So i just received my bottle of Burberry London and i have to say that I am not very impressed. In fact i am kind of disappointed. Maybe my tastes haven''t developed very much or maybe the bottle is bad or maybe it's because the bottle is brand new but I am 20 years old and this scent seems very strong, deep and overwhelming, not something that most people in my age group want to smell. I guess i shouldn't have bought without sampling but there are no department stores near me and i don't have a car (college kid that bikes everywhere).
I enjoyed Le Male (my first cologne I wore regularly) and i also really liked a bottle of Polo that my friend gave me but i don't know which type (polo black, polo blue, polo sport?) I was wondering if these pictures could help decipher it:
The whole bottle.
The cap.
The bottom of the bottle.
I wore this daily and enjoyed it a lot. I want to buy a bottle of cologne i can wear daily, just something with a pleasing scent that i enjoy, Burberry London seems like too rich of a scent to wear daily. What colognes do you guys recommend as daily scents?
I was also wondering how long my bottle of Burberry London will last - like how long the scent will be good. I was thinking of reserving it as something i wear on more adult occasions as it seems like a more adult cologne but it is 3.3oz and i don't know how long it will last if i only use it for those special occasions. Maybe if it will last i can come back to it in a couple years when i am older and possibly appreciate the scent a little more.
Thanks for the advice!
EDIT: Okay so i have had Burberry London on me for about a half an hour and either the scent is fading or my olfactory senses are adjusting because the scent now seems more bearable and less overwhelming. I suppose this is just a scent I am going to have to wear lightly...which is odd considering many of the reviews say that the scent has bad projection throughout the day and typically only lasts a couple hours. In either case i don't think i was expecting the strong peppery scent and that threw me off. Advice is still greatly appreciated.
