Overcoat For Women

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.
