White Forest Strawberry

To Buy or Not to Buy?

White Forest Strawberry is a solid value. It captures the essence of Burberry Her Elixir . If you crave the original's nuanced complexity and are willing to pay for it, stick with Burberry. But conscious, this does a commendable job. A great grab for teens or those on a fragrance budget.

The Scent Profile

White Forest Strawberry aims for Burberry Her Elixir, and gets...close. It's about 88% there. The opening bursts with a juicy strawberry, but it's noticeably more synthetic than Her Elixir's natural sweetness. The blackberry note adds a slightly tart edge. The jasmine heart emerges smoothly, but lacks the original's creamy depth. The drydown is where it deviates most. Vanilla and sandalwood are present, but an amber accord dominates, making it sweeter and slightly thicker than the more delicate drydown of the original. It's still pleasant, just less sophisticated.

The Performance Stats

Don't expect beast mode. White Forest Strawberry projects moderately for the first hour. After that, it settles closer to the skin. Longevity is decent; I get about 5-6 hours on my skin. Re-application is necessary for all-day wear. It's an office-friendly projection, but won't turn any heads in a crowded room.
