Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sublime
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.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Intrusion
Don't let the name Intrusion fool you - this is a clean, fresh floral that's delightfully non-intrusive. It's a consensus crowd-pleaser for those who adore bright, understated elegance, though some find it a bit too subtle for their taste.

Season and Occasion Fit

Occasions

Best For:

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.

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its light, fresh, and clean profile makes it highly suitable for everyday wear, including the office, without being distracting. As a delicate, fresh scent, it’s less ideal for formal events or a bold date night, but perfect for casual outings or even a post-gym refresh.
