A scent that leaves a trail, marking your presence. Let it envelop you in a cocoon of confidence, guiding your journey. Burberry launches its new Burberry Goddess Eau de Parfum Intense, crafted for empowered women.

Fragrance has a unique power. Sometimes, it takes you back to a memory, other times, it pushes you to new horizons. Burberry Goddess Intense does just that, blending the familiarity of the original Burberry Goddess with an added element that leads you somewhere entirely new.

The original Goddess Eau de Parfum, released last year, quickly earned acclaim, winning BAZAAR’s 2024 Beauty Award for Best Vanilla Fragrance. From the first spritz, it was clear why. This year’s iteration adds a fresh new depth to the Burberry Goddess story.

At the heart of the perfume is a powerful trio of vanilla notes: vanilla infusion, vanilla caviar, and vanilla absolute. These elements come together to create a rich, sweet, and subtle mysterious fragrance, with hints of luminous lavender essence adding an aromatic balance.

The new Burberry Goddess Intense amplifies this beloved formula, deepening its complexity with an intensified vanilla layer. This version introduces a fourth vanilla note—vanilla wood (Vanilla Supercritical Fluid Extract)—which adds a smoky, nuanced character that perfectly complements the fragrance’s inherent sweetness.

The journey begins with a fresh, luminous hint of lavender, offering an approachable sweetness. As the scent deepens, it reveals the heart of the fragrance—a sophisticated blend of the Vanilla Quartet. This complex composition brings together the four distinct vanilla elements.

Together, they echo the depth of the women who wear it. Sweet with a smoky character. The fragrance settles into a base of patchouli, which adds an earthy, woody depth, balancing and grounding the creamy sweetness of vanilla. Overall, giving it a sophisticated edge.
