Burberry: Hero
Following the success of their top selling women's fragrance, Burberry Her, Burberry aimed to create a splash with their latest Eau de Parfum for men, Burberry Hero. As chief creative officer Riccardo Tisci’s first fragrance for the brand, Burberry desired a bold and disruptive campaign, which would leverage their strong brand image to raise awareness across untapped consumer white spaces.

Burberry provided campaign assets to our in-house creative team, who repurposed these into our rich media takeover and display formats, both featuring a call-to-action inviting users to shop now and purchase the fragrance.
