Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rouge Velours EDP
This is a bold, velvety rose-patchouli that'll make you feel like 'that girl' - or 'that guy'. It's not a safe blind buy thanks to the prominent patchouli, but for those who love a deep, dark rose, it’s an absolute stunner and a solid example of the genre.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Overcoat For Women EDP
Overcoat chases Burberry Brit Rhythm For Women, capturing the clean lavender-and-pink-pepper opening over an iris-and-orange-blossom heart and a woody musk base. The dupe renders the iris fuzz simpler and the longevity shorter than the original, but the fresh, neat floral-musk character is intact.
