High Tide unisex
Burberry's High Tide unisex is an aquatic fragrance built on a foundation of green and fresh accords with subtle woody and earthy undertones. The opening combines aldehydes and bergamot for a clean, slightly soapy lift before the heart emerges with hedione, jasmine, and a pronounced sea notes accord that gives the fragrance its characteristic marine character. Violet leaf adds a slightly green, herbaceous quality to the floral core, while oakmoss in the base provides earthy depth and prevents the composition from feeling too airy.
This is a straightforward aquatic with genuine seawater-like qualities, leaning cooler and more atmospheric than fruity or sweet. The hedione-jasmine pairing creates a soft floral spine, but the sea notes and violet leaf keep it from becoming traditionally pretty or perfumey. The overall effect is fresh and contemplative, more nuanced than typical mass-market aquatics.
High Tide works best as a warm-weather fragrance for someone seeking an aquatic with substance and green-tinged sophistication. It's suited to daily wear and performs equally well on men and women. If you're drawn to this style, explore The Tactician, The Aristocrat, and The Cipher.
