Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hero Elixir de Parfum

Burberry Hero Elixir is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, primarily due to its divisive leather-vanilla drydown and absolutely bonkers price tag. If you can get past the cost, this potent elixir offers a unique, luxurious journey from smooth sweetness to a raw, smoky leather that's definitely not for everyone. You'll either get niche-level refinement or a "tire fire" - no in-between.

Our Verdict - Iceberg Twice Gold

This one's a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. Some reckon it's a solid, cheap leather-vanilla blend in the vein of Tom Ford, whilst others are convinced it's a cheap One Million knock-off. If you fancy a divisive, warm leather for a steal, give it a go.

Season and Occasion Fit

Hero Elixir de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

This fragrance is definitely too strong and potentially polarising for office wear, as noted by several reviewers. Its impressive longevity and projection make it ideal for dates and evening formal events where making a statement is desired. It's a bit much for casual daytime wear unless you aim to stand out.

Iceberg Twice Gold

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date

Also Works:

Casual

Its warm, leathery character and moderate projection make it a poor fit for the office or sports. This scent truly shines on a date or for casual evening wear, where its sensual, bold nature can be appreciated without being overwhelming.
