"Golden Globe winner Rachel Weisz is the face of Burberry’s new pillar
fragrance, Burberry London.
Launching worldwide this spring, it will hit UK and US counters in mid-
February, followed by a pan-European roll-out in March and the Far East in
April.

President of Burberry Fragrances, Marcella Cacci, told Cosmetics
International that the fragrance would be as big as its current top-seller,
Burberry Brit. “This will be another pillar fragrance for us,” she said.
Christopher Bailey, Burberry’s creative director, described the new fragrance
as iconic. “Fragrance is a very big part of Burberry fashion,” he
commented. “The whole outfit, including the handbag and fragrance, matters.
The perfume compliments the total look.”

Cacci emphasised that the scent attempts to embody the city of London,
merging the worlds of fashion and fragrance. It is also a product which aims
to define the core fashion collection. This is highlighted by the perfume’s
packaging: the bottle is wrapped in Burberry’s famous check fabric while the
outer carton bears the same fabric label as the one stitched into the
clothes.
The fragrance itself was created by Dominique Ropion of IFF. The elegant and
sophisticated floral jus features top notes of rose, clementine and
honeysuckle. Heart notes comprise tiaré flower, peony and jasmine with base
notes of sandalwood, musk and patchouli.
The launch will be supported by a print ad campaign shot by Mario Testino,
featuring Rachel Weisz and Ioan Gruffudd. Cacci said that the male
counterpart fragrance, Burberry London for Men, would launch in the autumn. A
TV campaign starring the two actors will also run in the fourth quarter to
support Christmas sales of both fragrances."

      "On the heels of its fragrant success with Burberry Brit, French company Inter
      Parfums is banking on another hit with new checked-clad women’s line named
      Burberry London set to hit shelves this spring. “We are hoping that [Burberry
      London] will break the $100m mark in retail worldwide,” Burberry president
      Marcella Cacci tells Cosmeticnews.com, adding that the launch is expected to
      overtake the sales of the three-year old Brit. “Brit will lose some of its
      ground but that is natural coming off the launches [but it] will remain an
      important pillar in the portfolio,” she says, adding, “Right now Brit is the
      biggest franchise - in 2005 Brit for women and Brit for men made up 42% of the
      sales for 2005.”

      Burberry London was made for the more sophisticated, older woman as opposed to
      Brit which was conceived to capture the more playful, eclectic younger woman.
      The floral fragrance, composed by Dominique Ropion from IFF, includes notes of
      rose and honeysuckle at the opening, mingling into tiaré flower and jasmine in
      the heart. The base includes notes of sandalwood and musk.

      The bottle, wrapped in checked fabric designed by Fabien Baron in collaboration
      with Burberry creative director Christopher Bailey, recalls the renowned
      checked-codes of the Brit line. “[Brit] was a very iconic design. Our customer
      has an emotional connection with the Burberry brand and […] it’s important to
      have those icons and those references to the brand. Brit and London are very
      close to the core of the brand and the brand’s DNA.” The checked pattern in
      textured trompe-l’oeil effect is echoed in the outer packaging.

      TV and print advertising, along with a strong sampling campaign and visuals at
      points of sales will back the London launch. Cacci explains the three dimension
      campaign: “We’ll have a spring campaign for the women, and then we’ll have a
      men-only campaign [for the new men’s fragrance launching] in early fall and
      then we’ll come back in the fourth quarter, our heaviest selling period with a
      dual campaign and a dual commercial. It’s kind of a love story that the
      consumer can follow,” Cacci hints. The visual was shot by Mario Testino and
      stars UK actress Rachel Weisz.
      The five-sku line comprises three EdPs, €74 (100ml), €53 (50ml), €36 (30ml) and
      two ancillary products (Delicately Floral Shower Gel, €29, and the Delicately
      Floral Body Lotion €30). Burberry London will rollout to 17,000 doors
      worldwide, beginning in the US and UK from mid February, Europe in March and
      Asia in April."

      "Burberry's Olfactory Ode to London
      By Brid Costello with contributions by Pete Born

      LONDON — Burberry has London all wrapped up.
      The brand, which launched the phenomenally successful Burberry Brit fragrance
      in 2003, will introduce Burberry London, a women's scent, starting next month
      with its licensee, Inter Parfums SA.
      The new fragrance, which features a bottle swathed in Burberry's signature
      plaid fabric, will be fronted by Rachel Weisz, who earlier this month picked up
      a best supporting actress Golden Globe award for her role in "The Constant
      Gardener."

      Burberry London is the first new fragrance franchise to be created under Inter
      Parfums' Burberry Fragrances division, which was formed last year and is headed
      by Marcella Cacci.
      "When we started to work on the concept, we wanted to embody the city of London
      and celebrate the city of London," said Cacci at the scent's preview, held on a
      fittingly gray and rainy morning in the British capital.
      If the scent's ode to London is as successful as Brit, which embodied the
      spirit of renewal at the storied fashion house, the brand could be on to
      another winner.
      "I think we can repeat the performance [of Burberry Brit]," said Philippe
      Benacin, president of Paris-based Inter Parfums SA.

