Our verdict on Burlington: Acquired

This is a real love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Some reckon it's a masterpiece of modern citrus, pure class in a bottle, while others find the cumin note absolutely vile, smelling of burnt rubber or body odour. It's a divisive one, so sample before you splurge on that hefty price tag.

While some find its projection considerable, others say it's understated, making it potentially suitable for the office. Its complex, citrus-woody profile and subtle spice lend themselves well to dates and casual wear, though the polarizing cumin note might be a risk for formal settings.

About

Opens with a zesty, tart explosion of grapefruit, lime, and mandarin, brightened by a cool mint. This invigorating citrus then develops into a warm, spicy heart with a hint of ginger and cinnamon, underpinned by a complex base of rum, tobacco, and grounding woods like cedar and oakmoss. A touch of ambergris and musk lends it depth and a subtle, 'dirty' edge.
