I have the oil from a competitor and found it a bit too spicy for my liking. The version I bought from The Fragrance Shop is is more even in and pleasant to my nose. I haven't gotten the chance to smell the original but I was never looking for an "exact" dupe to begin with so it's no problem.
I don't agree with the Frag community that this is a scent just worn for the holidays. Rock it whenever you want.

This scent is amazing! The Fragrance Shop interpretation is spot on to the original but the oil base adds a very nice depth to the original scent.
This is my go-to daily fragrance and now I have it in an oil base that ensures my smelling fantastic all day long. And I also get quite a few compliments every time I wear it.

This smells exactly like the original, without that alcohol smell you get with department store fragrances. Great Job!

I know what I like and I definitely like Burberry London cologne- this fragrance oil version is my pick, a favorite pick. It stands out in a very fresh and alluring way, a very masculine way, and, I like that, and, i get very nice compliments from some very nice ladies when I wear it.
I find this fragrance is never overpowering, never toooooo much, as some are. It isn't subtle either, it seems to be just right for me. I have decided to buy the body spritz as a compliment to the fragrance oil and I definitely will purchase this fragrance oil again.
I would readily recommend this fragrance to any young man from 25 to 65+ years of age- a very impressive fragrance!

I use this as my scent anytime the temperature is below 75. The spritz is an excellent refresher to just bring that scent back to life throughout the day. Classy and sophisticated, I hear nothing but compliments on this scent. I will definitely be purchasing it again.
