It seems like with all the new hype of fall/winter niches and Muglers(which are well deserved), that one great fall and winter fragrance kind of seems to be forgotten. I am talking about the legendary Burberry's London.
I think people are forgetting about how absolutely beautiful and unique this fragrance really is. The knock on it has always been longevity and projection, but I had an interesting experience when I wore it tonight.
I arrived at my friends house about 1.5 hours after application. I did one spray to the chest under my shirt, one on the neck, one on the wrist and touched them together. 3 sprays for a fragrance that has a reputation of being "weak" is pretty liberal.
When he opened the door, we were standing about 5 feet away from each other. Right when he opened the door, he said "Dude, are you wearing Spicebomb?"
To be honest, even I was quite shocked that he picked it up from such a decent ways away when I was completely stationary. Needless to say, I was pretty excited
I told him that it was Burberry London, and him and his girlfriend came closer and starting sniffing me telling me how good it smelled.
Gentlemen, do not sleep on this legend! Yes it does not get the hype for fall like it used to, but I think it still deserves it. Tonight was the first time in a while that I wore it, and the wafts of beautiful cinnamon, port wine, and tree bark made me wonder why I've neglected this for such a long time.
If you haven't worn this in a while, give it a SOTD/E and remember what you've been missing!
