Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Larmes du Désert
This one's a divisive one, blending traditional incense and woods with a rather unexpected sweetness. While some rave about its golden, spiritual qualities, others are left scratching their heads, finding it too sweet or strangely fruity. Definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - BBerry Hero
Burberry Hero arrived in 2021 as the brand's modern-masculine reset - pine and frankincense over a three-cedar base, a deliberate move away from the classic check-pattern romanticism into outdoorsy woody territory. EV's No. 74 holds the pine-and-cedar spine but reads sweeter on benzoin than the genuine bottle's drier polish.

Season and Occasion Fit

Larmes du Désert

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate projection and deep, resinous nature make it generally unsuitable for the office, though some find it office-safe given a lighter hand. It shines on dates and formal occasions where its warm, sophisticated character can truly impress, particularly in cooler months. Not suited for casual daywear or sport due to its density.

BBerry Hero

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Pine-and-cedar woody compositions sit best in autumn and cooler weather; the budget interpretation's sweeter benzoin profile pulls slightly cooler-friendly than the original's drier reading.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Sport

Office and weekend-casual the natural homes - this is the everyday-versatile woody-aromatic profile that suits most daytime settings; date and formal-evening work at higher dosage.
