Burberry Weekend for Women Review

Burberry Weekend comes in a sophisticated package featuring the ubiquitous Burberry tartan design. It’s simple yet chic, and the Burberry label stands out quite prominently.

The perfume bottle is appealing in its simplicity. Light, cylindrical, and easy to hold, it’s remarkably easy to carry around, which can come in handy if you are a frequent traveler. The glass container is also spill-proof and airtight, with its thick silver cap ensuring the fragrance notes remain intact.

Weekend by Burberry is a floral fragrance designed for women. Celebrated perfumer Nathalie Lorson created this charming, elegant, and relaxing scent by adding a cosmopolitan twist to contemporary English notes.

What Does Burberry Weekend Smell Like?

Burberry Weekend for Women is the embodiment of “bottled spring.” It rekindles the euphoric feeling you get upon waking up to a bright morning with the sunshine on your face.

This composition contains 12+ notes. However, they all blend in nicely, each note complementing or bringing out the best in the next. It starts off super fresh and invigorating, then evolves into something slightly sweet and powdery. Eventually, it dries down into a musky, woodsy fragrance, as we’ll see next in this Weekend by Burberry review.

The fragrance opens with fruity-floral top notes. Soothing mignonette and citrusy Mandarin orange transport you to a relaxing countryside vacation while iris, rose hip, sweet hyacinth, nectarine, and violet root accords add floral accents to this refreshing boutique. 

Next comes the heart of the fragrance featuring light and refreshing notes from nectarine, peach blossom, and blue hyacinth. Finally, the perfume wraps up with cedar, sandalwood, and musk at the base, giving depth while establishing a firm foundation for the delicate fragrance notes in the upper layers. 

So how do we describe the scent? A slightly soapy, herbal, floral scent with a hint of sweetness. It’s the perfect balance of floral, fruity, and woody. In other words, it’s simply irresistible!

Weekend by Burberry delivers a decent performance, and the projection is also good. 8-9 hours on the skin is what you can expect in terms of longevity. That said, the performance may be moderate to long-lasting, depending on the wearer.

This scent is not overpowering. It also evolves well as the day progresses. Don’t be surprised to find people appreciating the fragrance and complimenting you on how good you smell.

Once it dries down, it turns into an airy, sweet, ultra-soft, musky floral, leaving a beautiful, light fragrance trail in its wake.
