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.
A truly gorgeous "sunshine in a bottle" scent, Olympéa Solar is a proper holiday scent that’s creamy, bright, and utterly delicious. It's a crowd-pleasing tropical floral with a sweet, luxurious vibe, perfect for making everyday feel like a sun-kissed getaway. Not for those who hate sweet scents, but if you love a gourmand-adjacent floral, this is pure joy.

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 warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and sweet-floral character make it a strong choice for casual outings and dates, particularly in warmer weather. While some find it suitable for work, its pronounced sweetness and strong sillage for some wearers might be too much for a conservative office environment, but it's not overpowering enough to rule it out entirely.
