Which Should You Buy?
This is a real marmite scent - you'll either adore its warm, golden embrace or find it a bit too much. Sublime is a truly classic, sophisticated floral that demands attention, but be warned: reformulations divide opinion, so hunt for a vintage bottle if you want the full, unadulterated experience.
This one is a divisive beauty. While some find it to be a pure, elegant rose that's perfect for any occasion, others are put off by a synthetic, syrupy sweetness or even a 'cherry cough drop' vibe. Test before you buy, as skin chemistry plays a big role here.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Sublime's strong sillage and 'old money' feel make it less suitable for the office, where it might be too overpowering. It excels in formal and date settings, conveying elegance and sophistication, as many reviewers indicated it made them feel glamorous and well-dressed.
Seasons
A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.
Occasions
Its lighter projection and fresh, inoffensive rose profile make it a good choice for casual wear and even the office. However, some experience poor longevity, limiting its suitability for longer formal events unless reapplied. It's a popular choice for dates due to its delicate, romantic feel.
