In plain words

The main accords of Hero Eau de Parfum are amber and woody. It opens with Pine Needles and Olibanum, reveals Benzoin and Incense at its heart, and dries down to Virginia Cedar and Atlas Cedar. It lasts long and projects moderately; people reach for it in autumn and winter, day or night.
