Launched in 2008, The Beat for Men by Burberry is a Woody Aromatic fragrance created by perfumers Olivier Polge and Domitille Michalon Bertier. This composition opens with the freshness of citron and black pepper, creating an invigorating start that transitions into a heart of violet, thyme, and geranium. These notes add a layer of complexity before settling into woody and earthy base notes, including vetiver. The Beat for Men is a modern scent that embodies Burberry's blend of British elegance with contemporary design.

Application Tips
One or two sprays are sufficient to capture the essence of this fragrance. The citron and black pepper top notes are invigorating but fade within an hour, making way for the deeper woody and earthy base notes that stay close to the skin throughout the day.
