I’ve Received Daily Compliments Ever Since I Started Wearing This TikTok-Famous Perfume

1 week ago 5

If you're a perfume lover like me, then you probably know that TikTok is such a good way of finding new scents. Over on #perfumetok there are so many recommendations from people, and one type of video I love to watch is people talking about their most complimented fragrances. I mean let's face it, who doesn't like be told that they smell good? Although I wear perfume because it makes me feel good, it still makes my day when someone else asks me what scent I'm wearing.

Lately, I've been noticing one perfume in particular popping up in everyone's videos. Yep, I'm talking about Burberry Her. You could say that this fragrance is somewhat TikTok-viral, with lots of creators claiming it's one of their most complimented scents in their entire perfume collection. In fact, so many creators have said this that I decided that I had to get my hands on the fragrance to see what all the hype is about. Keep on scrolling for my very honest review...

Burberry Her Perfume Review

The Notes

I always like to talk about the notes first because all we really want to know is what this perfume smells like. This is definitely a gourmand fragrance, and if you don't like sweet scents, then this won't be for you. I personally love sweet perfumes, and after one spritz I already knew that this scent was right up my street.

At first, you are hit with ripe, jucy notes of crushed red berries which give this perfume a deliciously uplifting aroma. However, soon are you met with more sophisticated florals such as jasmine and violet, which add a soft, romantic edge. Finally, a base of amber and musk add this smooth, sensual creaminess which makes this scent so addictive.

I thought the berries might give this perfume a slightly younger vibe, but the base notes elevate the sweetness to create this seductive aroma, and I can see why so many people get complimented on this scent.

The Longevity

Now, onto the longevity. When you're spending over £100 on a perfume, you want to make sure it lasts. Although this is a sweet scent, it does have impressive lasting powers, and when wearing it I noticed that it lingered on both my skin and clothes. That being said, by the end of the day it's definitely not as strong as it is on first spritz, and I have found myself having to top this up before heading out in the evening. If you do want something a little stronger, I recommend trying Burberry Her Elixir, a richer version of the original fragrance.

The Packaging

This perfume comes housed in a baby pink bottle with the Burberry logo front and centre. I actually think this pale pink hue represents the fragrance perfectly, and there's no denying that the bottle will look good on any dressing table.

The slim shape also makes it a little easier to pop into your handbag, and you can also purchase 30ml and 50ml bottles that will be a lot lighter to carry around.

The Verdict

So, is this perfume worth the hype? In one word, yes. Since testing it out myself I've received so many compliments. Even my boyfriend said he loved it and he never usually comments on my fragrances. As mentioned above, this is an incredibly sweet scent, so if you don't like gourmand perfumes then this won't be for you. but I believe it's the sugary sweet notes that make this fragrance so captivating. I assumed that I would only reach for this in the daytime, but thanks to sensual amber and musk it also makes for a great date-night scent.

It's definitely not a cheap perfume, with a 100ml bottle setting you back £130, however it is quite strong so you don't need to use a lot. One thing that slightly let me down was the longevity (I would prefer to not have to top it up in the evening) but it's probably the only thing I could fault. Apart from that, I have to give it to TikTok—this really does bring in the compliments.

Pros: Smells delicious, looks beautiful and everyone will be asking you what perfume you're wearing

Cons: Quite expensive and doesn't last all day and night
