## Essence
My Burberry Blush is the 2017 bright daytime flanker in the My Burberry line, composed by Francis Kurkdjian. It turns the line's rainy London-garden idea toward morning light: pomegranate, lemon, green apple and rose, with a clean jasmine-wisteria base.

## Scent Profile
The opening is fizzy and pink: glazed pomegranate with lemon brightness, sweet-tart rather than syrupy. Some wearers find that first bite sharp or sneeze-inducing, but the intended effect is sparkling fruit.

The heart is the most recognizable phase. Green apple gives crispness and a slight bitter-skin edge, while rose petal and geranium turn it into a clean fruity floral. The rose is soft and fresh, not jammy or dark.

The drydown is light, powdery and shower-clean, with jasmine and wisteria more as a pale floral wash than as heavy white flowers. A sweet woody-musky Kurkdjian base is detectable to some noses, but Blush remains airy, linear and youthful.

## Performance
Expect average designer performance: roughly a workday half-span on many skins, moderate projection early, then a closer fruity-rose trace. Some wearers find the sillage stronger than expected, while others find it thin for an EDP. Skin chemistry matters, especially around the sharp green-apple opening.

## Wearing Context
Blush is built for spring and summer daytime wear: office, casual plans, bridal-party polish and easy daily use. It reads youthful, feminine, clean and unpretentious. It is less suited to cold weather, evening drama or anyone wanting depth beyond pretty fruit and rose.

## Comparisons & DNA
Compared with the original My Burberry, Blush is cleaner, sharper and more apple-driven; the original is warmer and richer. Compared with My Burberry Black, Blush is the morning garden to Black's syrupy evening rose.

Burberry Her Blossom is a useful house-adjacent reference for the light pink-floral mood, though Blush is greener and more pomegranate-apple centered. Some wearers detect a Baccarat Rouge 540-like woody sweetness in the base because of Kurkdjian's hand, but Blush is fundamentally a green fruity floral, not an amberwood scent.

## Reception
Reception is positive but not unanimous. Praise centers on its bright, happy, polished character and its usefulness as an easy first serious perfume or gift. The beauty blog theNotice is a notable admirer, calling it a favorite Burberry flanker despite a normally more selective taste.

Criticism focuses on generic prettiness, the sharp green apple, and a feeling that the EDP lacks enough depth or strength for the price. The main split is whether its accessible people-pleaser quality feels charming or too basic.

## Versions & Reformulation
My Burberry Blush is an EDP launched in late summer 2017, part of the My Burberry family that includes the original EDP, EDT, Black and Blush. No major reformulation is documented. Some wearers report that Blush has become harder to find or more discounted, suggesting a quieter current market status rather than a confirmed formula change.

## Acquisition Notes
Blush sits in the designer tier and launched in 30, 50 and 90 ml sizes plus a rollerball. Because it appears less prominent than the main pillars now, availability may vary by market. Sample first if green apple is risky for you, and buy from reputable sellers rather than relying on undocumented batch tricks.
