Eau de Toilette

Burberry for Men Eau de Toilette is a fresh, green and spicy men's scent built around lavender, thyme and bergamot, suited to spring and daytime wear. It opens with lavender, thyme, bergamot and mint, a fresh citrus start. In the heart, geranium, sandalwood and moss carry the floral and green side, while cedarwood and amber settle the base into something woody and lightly sweet. Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, the office and leisure. About half of voters find it masculine, and many also call it classic. Zara Zara Man and Mazzolari Augusto have a close profile.
