Touch For Men

Touch for Men by Burberry (2000)

Released in 2000 and crafted by perfumer Jean-Pierre Bethouart (the nose behind Burberry Classic and Jacques Bogart One Man Show), Burberry Touch for Men is one of the brand’s most enduring masculine compositions. Built around violet leaf, mandarin, white pepper, artemisia, nutmeg, cedarwood, vetiver, tonka bean, and musk, this aromatic-woody composition became a signature masculine fragrance for a generation. Twenty-five years after release, Touch for Men remains widely available and is actively sold at Walmart, Macy’s, and major retailers.

Our interpretation captures the same iconic masculine signature as a long-lasting Eau de Parfum, made in the EU.

How It Smells

The opening is immediately distinctive with violet leaves, mandarin, and a spicy lift from white pepper that creates a sophisticated aromatic introduction. There is no shy citrus burst here. Touch announces itself with confidence from the first spray.

The heart introduces warm nutmeg and artemisia, adding aromatic depth that bridges the bright opening with the warm dry-down. The dry-down settles on smooth cedarwood, refined vetiver, warm tonka bean, and clean musks. A base that lingers on skin for hours with refined, slightly powdery, deeply masculine depth.
