Burberry has unveiled a campaign for its latest fragrance My Burberry Black starring actress Lily James in her first global advertising campaign.

The 27-year-old was photographed by Mario Testino under the creative direction of Burberry's Chief Creative and CEO Christopher Bailey.

James also features in a short video advert to the soundtrack of singer Duffy’s I Put A Spell On You (see below).

The fragrance is a flanker of Burberry's original My Burberry scent and is said to bottle the "sensual elements of a black Burberry trench coat against bare skin".

Notes includes jasmine flower, candied rose and peach nectar and amber patchouli.
