Launched in 2023 by Burberry, Goddess Eau de Parfum is signed by perfumer Amandine Clerc-Marie. The house describes a gourmand carried by a trio of vanillas heightened by luminous lavender. Wikiparfum classifies the composition among florals, while Burberry claims it as aromatic gourmand. The fragrance received the Fragrance of the Year award at the Fragrance Foundation Awards 2024, and stands out as the house's first refillable fragrance.
Top
Burberry announces a top built on a vanilla infusion paired with lavender, the latter described by the house as luminous.
Heart note
The house places a caviar vanilla at its heart, continuing the trio of vanillas that structures the whole composition.
Base
The base rests on a vanilla absolute, within the structure that Burberry distributes to its retailers.
What the label declares
The label lists coumarin, a raw material with hay and almond accents that frequently accompanies vanilla in gourmand compositions. Linalool, a major constituent of lavender oil, and hydroxycitronellal, a floral molecule from the lily of the valley family, also appear on the list. The list also mentions limonene, geraniol and citral, as well as anisic alcohol, and yellow 5 and red 4 colorants.
Other readings
Wikiparfum proposes a distinct structure, opening on bergamot and lavender in the top notes, with vanilla and shiso in the base, with no heart note specified, which differs from the trio of vanillas that Burberry claims.
