The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017 by Francis Kurkdjian for Burberry, Antique Oak is a woody fragrance that encapsulates the essence of luxury and heritage. The composition opens with fresh spicy and aromatic notes that create an immediate sense of crisp sophistication. As it settles into its heart, oak and leather introduce warmth and depth, while oud adds a rich, smoky undertone that is both comforting and alluring. The base layers of amber and mossy accords ground the scent in earthy sensuality, making Antique Oak feel like a lasting piece from Burberry's storied legacy.

How to wear it

Antique Oak has a strong base that blooms over time. Apply lightly to pulse points — it needs space to develop its full depth. Ideal for cooler evenings or indoors when you want a scent that lingers close to skin.
