Touch for Women (2000)
by Burberry

Burberry Touch is different to say the least. I'm not usually a lover of green and soapy scents, however this fragrance charms me.

This fragrance opens with a sharp, green bitterness which tends to rather masculine. Despite being turned off by this opening I was intrigued by it and kept bringing my wrist to my nose to smell it over and over again.

In a way I wanted this fragrance to turn creamy and slightly sweet, however in the heart it is mostly a powdery and soapy scent. The notes are very light, almost undetectable. It's like the composition has been mixed so well that it's hard to identify any particular notes.

Some would call this powdery floral mediocre, but I find it to be much more complex than it seems. The way it settles on the skin is very delicate, it becomes a scent that isn't just perfume, it is like a natural part of yourself, a natural skin scent.

This fragrance lingers on your skin for hours and I never get sick of it. It is so enticing that I can barely stop smelling it. The overall impression is a light, pretty and inoffensive fragrance best suited for daytime/casual wear.

Think of Burberry and you may think of your typical British 'chav' standing outside a corner shop with a can of Stella in one hand and a pitbulls leash in the other however Burberrys fragrances are devine and Touch is definately one of the best. It's light and fresh and won't give your nan a headache. It's neither overpowering or too sweet it's just perfect for any lady of any age.

Touch is a nice scent. Rather dry, clean and not too sweet. Interesting. I can't detect any aldehyde note and in my opinion Touch bears no resemblance to Chanel No. 5 which is a perfume I absolutely detest. Touch is a perfume that can be worn every day.

not headachy at all, really natural smelling
i usually like simple smells without alot of note so i was hesitant

The aldehyde note is similar to Jewels of Blu, Gucci Rush and No. 5. So if you like the above mentioned perfume, you should give a try. I think this is feminine but I'm not a big fan of aldehyde as of now; am working on it.

The thing I like about Touch is it's maturity. No, not blue haired and using a walker maturity, but a maturity that makes it so much more interesting than some of the other Burberry scents I've smelled (I'm especially thinking of Brit). It's a little dark, not too sweet, and though it has fruit and flowers it does not smell like the hundreds of other fruity florals aimed at the 18-24 set out there. I like the vanilla in the dry down. Others have found it very sweet, but when I compare it to some of the other vanilla containing scents out there it's almost bitter to me! Not on my wishlist, but quite tolerable. And even though it's a little boring, I like the somewhat masculine bottle.
