Fragrance Notes
Her
Burberry Her Eau de Parfum is one of the most immediately likeable fruited florals of recent years, and the reason is no mystery: the fruit does almost all of its work in the first thirty seconds.
The fruit is what people remember. Strawberry is the loudest of it, ripe and jammy and frankly sweet, with blackcurrant giving a darker, tarter counterweight and pear adding a cool watery juiciness in between. Pink pepper is scattered over the top, dry and faintly rosy, and it is the detail that keeps the fruit from reading as a smoothie.
Underneath that there is a proper bouquet, which is why the scent holds up longer than the fruit alone would allow. Peony is clean and airy, lily of the valley is green and almost soapy, honeysuckle brings a honeyed nectar sweetness, and rose sits in the middle of them lending a little formality. The flowers are not loud individually but together they give the composition a shape.
The finish is deliberately simple. Musk softens and extends everything above it, warm and slightly laundered, and cedarwood provides the only dry edge in the whole scent, a pale splintery wood that stops the sweetness from going on forever. Francis Kurkdjian composed it and it dates from 2018.
At eau de parfum strength it projects well for the first hour and then stays close for many more, and most wearers get a full day from two sprays. It is comfortable in cold weather and in air conditioning, less so in real heat, and it reads young, cheerful and feminine. Burberry started in 1856 and its standing rests on outerwear and on the trench. Fragrance has never been made inside the company, only by licence, which Coty has held since 2017.
