Burberry presents Hero Elixir de Parfum, the next chapter in the Burberry Hero fragrance collection and a deeper exploration of the dualities within a man: power and sensitivity, vulnerability and strength, a quieter courage defined by self-awareness rather than display. Grounded, complex and real.
Created by renowned perfumer Aurélien Guichard, Hero Elixir builds on the original Hero signature with a richer, more intense scent – a rediscovery, as Guichard describes it – and a return to Hero’s iconic trio of cedarwoods, now with a darker, more sensual side.
Revisiting Hero and its amber, smoky notes, Guichard enhances the woody character of the original with a blackened leather accord that deepens the amber further. Full of contrast and depth, Hero Elixir is a study in duality: warm, sensual and quietly powerful.
The fragrance opens with tonka and vanilla for a soft, resinous warmth, while leather and the trio of cedarwoods anchor the scent with strength. The result is a sensual fragrance with a quiet, lasting intensity.

THE DESIGN
The bottle, in a luxurious dark-to-amber gradient glass, reinterprets the original Hero silhouette with a matte and glossy finish, a reflection of the duality at the heart of the fragrance. The cap bears the Burberry Knight, an emblem of courage and discovery.
