The Burberry fragrance collection of fresh, youthful, and vibrant feminine perfumes has attracted a cult following of forward-thinking women. The best Burberry perfumes for summer combine delightful floral notes with seductive fruits, woods, and musks for a modern twist on fragrance.

Unlike many fashion houses, Burberry’s introduction into the world of perfumery was with a men’s fragrance in 1981. Their very first feminine fragrance was the stunning chypre floral ‘Society’, launched by the house in 1991.

7 Best Burberry Perfumes for Summer

We’ve chosen seven of the best Burberry perfumes for summer that offers the perfect balance of fruits, florals, and musks to keep you in the summertime mood.

1. Burberry Her Eau de Parfum

Burberry Her Eau de Parfum

Review

Burberry Her Eau de Parfum is the first pillar fragrance to have the new Burberry logo attached. Launched in 2018 it was blended by Francis Kurkdjian to capture the adventurous, youthful, and vibrant spirit of London. 

Floral and fruity by turns, this perfume also has gourmand undertones and a robust base. The result is a sweet and heady blend which is lifted by notes of orange and lemon as well as sharp cherry. 

Initially citrus combined with the scent of strawberry and raspberry, the dry-down reveals notes of blackcurrant and musk and woody aromas. Reminiscent of a summer day in the park, this lasting perfume will stick with you for 4 to 6 hours.

Despite being simple, the presentation of Burberry Her is striking. With one flat, square edge, one rounded side, and the raised logo it invites the touch. It is the off-centre nozzle and pale pink topper which will really make it stand out from the other bottles on your dressing table.

Top Notes:

Raspberry, Strawberry, Sour cherry, Blackcurrant, Blackberry

Mid Notes:

Violet, Jasmine

Base Notes:

Patchouli, Musk, Cashmeran, Amber, Oakmoss, Woody notes, Vanilla

2. Burberry Her Blossom Eau de Toilette

Burberry Her Blossom Eau de Toilette

Review

One of the newest Burberry fragrances for women, Burberry Her Blossom Eau de Toilette, is a sister perfume to the original Burberry Her. 

Francis Kurkdjian, who is the nose behind Burberry Her, has mixed this fragrance under the eye of new creative director Riccardo Tisci. This is a much simpler blend which makes use of potent ingredients to create a sophisticated and fresh final product. 

The initial opening of this fragrance consists of mandarin orange and the warm spice of pink pepper seep. The peony and plum blossom in the heart of the fragrance provides a floral, almost powdery, feel. The base of musk and sandalwood make this a flexible perfume which can also be worn in spring and autumn (but it’s really best worn in summer).

Presented in the same quirky, off-beat bottle as the original, Burberry Her Blossom makes only a few changes to the trim and colour of the topper. As a result, this looks functionally the same as its older sister.

Top Notes:

Pink Pepper, Mandarin Orange

Mid Notes:

Plum Blossom, Peony

Base Notes:

Musk, Sandalwood

3. Burberry My Burberry Eau de Toilette

Burberry My Burberry Eau de Toilette

Review

Another stunning fragrance blended by Francis Kurkdjian, My Burberry Eau de Toilette was launched in 2015. Fresh and youthful, it has quickly become a favourite amongst young women who like to blend traditional fashion with bold, modern twists.

This delightfully floral fragrance opens with the sparkling notes of sweet pea and lemon blossom. Enticing floral aromas of peony and freesia bloom from the heart, and combine with white moss and damask rose in the base.

The surprisingly soft sillage belies the durable nature of this perfume; it blooms over time rather than merely fading, which makes it incredibly pleasant to wear. Not the most durable of fragrances, it nonetheless gives a good 3 hours of wear per application. If you apply it to clothes or hair, you can expect it to last longer.

The squat, squarish clear bottle featuring bronze colour topper in pearlescent sheen gives this perfume an understated elegance. The champagne coloured ribbon decorating the neck breaks up the otherwise simple silhouette and adds a touch of luxury.

Top Notes:

Lemon Blossom, Sweet Pea

Mid Notes:

Freesia, Peony, Peach Blossom

Base Notes:

Damask Rose, White Moss, Musk

4. Burberry My Burberry Eau de Parfum

Burberry My Burberry Eau de Parfum

Review

My Burberry Eau de Parfum was blended by Francis Kurkdjian in attempt to launch Burberry into the top 10 for luxury fragrances. This lofty aim was backed up with some of the most beautiful natural ingredients, and the result is stunning. 

