Burberry Body is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2012, created by Michel Almairac. Body opens with Apple, Peach, and Wormwood, settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Rose, and Tea, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Burberry's Body carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This isn't a showstopper, just a reliably lovely, clean skin scent. It's often compared favourably to its stronger EDP sibling for being lighter and more versatile, but its quiet nature also means some find it barely there.

About

Burberry Body EDT opens with a crisp, green apple and juicy peach, softened by a hint of bitter wormwood. The heart unfolds into a delicate, modern rose grounded by earthy tea and creamy sandalwood. It settles into a comforting base of cashmere wood and soft musk, with just a whisper of warm amber and vanilla, evoking the scent of freshly lotioned skin.
