About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Burberry Hero (2021) is a woody spicy masculine composition by Aurélien Guichard. The pyramid opens without declared top notes, moving directly to a heart of juniper and black pepper. The base is an unusual trio of Atlas, Virginian, and Himalayan cedars, creating a dense, multi-faceted woodiness. Main accords are woody (100%), fresh spicy (95%), aromatic (80%), citrus (62%), and powdery (42%). This is a modern cedar-forward scent, not a vintage powerhouse. It suits collectors who appreciate clean, sharp woods with a peppery bite. Ideal for daily wear, office, or casual evenings. The powder facet softens the dry cedar, making it approachable. For those seeking a contemporary alternative to classic woody masculines, Hero offers a focused, linear experience. The absence of listed top notes means the pepper and juniper appear quickly, leading to a sustained cedar drydown. It is a solid addition for fans of Guichard's work or cedar-dominant compositions.
