These days, the famous Burberry check is seen in more places than ever, and more people have discovered this classic brand thanks to it being more accessible. However, just because Burberry has become the favourite designer brand of youth around the world, it does not mean that it has become any less important and less sought after by those who have traditionally seen the value of the Burberry brand.

Burberry offers its customers access to an entire lifestyle though its range of stunning products. From fragrances for men and women, through clothing and luxurious leather accessories, Burberry provides a comprehensive range of premium items that are designed to be worn and enjoyed as well as simply looked at and appreciated for their quality.

Since the label was founded by Thomas Burberry in London back in 1856 as an outfitter for the upper classes, the Burberry name has been synonymous with the upper reaches of English society, and has traded on this upper class appeal for many years. Although it has become a more fashionable label than ever over the past decade since the brand was opened up to the masses.

The single most identifiable signature of Burberry is the check or tartan that has been applied to all of its products. From scarves through to the perfume bottles, the check has come to be the de facto symbol of the brand, more recognisable than the name itself even.

The check, which is protected as a trademark by Burberry, was first added to the products of the company as a distinctive lining in their classic trench coat lines in the early 20th century. Although it is often imitated by other brands eager to tap into the brand values espoused by Burberry, which make it so desirable to the customers, it is so distinctive, that such attempts at flattery fail.

Over the past couple of years, the most important items in the Burberry line up have included a number of fragrances including the best selling Burberry Touch perfume, which is available for both men and women.

As Burberry passes its hundred and fiftieth anniversary, the label is rising to new heights for its products, and is still just as relevant and fashionable as it always has been, and yet retains the classic quality that ensures that the items that it produces are practically timeless, and built to last.
