Body Tender

Body Tender (Burberry, 2013) is a fruity chypre that opens with an unusual quartet: bitter wormwood and lemon cut through juicy apple and peach, giving the top a tart, almost aromatic lift rather than a simple sweet start. That greenish edge is what collectors tend to notice first, and it sets the scent apart from the softer fruity releases of its era.

The heart settles into rose, tea, jasmine and a smooth sandalwood, with rose dominating the composition by a wide margin. The base of musk, cashmere wood, amber and vanilla wraps the florals in a warm, slightly powdery finish. It suits wearers who like a rose-forward chypre with fruit and a clean musk trail — office-friendly and daytime, but with enough bitterness to keep it from feeling generic. Those who prefer crisp, green-tinged florals over sugary gourmands will find it rewarding.

Body Tender（Burberry，2013）屬果香西普調。前調以苦艾、檸檬的微苦清酸開場，蘋果與蜜桃的果香緊隨其後，令起首帶點草本般的銳利感，而非單純甜膩。中調轉入玫瑰、茶、茉莉與檀香，玫瑰比重最高，花香層次清晰。基調以麝香、喀什米爾木、琥珀與雲呢拿收結，溫暖而略帶粉感。整體氣質清雅中見苦韻，適合喜歡玫瑰主導、帶果香與潔淨麝香尾韻的用家；日常上班或日間場合皆宜，較適合偏愛清爽綠意花香、而非甜膩美食調的人。
