London Eau de Parfum

Nearly completed my second 100ml bottle of London. I’ve had London a long time. Can’t believe I haven’t provided my input on this superb fragrance. I wear it fall and winter in mild Mojave desert climate. So it’s a little cold but not bone Chilling cold where I live. Nearly a compliment almost every time I wear London. Product value is through the roof with this one. Spend a little and you have an alluring spice, cinnamon, fall and winter time fragrance that doesn’t cut corners on quality. Moderate projection. Think deep evocative joyful memories of fall and winter occasions embedded in this fragrance. Price=excellent. Scent= top shelf and original in contrast to say scents like stronger with you/azzaro wanted lines. I will always have London in my collection!

In the past I had the 3.4 Oz black cap version of Burberry London for men and it was very sweet spicy and lasted a good deal of time. I decided to re-up on it since I ran out and the version I received has a silver cap. It smells very different. It still has a spiciness to it but it's much lighter and fresher and not as sweet. I'm bummed because it also lasts a hell of a lot less time and projects less too. If you buy Burberry London for men and you loved the vintage formulation they used to have, I do not recommend buying the reformulated bottles with the silver cap. Even though it's relatively cheap it was also relatively disappointing to see that they've changed to a lighter and fresher version of what used to be Christmas in a bottle.

I've smelled this a couple of times on and off over the last few years in Boots & fragrance shops. I have never been blown away by it. Then, one early Autumn day in 2026 I tried it in a boots a few towns over. The person working at boots randomly prayed about 6 sprays on my forearm. I spent the whole day getting a really nice peppery lift/ siliage from my forearm. I decided to get a bottle and ordered from Notino. The bottle that arrived smelled very generic slightly sweet and old fashioned cheap fragrance. I've sprayed it a bunch of times hoping that once the level has dropped and more oxygen is in the bottle it will get a bit more spicy/ peppery. However, it could be a batch thing.

The first fragrance my dad gave to me when I was in junior high school? Pretty crazy. But nonetheless, I absolutely love this fragrance. Very suitable for a signature scent, a unique but still a appealing masculine scent. I wish some middle eastern brand duped this so my student budget could afford it haha🥲 But nonetheless, I will be buying this again once I save up the money for it. Though it smells a bit different when I smelled a new one at my local department store but I guess that'a because my dads one had been macerating for a loooonngggg time😂

I had it once, sold it for some reason, regretted it, now I got it as a present. It's really good. I get mainly tobacco with soft spiciness -- it's not exactly a photorealistic tobacco leaf, and it's not in-your-face cinnamon, but everything is balanced. There is a sweet coumarin note in the mix, which could be tonka bean, but it could also be lavender. And I get an association with grass or hay -- the most distinctive aspect for me. I don't get much leather, but the basenotes are grounded, so there might be a polite leather accord.
