Ten Craves is our online series that rounds up all the best product launches and must-know fashion happenings week in, week out.

Riccardo Tisci presents his debut Burberry fragrance
Fancy yourself a bit of a horse girl? You will now. Riccardo Tisci presents his debut Burberry fragrance, fronted by acting wonder Adam Driver, who looks all hunky swimming in the sea with a stallion, before transforming into a centaur. Captured by director Jonathan Glazer, the campaign film is for Hero, Burberry’s brand new scent for men, which is a sublime mix of juniper, black pepper and cedarwood. “I wanted Burberry Hero to encapsulate modern masculinity, to play on the essence of primal human and animal instincts, channelling the duality between strength and sensitivity,” says Tisci. “I am so thrilled to have worked with the amazing Adam Driver to embody Burberry Hero for the house.” Shop the fragrance from August 2 online and in select Burberry boutiques.
