The Beat EDT Burberry for women

I cannot make up my mind about this one. Every time I smell it, it leaves a huge amount of SOMETHING lacking, and I keep going back to smell it to try to "process" the scent but I just can't. My first impression, honestly, was that this smelled exactly like soap. So it's an extremely clean scent, and also quite masculine - I'd say the most masculine off all the Burberry perfumes. This is something I'd wear when I don't want others to think I'm wearing perfume. It would definitely be safe for work since it has about zero projection. The scent doesn't come across as complex and is definitely "safe."

I'm probably going to try to get rid of this bottle. If you are interested please contact me (I have the 2.5oz EDT with the white top).

Very powdery at first whiff, with just a touch of Citrus tang. It's not incredibly strong, which I like. I'm a bit on the fence at the moment. If it stays at this level of powder, that would be perfect. If it gets more intense, it will be too much and I will have to say sayonara. We shall see...

EDIT: I am very happy to say that it didn't get over powdery :-) I was so happy when the Tea and Citrus popped out. I can honestly say I don't usually feel incredibly feminine, but this scent helps me get in touch with that side. Keeper :-)

This was quite a pleasant surprise for me, I was needing a citrus summer scent, and I think I've found it :)

This reminds me, or rather the drydown reminds me of Bvlgari Viole de Jasmine. I know jasmine isn't listed but I have no doubt I'm smelling a beautiful jasmine flower.

First I'm hit with overtly bright lemony citrus, which almost instantly starts to settle, I'm now smelling hints of grassy greens, but it's fleeting, the dry down smells much of jasmine, like Bvlgari 'viole de jasmine', but with the added bonus of a bright beutiful citrus, the type that's perfect for hot weather...but the citrus is soft now and faint, the jasmine sits close to the skin, but not quite as close as Bvlgari's

Overall I'd say that this is a very prety, well played Classy, energising, but relaxing jasmine citrus with hints of green and the tiniest touch of powder.

I'm really lovin' this stuff, very surprised indeed :)

This one is just so likable. Its really fresh, and floral and powdery all at the same time. Its quite comforting and not sickenly sweet or headache-y. Makes you think of a stunning British summer day when you get up and the sun is shining. Its definately got that energising, green smell as well as the lovely ceylon note. Its a pity the fragrance is a tad weak but I really really enjoy this one.

It's very different from Burberry Brit. When sprayed at first, I could smell alcohol, and after a little time I could smell the scent itself. Has a little freshness on bottom notes. In general it's very weak scent..fades away very quickly unfortunately.

love it.fresh & elegant . English style

This one is a light, fresh floral which is unoffensive without being overly generic. I really like it. It smells like Burberry Sport, except its a sharper floral with a little more citrus to it. If you already have Burberry sport then you don't need this one & vice versa. Staying power is kind of weak.. only lasts about 3 hours.

This one is quite safe and very boring. smells rather nice, creamy and more like a body lotion than a perfume. I dont find this one fresh, still it could be a perfect choice for office or daytime wear if you tend to be shy and dont want to be noticed...quite longlasting...with no up and downs or any surprise.

its not a review its a recollection.i go to lahore to buy all my stuff. so i went to the perfume store and found this!it was perfect.i bought it,came home opened the bland box to lose myself in the spirit of freshness and i found out.....they had bloody given me the wrong one(the pink and silver one which smells totally different)i tried to get it exchanged the next day but the store wouldnt budge so i was stuck with the other one which i didnt love nearly as much as this

Okay, I am a huge fan of D&G light blue. I used to wear it for years. However, I recently discovered that I was allergic to it and it made me itch. So I had been searching for a replacement and I found it!!! I absolutely love this scent! Its nice, light, and fresh and has similar notes to Light Blue. But its not as popular (wish I love) because too many people have seem to discover light blue.

When I first put this on I was in love! However it's one of those, head over heels moments and then after a while you start noticing the flaws and you can't wait to get rid of it.
Great in the beginning, full of body, fresh, girly and different, BUT does tend to fade quickly and then you're left with a dissapointing, bland, insipid, after taste. Not appealing at all.
Pity had so much potential

Someone gave this to me because she did not want it anymore. It's nice, foral and a bit fresh, but I couldn't find anything special or really enjoyable in it. The staying power is weak and I just didn't like it much. There has to be something I enjoy in a scent and this didn't have anything.

very fresh, feminine and comfy - perfect for everyday wearing. unfortunatly, somebody liked it more than me(as i guess of somebody stoled it from my bag, hah)

Smelled it today. Very nice I must say. Feminine, fruity and warm.

