McDonald's' strawberry sundae topping
Creamy. Jammy. Decadent. Like McDonalds' strawberry topping that they put on ice cream. Teeth-rottingly sweet, juicy, thick, and if you're lucky – even has some full strawberries in it. I'm not even into strawberries, but this is genuinely kind of impressive.

The sillage is moderate past the initial cloud. Almost as if it's too gooey and thick to travel too far from the skin. But once you get into wearer's personal space – it immediately envelops you and for a moment becomes the only thing that exists. Like closing your eyes as you bite into a buttered toast with strawberry jam. Overwhelming. Delightful.

As time goes on, strawberry becomes more mellow and lets you see more of the balsamic vanilla below. It's adorable. In about ~2 hours vanilla becomes the more prominent note, but it takes about ~4 hours in total for the jam to disappear entirely.

Sandalwood only becomes noticeable at the very end, but it's very mellow and never comes to the forefront. It's just there to hang out and add a wee bit more depth to the drydown. In ~5,5 hours it's all gone.

And I'm left conflicted. Like, yeah, the scent itself is fun, but I am not going to wear this. This is not my thing and it's also too much. I don't need it. I'm lukewarm about strawberries and I hate excessively sweet things.

(I wear it another time and decide to keep it).

Not Quite Milk, But Still a Creamy Dream!
Tested: skin and fabric over 8 hrs.

TLDR: Smooth, simple, and well-blended Strawberry Shortcake doll scent. Extremely short life span.

- First impression after a spray on each wrist: warmth! Not in a spiced way, but in depth. The berries in the opening are darker compared to the original Her, in a way that reminds me of the YSL Mon Paris line. Like a smooth and *sweet* wine, no dry bitterness here.

After about 10 minutes (so quick…), it turns into a strawberry musk. I often hear this scent being compared to a “strawberry milk/shake”, but I don’t pick up anything lactonic or particularly milky.

Actually, I directly compared Elixir to a strawberries & cream flavoured milk, and some strawberries and cream candy. While this scent is smoother than the tangy fruitiness of candy, it’s not nearly creamy enough to be reminiscent of anything dairy-based. It’s creamy in terms of *texture*.

Instead, Elixir reminds me very much of how they used to scent Strawberry Shortcake dolls. The soft plastic, hinted with artificial strawberry that gets dense in the hair, slightly faded over time. This must be why it mixes so well into skin; the original Her, in her bright and fruity glory, sits right on top. Elixir makes herself at home.

It makes me think of an artificial, idyllic childhood. I want to wrap myself in soft blankets, watch the 80’s Care Bears Movie, and eat vanilla pudding. It’s sweet and innocent without the baby powder note often used to achieve the feeling.

As I said, this fades way too quickly. By 8 hours, Elixir is a (barely) sandalwood ghost of its former self. I’m not sure it stuck to my clothing at all tbh. Additionally, I didn’t find it to project very well, as I had to bring my wrists to my nose to smell anything almost immediately after application.

I love this flanker. It’s quietly sweet, comforting, and very nostalgic. A more demure version of the original. If only it lasted long enough to enjoy. Would be excellent to layer any strawberry or milk-focused scents with!

Girl Next Door Couture
The girl that wears Burberry Her Exilixr may not be the main character…But she is definitely the girl that the main character has been obsessed with since the first grade. Burberry Her Elixir is strawberry shampoo, matching silky pink pajama sets, and silky smooth hair down to the waist, a 12 step skincare routine, a sweet smile and wave to a stranger. Burberry Her Elixir is bubblegum pop music, singing into a hairbrush, and sleepovers with feather-down pillow fights. She may not be unique, but she knows that there is nothing wrong with being like “other girls.” And for that reason among many, she is beautiful.

I regret buying this
Ive changed my mind on this fragrance a couple of times. I ended up buying it and thought it was pleasant enough to use as a grab and go perfume for work, however I find the scent really bland. I can barely smell it and, having worn it a few times now, it has a weird musky note in the background that I just don’t like. This isn’t powdery, which I wouldn’t have minded, it’s a dusty musky skin scent. I really have to dig my face into my wrist to smell anything, and that’s with spraying it a whole tonne! If I had gotten an 80’s strawberry shortcake smell I would have kept it for the nostalgic value, but I don’t get that either sadly, I also don’t get much berry. Maybe it’s my sense of smell. If anything I find this scent actually just irritates me now, to the point I will sell it cheap, give it way just to get rid of it. If my opinion changes or something changes with what I smell from this I’ll change my review, but for now I’ll stick to Meraki by Botanicae!

Plastic strawberry milkshake flavor
I'm starting to think my skin chemistry doesn't vibe well with the whole Burberry Her line. I had previously tried Burberry Her EdP which I had disliked because of the synthetic, almost plastic scent that emanated from my skin and this one isn't much better.

There's a tart, almost sour tinge to the strawberry and blackberries which I associated with plastic doll-like figurines that smelled of strawberries and fruits back in the day. It's synthetic, screechy and I'm just overall so turned off by it. As time goes by, the plastic accord fades a little bit and I finally gain acces to this semi-sweet strawberry milkshake people have been raving about. I'm not sure about the lactonic / creamy aspect of it since the plastic accord is still present and distracts me from the rest, but I can imagine it smells like strawberry milkshake on other peopl'e skin. Just wished it did the same on mine.

As you can see, I'm one of the minorities who dislikes this perfume, so the fault goes probably to my skin chemistry and the old memories I have of strawberry scented dolls I played with when I was young. Might be a nice feminine-leaning, gourmand perfume for most people, but to me, it's a perfume I'll be forgetting.

It has the same problem I have with the original... a strong synthetic smell, which sometimes seems a bit metallic?

Easy to forget you’re wearing until you get whiffs throughout the day. A sweet crowd pleaser. Could always use more strawberry imo

Creamy berries with an airy sweetness. Slightly synthetic + can quickly become cloying! Youthful and pretty if sprayed with a light hand.

A plastic strawberry doll-like scent that is a complete turn-off. I wish I could rave about it, but my skin chemistry & nose begs to differ.

Delicious strawberry milkshake. Right away it’s delicious and feminine in an “eat me” kind of way. Perfect for summer or Valentine’s Day.

Like eating strawberry ice cream with a metal spoon, but you keep biting the spoon. I added to my collection despite the metallic accord.
