Can you identify this Burberry London bottle?

Hey guys, I've had this bottle in my collection for a while now. I bought it as it was cheap and looked like a classic burberry. I can't seem to find it in the directory though and was wondering if it even genuine or not. It is in a glass bottle with a black coating that has started to peal off. On the back it has "Burberry London Pour Homme Eau De Toilette 100ml e 80% Vol. 3.4fl.o.z." so I guess it's supposedly a male fragrance but smells more feminine than Black XS!

Any ideas of a purchase date?

The "original" Burberry was discontinued in 1996, in it's second variant.

I have not seen that bottle before.

It doesn't have any kind of date stamped on it and didn't come with the box. I'm not sure if it's one of the old burberry frags with an updated bottle. It is very feminine smelling floral scent if this helps anyone who has an old burberry bottle to try and identify.

This is a fake! I have a collection of all the Burberry bottle and none was ever issued like this.
Another give away of fake is the name. Burberry was know as Burberrys until the mid 1990's when the house restablished it self as Burberry London - so this bottle is trying to date is self in the 90's to now.