      According to industry sources, that could see the new scent generating retail
      sales in the region of $100 million in its first year.
      Burberry's fragrance business overall has been on a skyward trajectory in
      recent years, clocking up retail sales of about 400 million euros, or $491
      million at current exchange, in 2005. Benacin forecast that figure could rise
      to between 600 million euros, or $737 million, and 650 million euros, or $798
      million, by 2008.
      Boosting that growth will be the new fragrance, which is due to be joined by a
      male counterpart in the fall as the second half of a master brand. Both the
      women's and men's together could generate $140 million at retail, according to
      estimates, meaning that the new London master brand could account for 27
      percent of Burberry's fragrance business.
      Cacci noted that the new arrival was created to mirror the brand's Burberry
      London apparel line, a more youthful and commercial collection. Unlike Prorsum,
      the line is not shown on the Milan runways.

      "It's classic and modern with a spirit of elegance and glamour," she explained,
      adding the client for the Burberry London fragrance is likely to be a little
      older than the typical Burberry Brit wearer.
      "If Brit was the ‘It' girl, this one will draw a more sophisticated customer,"
      said Donald J. Loftus, president and chief executive officer of P&G Prestige
      Products Inc. In the U.S., P&G is the fragrance distributor for Burberry and
      Inter Parfum. He added that the London label is at the core of the Burberry
      fashion business. By clothing the bottle in plaid fabric, the intention was to
      refer to the company's roots in textiles.
      "It stands for a modern but classic British attitude," agreed Burberry creative
      director, Christopher Bailey, of the Burberry London line. "We really start
      every project in the same way. We go down to the DNA and the true values of the
      Burberry brand as it has an incredible history and culture."

      The latest addition to the label's portfolio is meant to epitomize the Burberry
      London style in a fragrance.
      "When we developed the idea for a fragrance, we wanted it to be in sync with
      the clothes, bags and the whole attitude around the collection," said Bailey.
      To underscore the product's link to apparel, Fabien Baron and Bailey came up
      with a rectangular heavy glass bottle that is covered with a swatch of Burberry
      check. In addition, the scent's outer packaging features the check pattern as
      well as a fabric label, like those found on Burberry London apparel. "It's like
      having a piece of the brand," said Nicholas Munafo, executive vice president of
      sales and marketing at P&G in New York.
      "Fashion and fragrance are separate worlds, but are really one world," said
      Cacci. "Linking the collection with fragrance was our way of merging those two
      worlds."
      To wit, Burberry London's advertising campaign is a stroll through that
      universe. Shot by Mario Testino, it features a collage of black-and-white
      photographs featuring Weisz in various London locations. She's pictured walking
      by the Thames with British actor Ioan Gruffudd, for example, and buying
      flowers. The ads also feature snaps of London's Big Ben, a palace guardsman and
      the London Eye Ferris wheel, with handwritten notes and a shot of the Burberry
      London bottle in color.
      "We wanted it to feel like someone's scrapbook," said Cacci. "We created a
      little love story."

      Weisz, who has starred in films including "The Constant Gardener," "The
      Mummy," "About a Boy" and "Stealing Beauty," was chosen not only for her
      stunning good looks, but also for her approachability, said Bailey.
      Weisz also appeared at a reception for U.S. beauty editors earlier this week.
      "She embodies the spirit of the London woman," said Cacci. "She's a real
      British beauty."
      Industry sources estimate Burberry Fragrances will spend more than $25 million
      promoting and advertising both the new women's and coming men's scents. The
      campaign will include single-, double- and triple-page ads, breaking at the
      launch and supported by a sampling drive, featuring vials and miniatures. A TV
      campaign also is planned for the fourth quarter.

      Burberry London's juice, concocted by Dominique Ropion of International Flavors
      & Fragrances, is an elegant floral. It features top notes of rose, clementine
      and honeysuckle. Heart notes include tiare flower, peony and jasmine, while
      base notes are sandalwood, veil of musk and patchouli.
      The eau de parfum will be available as 30-, 50- and 100-ml. sprays priced at 26
      pounds, or $32; 37 pounds, or $45, and 52 pounds, or $64, respectively, in the
      U.K. In the U.S., the 50-ml. size will retail for $56 and the 100-ml. version
      will be priced at $76.
      The line also includes Delicately Floral Shower Gel and Delicately Floral Body
      Lotion. Both products feature natural ingredients, such as royal jelly, English
      rose and tea extracts. Packaged in 150-ml. bottles, they will be priced at 22
      pounds, or $27, and 24 pounds, or $29.50, respectively.

      The new women's scent will bow in the U.K. and U.S. next month. The British
      launch will consist of an exclusive at Selfridge's. In the U.S., the first wave
      of distribution will include the 31 Burberry boutiques, Saks Fifth Avenue,
      Bloomingdale's, Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus for an initial total of 350
      doors. The second round, focusing on department stores, will hit April 1.
      Munafo said the total distribution will add up to 1,250 doors by the end of the
      spring.
      Plans are in the works, he added, to stage an in-store appearance by Weisz
      sometime during the spring season. P&G does not break out sales projections,
      but according to industry sources, P&G is shooting for $35 million in retail
      sales, or a top-five ranking, for the women's scent this year in the U.S.
      During an earlier interview in New York with Loftus and Munafo, Cacci pointed
      out that London answers an olfactory need. "We didn't have a big floral in the
      line," she said."