And this comes from a guy, if that matters.

I found like others here, that (on me) it was weak. It only lasted like an hour and I missed the middle notes :/

The Beat EDT, smells young and cheerful and clean, modern and energetic. I think Burberry does a good mainstream job again. The scent goes on a little strong so be careful with how many sprays you use, but it is long lasting and very wearable. The packaging is way fantastic. The shape is like a hip flask and etched with a Burberry plaid design. Very charming.

I love this scent. I've been searching for a fragrance to stay with for a long time and finally I've found it!

The Beat EdT is fresh and citrusy but not sharp. It doesn't smell of lemons but rather of... well mandarin oranges perhaps? ;)

In the same time as it's really fresh it's also comforting. As if there was vanilla in it but in so small amounts that it doesn't get sweet or heavy at all.

The only sad thing is that the scent disappears too soon.

To me the EdP is a totally different fragrance. That one's just heavy - I can't stand it. The EdT on the other hand is perfect. So light in every way and just oh-so-wonderfully-smelling!

It is sexy, playfull, a beautiful young fragrance but ..sooo weak!!! just 15 minutes and it has gone !!! it should be just a mist!!!

Strange as it may seem the top notes are similar to Moschino Funny and Incanto Bliss put together at least on my skin. It's fresh, careless and sweet, a totally wearable EDT for the summer. Although not listed, I can detect some pepper in it in the top notes. Unlike other reviewers say, this lasted quite long on my skin, it's just not loud. It comes to the signature Burberry soft vanilla/musk dry-down, just a bit fresher. If you have tried the EDP, you might recognise the mossy note in the drydown, but it's barely there. Certainly it has less character than the EDP (and it differs from it significantly), but it's still lovely.On clothes it leaves a clean laundry impression. Yeah, I already imagine myself wearing this at my favorite beach bar. This is more than perfect for summer and everyday wear.

On my skin, it's totally different from the edp and it smells almost exactly like D&G Light blue !

It's a sweet floral fragrance, but on my skin it becomes very warm sweet at the end. To sweet, so i have to be careful not to overdose.
A pitty it doesn't stay as fresh as when i spray it on.

Both the original and this later, less concentrated version of The Beat had little lasting power on my skin. Disappointed was I that they hadn't made a more intense version of The Beat.

This fragrance was so light that I could barely smell it at first. A subtle citrusy opening was all that I could detect when I pressed my nose to my wrist.

Eventually The Beat EDT strengthens a little allowing me to enjoy the introduction of the tea and iris notes. This fragrance is very refined and classy, like MoietToi mentioned. However, it is a far cry from the original which possessed a boozy like quality that I really enjoyed.

The original had spunk, but this lighter version is enough to make me yawn. Summing up The Beat EDT; a basic yet pleasant floral with hints of citrus and tea. Need I say more?

What??? I´d like to know why Burberry released an EDT version of Beat. The original version, EDP, is so light and with weak staying power - it could be considered already an EDT.
I love The Beat, but it is way too light.

IMO, this version is a waste of money.

I love this perfume!!

I was given this perfume as a gift from my Dad. Anyways I spritzed it on and I smelled this cloud of tea,lavender and something citrusy. When I smell this scent I imagene myself sitting in an old fashioned English garden drinking tea and eating scones. Very classy yet extremely comforting. One spritz is enough allthough beaucse it's really strong.

OMG I just bought it and wow I'm so in love with it!!!!
Amazing,so girly and young..
I really really love it!!!

One of the most differnt modern fragrances burberry have done in a long while x

Very playful and energetic but I don't know how to say Ummmm I think it's not worth for me to purchase.So simple for me and I'm not falling in love with it!

The fragrance is really pleasant, refreshing and light, however its staying power is very very weak!!! I sprayed on my wrist and after 15 (!?) minutes there was nothing! I wouldn't buy it, it is the weakest perfume I have ever tried!

Vetiver, tea, musk. very unisex, a bit of spring, but not especially original. Nothing sexy about it - which is surprising given the musk note - then again, it is a very synthetic musk. other fragrances might be peeking in and out here and there.... bluebell??? who could tell over the big domineering tea/musk/generic citrus aromas? cardamom is an absolute fav of mine, but undetectable here. Pink pepper? I know that's the hawt little ingredient for 2008, but where is it in this mix?

Could be a high end Burberry scent, could be the fragrance added to a man's deoderant stick, could be gym locker deodorant for a high-end raquet club. overall, this one gets a "meh".

a feminine fall fragrance, first it seems a bit too sweet but once it settles you feel the wamrth of the woody notes
