Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Burberry London won by a long shot! I'm excited. I've just given London a casual sniff. I'm happy to get an excuse for an actual wearing. Plus, this frag can be found @ most dept stores so finding samples shouldn't be a problem. And due to its popularity, I'm sure some generous basenoters won't mind sending out some samples!
Sooo...who's in??

I'm ready!!! I have my 100ml bottle in hand and prepared to break my last record of 50 sprays of this stuff and maybe ... I'll get half a day's longevity out of it. I love this scent but I swear Hermes D'Orange Verte Concentree is the only frag that lasts shorter on my skin than Burberry London.
But I'll spray everything on Oct. 15th ... arms, knees, ass, ... whatever it takes.

It’s thought that people who hope too much will just waste their life away and never get down to doing any real work. They’re confusing Hope with Wish, its lazy cousin... When Wish whispers, “Something is just around the corner,” what comes or not is never what was wished for. When Hope whispers “Something is just around the corner,” something always is. -- Charlie Elberson

I love cologne.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
I have to get a sample of this, I don't own it.
Smelled it once at Neimans and liked it much better than I expected to. Of course, it's been recommended to me many times, since I'm such a cinnamon whore. Looking forward to giving it a full wearing!

I... um... I... um. I sniffed the London at the Macy's? And the policeman man said to me "How much have you been drink?" And I said to him "London! Say, you got a smoke? 'Cause it's a pipe tobacco, too!" But he didn' b'lieve me, so now my 'torney's gonna buy me a bottle. Not, booze, silly! London! He says it proves I ain't drinkin'. I mean drunk.

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Like I said, I will be in Houston that day. I own a bottle and will make a sample to take down with me. If I am brave enough, I will wear it on the 15th.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Count me in. I'll need 50 sprays, too. Although I'm probably just anosmic, and people will collapse around me...

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Yes, London! I'm all over it.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
I'll be in on it, if I can find a sample! Any fragrance store would be way too far out of the way, and I haven't had a job for two months, so using the gas to get there and then back would be a complete waste

Sadly this is not available at all in South AfricaWill have to do with my M7 I voted for.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Grabbed me a sample from Sephora this past weekend in anticipation.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Good news. Picked up a bottle recently. It'll be the first time I've had the scent for synch day.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Totally in. Totally excited.

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
I have a bottle, so I'm in. A lot of people who will wear this for the first time on SDD, will get a pleasant surprise! It really is a very good and original scent and perfect for fall.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
I'll probably be wearing it anyway, during these brisk eastern months (along with my Floris Santal). I'll definitely be in.
As an aside this is my first post here.

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
could someone explain what synch day is ? I'm new to this.
I have Burberry London.
Do you mean you are going to wear it on this date 10/15/2008 ??

Yup, just make it your SotD.

Bought a mini of Burberry London, as well as Encre Noire for about 8 dollars each...I'm very happy with both of them.
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Ok, guys, 15/10 is my birthday and I was going to be with my signature TdH but I will do the London stuff
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
LOL ^^I will order it blindly, so you all go to hell if it's a shite
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Well, I couldn't resist the temptation and also this time I decided to be wiser (instead of throwing money for blind orders), so I went to the shopping mall and put few sprays on my wrist and neck. First impression - sour cherry (not listed as ingredient, maybe the wine?), pepper, tobacco, leather. It is in fact very interesting fragrance, individual, classy. I like it but it is still not my The One
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
My sample will probably be running low by then, but I'll try to save enough to wear for 2 weeks. I'm in, unless I space it out
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
I think this is funny. you are the first one i read here who said it smells like cherry. I also thought so and wondered that noone thought the same way. Like moncherie ^^Well, I couldn't resist the temptation and also this time I decided to be wiser (instead of throwing money for blind orders), so I went to the shopping mall and put few sprays on my wrist and neck.

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
Hmm, very strange - I think Gucci Por Homme II also has cherry but that's not mentioned in the notes, which makes me thinks either there is indeed unlisted cherry or there is some combination of notes which causes few particular noses - like yours and mine - to detect cherry whereas it is in fact not there. Who knows... By the way, the smell of sour cherry I am describing is actually a very particular smell of a home-made sour cherry jam and juice which my mother used to prepare in the past. I haven't met this particular kind of smell in any commercially sold product very often. I think it is regular cherry (and not sour cherry) which is used commercially and it is kind of different. Maybe that's the reason why people don't recognize what's in London as cherry?
P.S. I have just checked in my bulgarian-english dictionary that what I am calling "sour-cherry" should be translated as morello-cherry in english.

Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
tell you what...since i dont got this... ill goto the mall and spray some on myself...
Re: Scent Synch Day - 10/15/08 - Burberry London
I have read some good things about Burberry scents but just can't take them seriously after the 'Chav' image that surrounds the clothing here in UK.
I had to burn a £*** shirt because I didn't want to be associated with the people wearing cheap copies.
My £*** Stone Island pullover has gone the same way.
