Burberry fragrances are inspired by the classic and elegant image of the Burberry apparel. Each scent breathes an invigorating radiance. It’s crisp, urbane, dynamic and naturally fresh. The Burberry brand evokes an exquisite level of panache that sets itself apart from the multitude of fragrances in the perfume market. The exclusive black, red and white pattern also known as the Haymarket check or Burberry check is one of the most copied labels in the fashion industry today.
In 1856, British designer Thomas Burberry established the Burberry label. What started as a single shop in Haymarket, London, now the company is one of the most elite names in haute couture, fragrances and accessory collections. The company is also a recipient of the Royal Warrants granted by the British Royal Family.
The first Burberry perfume, Burberry Men, was introduced in 1995. After its successful debut, women’s fragrances followed: Burberry Touch Perfume for Women, Burberry Weekend and Burberry Tender Touch. In the years that followed, more fragrances were introduced in the perfume world. The most recent perfumes to join the group are Burberry Summer Men and Burberry Summer Women.
