This is NOT for the younger guys; it’s a mature and classy fragrance, more suited for the 30-up crowd for daytime use. And you can wear it all year round (that is, except in the high summer heat). Now, I’ll be straight with you; lasting performance was a bit iffy — it was all over the place. In our tests, depending on the wearer and temperature, it lasted anywhere from 4–8 hours. So your mileage may vary. This option combines the woody notes of barks, mosses and warm resins with the greener impression of aromatic spices for a truly hypnotic effect. This fragrance's top is dominated by a single note of citrus fruits. Next middle notes of violet leaves and pepper move in. As these waft away, they uncover the base of vetiver. (Vetiver, sometimes called khus, is a grass similar to lemongrass and native to India.) Burberry Fragrances: Pricing By the way, it makes for an absolute killer office scent, as it has a professional vibe to it. Modern & Minimalistic It’s soft ,clean, and smells extremely pleasing. And you’ll be pleased to know this is… Hyper Versatile

Burberry Touch opens up with a blast of violet leaf mixed with a hint of citruses and pepper — to give you a semi-sweet, slightly powdery, clean soapy spicy vibe. If you’re looking for a flamboyant scent that is going to dominate the room… or something hyper complex or “ off the beaten path”, then you’re going to be sorely disappointed, because this one is… Beautifully Simple The Beat opens with citrus, violet leaf and a touch of vetiver; the aroma is fresh and fruity in character — but strangely “subdued.” Into this slightly “green” world, marches what must be “leatherwood”…smelling suspiciously like cedar-cumin. The Beat’s pepper note is subtle and its woods are mid-strength (and just a tad “sweaty” and vanillic). There’s nothing to dislike about The Beat; it’s well done, but certainly not edgy, let alone cutting-edge. Christopher Bailey likes the word “effortless” and the The Beat is “effortless”: layer some DSquared2 HeWood with Gucci Pour Homme and you approximate the scent of The Beat — but with a livelier tempo and louder volume.

This is a carefree, casual, everyday fragrance — that is perfect for the weekends! (Hence the name.) 🙂 The Beat for Men is not strictly masculine, I would definitely recommend this fragrance to both men and women. I get a lot of sweet, spicy woods, and I like it, a lot.

With model Agyness Deyn as its face, Beat is targeting a young, urban and hip crowd, said Burberry's creative director Christopher Bailey. "The mood of the fragrance is young, modern, energetic, dynamic, expressive, fun, vigour, verve and spiritedness ... All words that describe the mood, inspiration and sense of ebullience that we wanted to evoke." (via Cosmetics International, 12/14/2007) Then, after about 10 minutes… the lemon is joined with a fresh grapefruit and fruity pineapple accord. The result? Mr Burberry Indigo opens with a blast of fresh lemon citrus and spearmint. The spearmint smells bright and super authentic.Burberry Weekend is an EDT concentration and has average projection for the first 2 hours… then becomes more subtle. This push towards modernity is perfectly expressed by The Beat, which is marketed towards a modern, yet sophisticated woman of any age. Invigorating and energetic, The Beat is for any woman who wants to show off her zeal for music and zest for life. When to Wear It I spent some time listening to the music that Burberry reportedly gave to perfumers Dominique Ropion, Olivier Polge and Beatrice Piquet to get them in the right mindset for The Beat (Kasabian, Dirty Pretty Things, Razorlight, the Arctic Monkeys and The Fratellis). It is par for the course, I suppose, that the music is far edgier than the juice they came up with? Presumably they're hoping to reach a wider audience than you'd get with a fragrance that evoked Dirty Pretty Things' Gin and Milk, and I shouldn't think anybody was going to go looking for edgy from Burberry anyway. And as soon as the citrus dissipates, freshly-cut cedarwood makes itself known — joined with some juniper and a sprinkling of pepper. The second Hero hits your skin, the bright, fresh bergamot citrus gives you an immediate boost of confidence. It has an uplifting fresh-fizzy feel to it.

So many reviewers are saying that this fragrance is too harsh and too peppery, I find this fragrance more spicy than peppery. Perhaps it is just the way my nose perceives this fragrance. I also get a lot of violet and sweet, juicy fruits. This is super safe and versatile: dressed up, dressed down, all ages, and just about all occasions. Perfect for the office and casual wear.
