind, but they are not listed. It could very well be the amber base bringing out different aspects.
This is not a linear fragrance. Keeping in mind that I have the parfum concentration, I have smelled distinctly top and mid-notes. Three hours after application, still going. Will update when I have reached the base notes.
I keep getting visions of a rich, red velvet curtain, like those found on the the older stages across the world. While this has shot straight to a Love for me, it is so opulent and different from recent releases, that I would hesitate to recommend a blind buy.
lsc694speagoessenda – :
What felt too masculine at first became powerfully sexy when applied more gently (in my hair/nape of neck). Like the difference between a dominatrix and wearing matching lingerie under your power suit. Warm, classy and not overly sweet (but definitely a winter scent). The peach-candied rose lasts forever. On me, it’s different enough to stand out from other fruitchoulis. I’m really growing to love this one.

My Burberry Black goes on strong, but finishes heavenly. This is one of those perfumes that I get intoxicated when I smell it and I savor its dry down. It’s sexy, sophisticated and sweet. I smell its lingering fragrance for weeks in my closet after I’ve worn it — and that is a good thing for me. Wow — love it!

Sadly this smells very masculine on me and is very heavy. Glad I only bought a tester!

My Burberry Black has a similar feel to the original, however I much prefer this flanker for the bold peach note. It’s an elegant, somewhat mature fragrance, something I would wear in a corporate office environment or to a nice restaurant.
The peach note in My Burberry Black is like a delicious, syrupy peach liqueur. It wears quite thick on the skin, with the amber note only heightening its effects. For this reason I would choose to wear My Burberry Black during Winter and Autumn.
Some like to describe this flanker as a fruit-chouli, and I would tend to agree. There are certain moments throughout the drydown of My Burberry Black that I am reminded of Miss Dior EDP with its rich fruits and patchouli combo.
I don’t find My Burberry Black quite as rosy as some other reviewers do. The most dominant notes to my nose are peach, patchouli and amber. Thankfully I love all three of these notes, so it was a given that I would enjoy wearing this flanker.
I own quite a few peach inspired fragrances already, so at this present point in time I don’t see a point in adding My Burberry Black to my collection although I find it extremely pleasant. The bottle is however a great selling point as I nearly caved and bought My Burberry Black based purely on the bottle design alone.

My Burberry in original fragrance was my favorite but it didn’t last that long as I wanted to. My Burberry in black is now a go to. Be careful after using the original one this is intense and as it is promised stays all day long. One spray is enough. Wow! Highly recommend for those loves this perfume and want to wear it till the end of the day.
