Launched in 2022 as a more intense, concentrated iteration of the beloved Burberry Her line, this Eau de Parfum Intense (often referred to simply as Elixir) represents a masterful study in contrasts: the brightness of sun-ripened berries against the warmth of vanilla and amber, all anchored by a creamy sandalwood base. It is a fragrance that speaks to the modern woman who seeks both comfort and sophistication in a single spritz.
