|  Yuck! I cannot believe that I once owned this. It is a cloying, hazy woody-oriental, but also very much a gourmand, and not a pleasant one at that. It is essentially a ginger overload, with a heart of some sweet spices, and a base of generic woods. It reminded me somewhat of urinal pucks used to control the smells in public washrooms. Despite this similarity, it is still not a particularly great scent. Perhaps it is innovative and different from most mass-market men's fragrances, but it is simply too cloying and sweet for my tastes. 14 September 2008 |

|  Very feminine even more so than Burburry Brit Gold for women!, it has rose in it and turns baby powdery in 5 minutes...I returned my bottle. 14 June 2008 |

|  Yikes! don't hang me for this one, but this smells hideous on me. The other problem is that I don't like it on anyone else either. Hate to be a party pooper but this smells like rotten pears. I know the popularity, just not my thing 09 December 2007 |

|  I don`t find it very oriental, it's more fresh. Could be a very bad summer version of london Men. :) 23 June 2007 |

|  I didn't agree with any of the positive things written here. It's so citrus it's cranked up beyond citrus and is approaching motor oil. It smells really rancid on my own skin. It actually reminds me of that 'timeless' old man gathering dust on your shelves, BRUT. 09 May 2007 |

|  Sorry, but this comes off as a powdery and banal version of Egoiste. Get your ross elsewhere. Too sweet. Pass. 17 April 2007 |

|  After Burberry London, I was sure I was going to like Brit, even though the in-store tests were basically negative. To my nose Brit's opening notes are too floral and far too sweet, but it's opening notes are fleeting, so this fragrance is about the drydown, and no in store test adequately reveals the dry down. After about 10 minutes or so, on me Brit smells like baby powder. It sure isn't ny idea of a masculine scent, but I could see were some might like it (it smells cute and comfy), but, if, you do (or she does) like it when you wear baby powder.... save your money, and visit the baby section of the local pharmacists. 16 March 2007 |

|  In theory, I liked the idea of roses (used tastefully) in a male fragrance. In practice, though, it's just too feminine. It starts off as something resembling potpourri and ends up as baby powder. 05 November 2006 |

|  Wow! I finally sampled this powery fragrance. I was totally put off by it. When I first sprayed it, the spicy effects were almost rancid. Bleh! The dry down was almost like baby powder on me. Didn't like this one at all. I'm sure it smells wonderful on some, but it didn't work for me. 17 October 2006 |

|  There's something I like about the scent. Unfortunately, I started to get a headache from it. When I asked a co-worker's opinion, her response was "You didn't buy that, did you?" 08 January 2006 |

|  I was a fool. I sprayed this on paper instead of my arm at the store. I cannot wear this scent. It makes me a bit ill as it dries down. It is rich and powdery and sweet. I can't pinpoint what I dislike so, perhaps the cedar/nutmeg combination. Be sure to wear it before you buy it. 16 August 2005 |

|  This one is terrible, it is to sweet and pestilent. The design of the bottle is nice. But this doesn´t help. By Matze Germany, Aschaffenburg 09 November 2004 |
