Burberry BODY Perfume

We hear that Burberry BODY starring Transformers Blockbuster Actress-turned-Model, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is Burberry’s biggest and sexiest campaign launch to date.

Burberry BODY is the first-ever fully integrated fragrance launch across all platforms of the brand and represents the next chapter in 155 years of history. The scent is a feminine and effortlessly sensual fragrance with an eclectic combination of refined ingredients – green absinthe, freesia, and illuminating peach which form the top notes; natural rose, iris, and sandalwood at the heart; woody cashmeran, creamy vanilla, sensual amber, and musk which compose the base.

Designed by Chief Creative Officer Christopher Bailey, the bottle itself is a multi-faceted, iconic glass bottle with rose gold engraved check and made with the same craft, intensity and modernity of the classic trench coat. The jewel-like, elegant and feminine design combines with the sophisticated packaging to create a feeling of pure luxury!
