Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sofia Eau de Parfum

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Byredo Gypsy Water (2008) - bergamot, incense and amber translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Our Verdict - BBerry Hero Eau de Parfum

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.
