Fast food chain Burger King has released a body spray for men, called Flame.

The company has done its best to bottle the Whopper, claiming the fragrance "captures the essence of that (burger) love and gives it to you.

"Behold the scent of seduction, with a hint of flame-broiled meat."

A spokeswoman for the company's UK operations said the scent was not a gag - there was even a website, firemeetsdesire.com.

The tasty treat will not be available on this side of the pond, but it can be bought online for $3.99 (�2.58).

While there was no word on what vegetarians think about the fragrance, several customers could not be happier with their purchase.

Amanda Creek, from Virginia Beach in the US, wrote in a review of the product: "I received Flame in the mail two days ago. Yesterday I wore it to work for the first time.

"As a tattoo artist, our tip amounts vary greatly, but yesterday not one tip was less than $50!!!!! I know it had everything to do with wearing Flame - THANK YOU! "
