03 / The scent

Two different ways to wear Burberry.

London combines cinnamon with lavender and bergamot, followed by mimosa, leather, tobacco leaf and oakmoss. Weekend’s official description starts with lemon, grapefruit and tangerine, then moves through ivy, oakmoss and sandalwood to honey, amber and musk. The distinction is useful when deciding whether your next bottle should bring warmth or freshness.

London would be our first sample for evenings, a meal out or a cool day when a warmer fragrance is the mood you want. It is worth considering if your shelf already covers fresh everyday wear and you want another option for different plans.

The tradeoff Consider how often you want to wear tobacco and leather. If you usually reach for bright, fresh fragrances regardless of the occasion, try Weekend alongside London before buying. Choosing a different mood only helps when you enjoy wearing it.

Weekend would be our starting point for someone looking for a citrus fragrance to wear during ordinary daytime plans. Consider it for a casual lunch, a trip away or the days when you want something that fits easily into your existing routine.

The tradeoff Give the later scent as much attention as the citrus opening. The name does not limit when you can wear it, but you may prefer London if your next purchase is meant to cover a warmer evening mood.

04 / In your rotation

Where will you wear it?

Use these as starting points. Your preferences and application matter most.

01

A relaxed day out

Start with Weekend

Weekend would get our first sample for a citrus-led fragrance to wear with casual daytime plans. Try it on an ordinary day and decide whether it is something you would reach for often.

02

Dinner on a cool evening

Start with London

London would be our starting point when you want a warmer scent for a meal out or an evening with friends. Choose the direction you enjoy throughout the evening, beyond the first spray.

03

One bottle for a trip

Choose for your main plans

We would begin with Weekend for a trip built around warm days and casual outings. Try London first if cool evenings and dinners are the priority. Either can travel with you when its scent is the one you prefer.

04

A second fragrance for variety

Fill the gap in your rotation

Sample London if most of your bottles already cover fresh daytime wear. Try Weekend if warmer fragrances dominate your shelf. Buying both makes sense when you enjoy the choice between them.

A note on performance

Which one fits the way you wear fragrance?

Both are Eau de Toilette, but that shared label does not establish matching longevity or projection. Compare similar applications on separate days and check the scent at the times that matter to your routine. Notice whether you enjoy the later stages and want to reapply. A fragrance that fits your habits is more useful than choosing by designation alone.

05 / Make it yours

Found your signature?

Buy Burberry London if warm spice and tobacco would make a useful addition to your rotation. Buy Weekend for Men if you want a brighter citrus direction for everyday plans. Both featured bottles are standard 100 ml EDTs; compare the final offers and shop the one that suits your taste.

06 / The finer details

Still deciding?

Should I buy Burberry London or Weekend?

We would start with London for a warm, spicy preference and Weekend for a brighter citrus preference. Think about the plans you want your next bottle to cover, then sample the direction that sounds more useful.

Are London and Weekend the same fragrance?

No. They are separate Burberry fragrances. Both featured versions are men’s Eau de Toilette sprays, with different compositions and scent directions.

Which would you choose for warmer weather?

Weekend would be our first sample for someone who prefers a fresh citrus direction on warmer days. Personal preference still matters, and neither fragrance needs to be confined to a fixed season.

Which lasts longer, London or Weekend?

The shared EDT designation does not establish a longevity winner. Try similar applications on your own skin during a typical day and compare how each develops, including whether you want to reapply.

Are these the same as London EDP and Weekend EDP?

No. This guide features London for Men EDT and Weekend for Men EDT. The London and Weekend Eau de Parfum fragrances marketed for women are separate products. Match the full name and designation when shopping.

Which bottles do the FragranceNet buttons feature?

Both links feature standard 100 ml / 3.3 oz Eau de Toilette sprays, listed by FragranceNet as New Packaging. Travel sprays, other sizes and London’s tester are separate options. Confirm the selected fragrance, size and condition before ordering.
