    “Sensoriality”?? Ad copy desperate to communicate something, by someone for whom English is not a first language (see been/bean confusion). Am I tempted to even sniff this? Not really sure! LOL!

    I may be the only one, but I love these bottles. Not sure about the fragrances. +1 for sensoriality. 😉

      I think they must have bought a job lot of old ‘My Burberry’ lids now that Burberry aren’t landfilling their old fragrances any more ?

        Even the bottle is almost the same, just smaller!

          Someone just said that on Twitter. The 100 ml isn’t as “My Burberry” like.

      Yeah? I like it better than waiting for the other one to come out, I guess, although also true that I am tired of launches in general.

      I would rather have a his-and-hers launch then a dozen scents all at once, though.

    When taking time to read something that means absolutely nothing feels like the opposite of luxury.

    I will not be smelling these. Feeling grumpy.

    I have the original BV EDP and enjoy it thoroughly. Have not tried any of the numbered ones, bu the rest are all very nicely done. Looking forward to smelling this one.

    Reports are BV has a new creative director and these are very boring and unimaginitive (citrus, shampoo, generic floral smells). Such a shame from a fashion house that has produced a really great flagship scent.

      So that must be, the new creative director. I find all Bottega Veneta quite something in the actual perfume enviroment and I am crazy about two of them. Tried these ones today: flowers, citrus, sweet berries, what is this? I was so so so disappointed, cheap stuff. Couldn’t believe it. Now I got it! Another perfume house bites the dust.

      Even the bottles look ridiculous and cheap in reality, that was the first confusing thing.
