I received this via their Facebook page and it smells delicious. The following is from Sephora's page on it:

Body
Wrapped around a woman, the iconic Burberry trench coat evokes sensuality, femininity, and luxury. In this fragrance, an eclectic composition of fruity-chypre notes envelopes the body, creating a suggestion of effortless seduction. The fragrance opens with a fresh, green touch of absinthe and bright hints of peach and freesia. Elegance emerges in the heart, where cool notes of natural rose absolute and iris are set against the subtlety and warmth of sandalwood. In the base, woody cashmeran and creamy vanilla join the sensuality of amber and musk.

Notes:
Freesia, Green Absinthe, Peach, Rose, Iris, Sandalwood, Cashmeran, Musk, Amber, Vanilla.
Style:
Fruity. Luxurious. Chypre.
Cost:

1.1 oz Eau de Parfum $55
2 oz Eau de Parfum $75
2.8 oz Eau de Parfum $95

My thoughts. As I said it smells delicious. I'm picky about my fragrances and was impressed by how nice this smells not only in the bottle but also on my skin. The size I got from Facebook is larger than the standard perfume samples you get (example, the perfume samples you get in Birchbox). I got a 4.5 ml (0.15 fl oz) bottle and it was the same shape of the bottle like the picture above. I do know they're still offering samples but they are no longer offering the large "deluxe" sample that I got.

Would I buy this? Yes, if I had the money. $95 on 2.8 oz is just a wee bit out of my month's allowance that I give myself to spend on cosmetics and related products. I wouldn't buy the 1.1 at $55 because 2.2 (two bottles of 1.1) is $110 and you're getting .6 oz less for $15 more.

Did anyone else get a free sample from them and if so what are your thoughts on it?

 
I also received the same larger sample in the mail from "liking" their page on Facebook and fell in love with Burberry Body.  I am running out of perfume and might consider putting some money on the side every month for the 2.8 oz $95 bottle.
