Perfume Parlour Overcoat For Women is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Overcoat For Women opens with Neroli, Lavender, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Petalia, Blackcurrant Leaf, Orange Blossom, and Orris, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, and Vetiver. Perfume Parlour's Overcoat For Women carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

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.

About

Overcoat opens fresh and slightly peppery, neroli and pink pepper sparkling over a quiet thread of lavender that underlines everything - a faithful nod to Brit Rhythm's clean, modern signature. The heart turns soft and powdery as orris and orange blossom take over, with petalia and a green blackcurrant-leaf facet keeping it crisp rather than heavy. The drydown is where the original's pure, second-skin feel lives, and Overcoat follows with woody notes, musk and a touch of vetiver. Compared with the genuine Burberry, this budget version flattens some of the iris-tonka fuzz that gives the original its cosy depth, leaning a little more linear and turning sweeter as it wears, and the longevity sits below the real thing's six-to-eight-hour span. Even so, it keeps that refined, freshly-laundered floral-musk personality that makes Brit Rhythm such an easy daily wear, comfortable across spring and summer and into milder autumn days.
