Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Rich tobacco, cinnamon, and leather give this a warm, enveloping character that excels in fall and winter. The moderate sweetness and woody depth make it less fitting for hot weather but wearable in early spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its spicy-tobacco warmth and moderate boldness suit dates and formal events, while the richness can be a bit much for office or sporty settings. Works for casual evenings, less so for daytime business.

About

Burberry London for Men is a richly spiced, evocative fragrance built on cinnamon, tobacco leaf, and supple leather. An opening of lavender and bergamot is quickly embraced by warm port wine, mimosa, and subtle green touches, settling into a base of robust tobacco, opoponax, and oakmoss. The effect is deeply autumnal and masculine, conjuring images of crisp evenings, tweed coats, and old-world charm. With moderate projection and excellent warmth, it is an inviting, sophisticated choice for those seeking comfort and character.
