The Elixir of My Burberry Black is England — a rainy country but no less appealing, provided one has a jacket that is waterproof enough yet breathable enough to venture out and discover its lands.
The house of Burberry, famous for its timelessly chic trench coats, has not finished exhaling the scented notes of its Great Britain through floral and sensual women's perfumes. In 2014, the house introduced My Burberry as the effluvium of this trench coat worn against the skin in an English garden. Then My Burberry became My Burberry Black under the aegis of the same creator, to depict this garden at the hour when the flowers go to sleep. So what will become of My Burberry Black Nectar de Parfum?
My Burberry Black Elixir de Parfum, the new jewel born of English gardens by Burberry
Weekend, Touch, London, or indeed Brit — ever since its very first perfume in 1981, the venerable house of Burberry has continually sung the praises of its British lands through compositions that reveal a contrast between floral delicacy and sensual strength.
In introducing My Burberry, composed by the famous Francis Kurkdjian in 2014, the house reaffirmed its values and its style through a fragrance as soft as it is powerful, intended to symbolize its trench coat, famous the world over. After several attractive flankers, My Burberry would go on to cultivate the darker facet of its velvety face in the sweet, rosy and amber swirls of My Burberry Black, again composed by Francis Kurkdjian.
The essence evokes a London garden in stormy weather, when the rain releases warm scents of flowers. The juice intertwines the scent of sun-drenched jasmine and that of peach nectar with the sensual note of rose. Burberry, on My Burberry Black.
In December 2017, the brand will offer My Burberry Black a more intense version of this storm in an English garden with My Burberry Black Nectar de Parfum, which will retain the beauty of roses and jasmine while enveloping itself in swirls of woody smoke and assertive gourmand notes intended as a nod to Christmas festivities.
Amber sensuality with gourmand power for a captivating My Burberry Black Elixir de Parfum
For My Burberry Black Nectar de Parfum, Francis Kurkdjian brings together in a single fragrance all the smoky, candied and generous scents that transport us to an English garden, but above all to an English home at Christmastime. Thus My Burberry Black Nectar de Parfum retains the beauty of its predecessors while displaying entirely new gourmand, fresh and floral roundness.
Where My Burberry Black opened with notes of jasmine, My Burberry Black Nectar de Parfum chooses to turn toward notes of candied lemon while preserving the beauty of jasmine flowers. At the heart, the signature of the My Burberry range is preserved through rose absolute, but this time praline almond plays the surprise guest, turning powdery and delightfully gourmand. Finally, no more patchouli in the depths — instead, for this My Burberry Black Nectar de Parfum, a smoking sandalwood, burning like a mysterious cloud that would conceal the beauties of this rosy, sensual perfume.
