Sublime Epoque

First Impressions & Dry Down

Sublime Epoque opens with a burst of sweet orange blossom, a little more candied than the airy elegance of My Way. The bergamot adds a citrusy zing, but it’s fleeting. The heart is where it mirrors the original most closely: a creamy tuberose and jasmine duo. Zara captures about 83% of that initial floral radiance, but a synthetic edge peeks through, a reminder of the price point. The drydown brings a soft vanilla and musk, comforting and familiar. The cedar is subtle, adding a whisper of woody depth, unlike My Way's brighter, more sparkling character.

Projection Power

It's a skin scent within 3-4 hours. Initial projection is moderate for the first hour, creating a gentle aura. Don’t expect all-day wear. You'll get about 5 hours total, which isn't bad but reapplication is needed to maintain the initial impact.

Final Thoughts

Sublime Epoque is for the woman who wants a taste of My Way's glamorous floral vibe without the designer price tag. It's a solid dupe for everyday wear. A great choice for someone who enjoys a sweet, floral fragrance, but wants to be more budget-conscious.
