You may have recently seen Hugo Boss‘ flash Jared Leto-fronted advertising campaign for the new Hugo Just Different aftershave. Just in case it got you salivating, Just Different is now in stock at Fragrance Mad, with the 40ml Eau de Toilette spray priced at £22.49, including delivery. Boss developed Just Different as a modern take on their classic “Hugo” scent for men from way back in 1995, and are marketing the fragrance at the man who embraces new challenges and lives life to the full, cunningly exactly the same target market as every men’s fragrance ever created.

I’m looking forward to seeing the scent for men aimed at those who sit around and relax; to me it seems a bit of a strange marketing ploy to aim your scent at a demographic that doesn’t exist! Anyway, Just Different contains fresh notes of mint and Granny Smith apple at its top; a heart of basil and freesia; and finishes with a base of fir and cashmeran. So, if you’re the kind of guy who lives every second as if it’s his last and aims for the stars in everything you do, Just Different is the scent for you! Or maybe you’ll just judge it on its fresh, spicy notes, and reason that your personality porbably has nothing to do with whether you’ll like it or not…

Burberry Body, the new women’s fragrance from Burberry, hits the shelves of FragranceMad from today. I was so excited when a review sample landed on my desk as Burberry Body is long anticipated and has been in development for years.
First impressions are good, Burberry Body comes packaged in a tall, elegant bottle with a jewel like top – this will look stunning on anyone’s dressing table. Burberry said they wanted to create a ‘sensual and feminine…modern and delicate’ fragrance and I think they’ve succeeded.
This is a floral fragrance at its finest. The rose aspect is immediately apparent without being overwhelming, and this quickly blends with other floral notes to blend in to a warm, woody mid note. It is feminine, sophisticated and romantic but not fussy or overbearing.
Burberry has done a wonderful job at developing such a good all round fragrance. If you’re going to be a winter bride this year this could be the perfect romantic, sensual fragrance for your special day. But equally, maybe you just want to treat yourself to a brand new fragrance that you could wear to a special meal, out for lunch or to work to make you feel fabulous. Burberry Body would be perfect for almost any occasion or situation.
The thing I like the most about Burberry Body is the warmth and depth of the fragrance; this is a wonderful scent for autumn. I can imagine spritzing it on, then wrapping up warm to go out on a cold day and then catching wonderful wafts of this deliciously feminine warm scent in the cold winter air. The fragrance smells as if it was made to be worn with this season’s warm knits, cosy tights and luxurious scarves.
If the perfume has one downside, it is that it’s not quite ‘edgy’ enough for night time clubbing or parties. It depends on your taste but I love a really deep, sensual perfume for evenings out on the town – think Dior Addict or Calvin Klein Euphoria. Burberry Body wouldn’t quite cut it for me on these occasions, but other than this, it is a definite all-rounder that I’ll definitely be treating myself to and wearing all winter.
Who would I recommend Burberry Body to? Anyone who likes feminine or floral fragrances who wants to feel as though they have been wrapped up in a luxurious, warm, pretty scent. As a guide, if you liked Chloe 2008 or Sarah Jessica Parker Lovely you’ll like this.

Burberry have been responsible for some of the world’s most successful fragrances over the past decade, with Touch, Weekend, and Classic all being constantly great sellers here at Fragrance Mad. Now, Burberry are looking to take themselves to the next level with the launch of new perfume Burberry Body, described by the firm as a brand, not a fragrance, launch, and referred  to as “the biggest launch we have ever done” by Chief Creative Officer, Christopher Bailey.

It’s easy to see why Burberry are putting so much faith in Body as the product to cement and further their appeal as one of the world’s leading design and fragrance houses. Body is a sensual and sophisticated scent with luxurious notes of peach, freesia, and fresh absinthe opening the fragrance; moving into a heart of rose, iris, and sandalwood; and finising with a gorgeous base of cashmeran, amber, musk, and creamy vanilla. One whiff of this high-class scent and you’ll be in heaven! The decadent theme continues through Body’s bottle and packaging, both designed with the utmost tactility and prestige in mind.

At Fragrance Mad we’ve got Body available in 35ml, 60ml, and 85ml Eau de Parfum sprays, with prices starting from £45.
