SOTD: Hero by Burberry 27/05/2025

Thought I was clever buying the 50ml bottle here. Yes I think I may have messed up. This juice is banging. Not a great Summer frag, although it could work on a night out. Its a woody/spicey scent with some amber & balsamic vibes.Crafted by perfumer Aurélien Guichard & released in 2022. Its alot better than the edt, its richer & darker I can see myself running out of this very quickly.

It opens with a vibrant, aromatic note of Pine Needles, which provides a fresh/Green forest type of of vibe. At the heart Benzoin & Incense take over. The Benzoin adds a resinous, warm & sweet quality, while incense introduces a rich, smoky, and deeply seductive facet that takes it to the next level.The base retains that Hero dna with that Cedarwood trilogy of Atlas, Himalayan & Virginia Cedar that Hero is best known for. And it's this blend that provides a deep, warm, earthy & long-lasting woody drydown.

So much better than the original, this one I think could earn a well earned spot on my top 10 list after a few more wears. Performance on this is really good. Im excited now to try the parfum flanker.

My Rating 9/10
