The review

Burberry Hero scores 6.4 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Burberry Hero.

Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Burberry Hero's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $23 it costs 76% less than Burberry Hero.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Palermo Perfumes publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

Burberry Hero is bergamot, black pepper and pink pepper at first, cedar absolute and cedar essence at its heart and cedar wood, benzoin and vetiver at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • bergamot
  • black pepper
  • pink pepper

Heart

  • cedar absolute
  • cedar essence

Base

  • cedar wood
  • benzoin
  • vetiver
Peppery bergamot crashing into a wall of cedar; simple, confident and unmistakably one note.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
