Body Tender

The fleeting moment when sunlight filters through the leaves of a tree-lined avenue, casting dappled shadows and infusing the air with the scent of fresh fruit and soft florals.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2013 by Burberry, Body Tender is a chypre fruity fragrance crafted by perfumer Michel Almairac. This composition opens with the crisp freshness of lemon and apple, balanced by the aromatic depth of wormwood and tea. The heart notes feature rose and jasmine, adding a soft floral touch before settling into a warm base of sandalwood, cashmere wood, musk, amber, and vanilla. Body Tender is an embodiment of Burberry's distinctive elegance, blending fresh and fruity elements with rich, enveloping warmth.

How to wear it

Apply Body Tender liberally on pulse points for an all-day warmth. The lemon and apple top notes dissipate quickly, but the rich base notes will linger throughout the day, making it perfect for both daytime wear and evening outings.