The intense opening of heady notes, introduces us to delicious pea and quince aroma, producing an underlying sweetness which is almost juicy. When the first wave fades, the gentle floral notes are met with an exotic fruity heart of peach and passionfruit. Underpinned by patchouli, the bouquet is settled down into the base of leather aromas and musk.

Complex and vibrant, this fragrance could almost be too much for summer, but citrus and green notes prevent it from becoming cloying. Expect a solid 4 or 5 hours of wear from this scent.

The bottle has a similar look to the rest of the ‘My Burberry’ iterations.  However, there is a more opulent feel to it. The topper has a high shine to it, turning the matte or pearlescent brown of other versions to a shining bronze.

Top Notes:

Sweet Pea, Bergamot, Lemon, Grapefruit, Orange

Mid Notes:

Gardenia, Freesia, Quince, Passionfruit, Peach, Green Notes, Geranium

Base Notes:

Damask Rose, Rose, Patchouli, Leather, Musk, Violet

5. My Burberry Blush Eau de Parfum

My Burberry Blush Eau de Parfum

Review

The latest addition to the ‘My Burberry’ family of scents, My Burberry Blush Eau de Parfum was blended by Francis Kurkdjian with the vibrancy of youthful women in mind. 

The mix of traditional, floral notes and fresh, spicy scents make this a bold, sensual, and intricate fragrance which invigorates rather than soothes. 

Opening with notes of apple and pomegranate that lead the way to a dominant scent of rose in the heart. Slowly melting away, the crisp fruits almost disappear into the flirty, sweet base of florals, a beautiful bouquet of jasmine and wisteria. This gorgeous combination of perfume notes creates a fresh and subtle feminine aroma.

Presented simply in the ‘My Burberry’ signature bottle, My Burberry Blush takes on a silvery purple colouring which is more in keeping with the scent and name of this iteration. The result is simple but effective.

Top Notes:

Lemon, Pomegranate

Mid Notes:

Rose, Apple, Geranium

Base Notes:

Wisteria, Jasmine

6. Burberry Brit Sheer Eau de Toilette

Burberry Brit Sheer Eau de Toilette

Review

A floral and fruity Burberry Brit Sheer Eau de Toilette is a surprising fragrance containing tropical perfume notes. Opening with an exotic bouquet of pineapple, lychee and yuzu aromas, the top notes settle down into peachy heart accompanied by the peony aroma. 

The beautiful fruity-floral scent fades very quickly into the musky-woody base, bringing together all aromatic notes, giving a depth to the fragrance. 

Despite having a soft sillage, this perfume is relatively durable and will stick with you through all but the heaviest of days.

Simply presented in a tall, textured bottle which is tinted light pink. The lucid plastic topper, which shows the nozzle, gives it a youthful and somewhat pop-ish look. In fact, it’s reminiscent of the trend for colourful, translucent plastic accessories which took over in the early 2000s.

Top Notes:

Pineapple, Lychee, Yuzu, Mandarin Orange

Mid Notes:

Peach Blossom, Peach, Pink Peony

Base Notes:

Whitewoods, White Musk

7. Burberry Brit Rhythm Floral Eau de Toilette

Burberry Brit Rhythm Floral Eau de Toilette

Review

Like many of Burberrys female fragrances, Brit Rhythm Floral Eau de Toilette is a lovely floral scent, that is sharpened and lifted by ozonic and aquatic notes. Sensual and sophisticated it was inspired by the British rock scene. 

The opening notes of citruses and passion fruits met with the exotic florals in the mids produce beautifully fresh, sweet aroma. Heady notes of lotus flower enrich the heart with a pleasant fruitiness. Once it begins to mellow, the juicy sweetness of lemon and passionfruit come together with powdery musk and amber and the woody notes in the base.

Despite its potent array of ingredients, this is a reasonably fragile perfume. The scent will lose its lustre within an hour or two, and you can expect it to have faded entirely within 3 to 4 hours. Like Burberry Brit Sheer, this fragrance is presented in a simple, textured bottle with a transparent topper. The square topper and diamond pattern give the otherwise plain bottle a little bit of life and flair.

Top Notes:

Sicilian Lemon, Orange, Bergamot, Passionfruit, Peach

Mid Notes:

Ozonic Notes, Melon, Lotus, Lilac, Egyptian Jasmine, Lily-of-the-valley

Base Notes:

Caramel, Driftwood, Amber, Musk, Woody Notes
