Carolina Herrera CH Sublime is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Olivier Cresp, Rosendo Mateu, and Elisabeth Vidal. CH Sublime opens with Passion Flower and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Rose and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Leather, Amber, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Carolina Herrera's CH Sublime carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

A modern chypre that aims for sophisticated femininity but delivers a divisive experience. Some adore its elegant blend of florals and patchouli, while others find it fleeting or, frankly, a bit dated. Best sampled first to see if it sings on your skin.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:

While some find it an office-safe 'career woman' scent, its noticeable floral and leather accords make it more suited for dates and formal events. Reports of moderate longevity and sillage mean it won't overpower, but it's too refined for casual or sporty wear.

About

Opens with a bright, unusual burst of passion flower and bergamot, leading into a heart of rich rose and exotic orchid. The dry down introduces a sophisticated blend of earthy patchouli, deep leather, and warm amber, all underpinned by a classic oakmoss base. It’s a complex floral-chypre with contrasting facets.
