What Does My Way Smell Like?
My Way is a soft, feminine floral fragrance built around orange blossom, bergamot, tuberose, jasmine and white musk. It smells clean, elegant and easy to wear, which is why so many people use it as a daily signature scent.
It is not too heavy, too sweet or too sharp. Instead, it has that polished white floral style that works well for the office, daytime wear, weekends and evenings out. That also explains why so many brands have tried to create perfumes with a similar scent profile.
Best My Way Dupes Compared (based on reviews available online)

| Original (Designer) | Around £90 | The original | Good, usually around 6 to 8 hours |

| La Rive Her Choice | Around £11.99 | Budget option with a similar direction | Usually lighter, better for short wear (around 3-4 hours) |
| Blossom Perfumery No. 140 | £24.95, or less in a bundle | Very close, based on customer feedback |

Zara Sublime Époque is a good high street choice if you want something easy to pick up and affordable. Many people like it because it has a similar soft floral character, although feedback on longevity is mixed.
La Rive Her Choice is one of the cheapest options available. It may suit someone who wants a very low-cost fragrance, but if you are looking for stronger staying power, you may find it lighter than expected.
Blossom Perfumery No. 140 sits in the middle in terms of price, but performs strongly on value. It is made as an Eau de Parfum with 19% fragrance oil and is designed for people who want the My Way style scent without paying designer prices.
Introducing No. 140, Our My Way Inspired Perfume
No. 140 is our soft white floral fragrance inspired by the scent profile many people love in My Way. It opens with a clean, floral brightness, moves into a smooth jasmine and orange flower heart, and settles into a soft white musk base.
It is feminine, fresh and easy to wear. This is not a heavy evening-only perfume. It is the kind of scent you can wear to work, on a day out, to dinner or as your everyday signature fragrance.
Like every Blossom Perfumery fragrance, No. 140 is an Eau de Parfum with 19% fragrance oil. That gives it more strength than many lighter body sprays or Eau de Toilette style fragrances, which is one of the reasons customers often comment on how well it lasts.
Every Blossom Perfumery fragrance is also independently safety assessed and registered with the SCPN before sale. That means No. 140 is not just an affordable perfume alternative, it is also made with proper cosmetic safety standards in place.
Who Is No. 140 Best For?
No. 140 is a good choice if you like clean floral perfumes, white florals, orange blossom, jasmine and soft musky bases.
It is especially suited to anyone who likes the style of the original My Way but does not want to spend around £90 on a bottle. It is also a lovely option if you are new to perfume dupes and want to try a designer-inspired fragrance without committing to the designer price.
It works well for:
Everyday wear
Office wear
Spring and summer
Date nights
Gifting
Anyone who likes soft, feminine, floral scents

What Do Customers Say About No. 140?
No. 140 currently has strong customer feedback, with many customers saying it smells very close to the original scent profile and lasts well throughout the day.
Customers often mention that it is easy to wear, gets compliments and feels much more expensive than the price suggests. That makes it one of our most recommended options for anyone looking for a My Way-inspired perfume in the UK.
Which My Way Dupe Should You Buy?
If you want the original bottle, branding and full designer experience, the designer original is still the real thing.
If you want a high street option, Zara Sublime Époque is a popular choice and gives you a similar floral feel at a lower price.
If you want the cheapest possible option, La Rive Her Choice may be worth considering, especially if you only need something light for short wear.
But if you want the best balance of price, scent likeness, strength and value, Blossom Perfumery No. 140 is the strongest choice. At £24.95 for 100ml, it gives you a full-size Eau de Parfum style fragrance at a much lower price than the designer original.
It also becomes even better value when bought as part of our 3 x 100ml bundle, where the price per bottle drops further. That means you can try No. 140 alongside two other fragrances for less than the cost of one designer bottle.
If you would rather try it in a smaller size first, our sample bundle is a low-risk way to test the scent before committing to a full bottle.

Final Verdict: Which My Way Dupe Wins?
After comparing price, scent likeness, longevity and overall value, here is our honest ranking:
1. Blossom Perfumery No. 140 — Best Overall
Blossom Perfumery No. 140 takes the top spot because it offers the best balance of price, scent likeness and staying power. It gives you the soft floral character people love in My Way, with orange flower, jasmine and white musk, but at a much more affordable price.
At £24.95 for 100ml, or even less per bottle in a bundle, No. 140 is a strong choice if you want a My Way-inspired perfume that feels easy to wear, feminine and long-lasting without paying designer prices.
2. Zara Sublime Époque — Best High Street Option
Zara Sublime Époque is a popular high street alternative, and many people enjoy its similar floral feel. It is easy to buy and reasonably priced, although feedback on longevity is mixed, with some customers saying it needs reapplying during the day.
3. La Rive Her Choice — Best Budget Option
La Rive Her Choice is one of the cheapest My Way-style perfumes available. It may be a good choice if price is your main priority, but it is generally a lighter option and may not offer the same lasting power as a stronger Eau de Parfum style fragrance.
4. The Original — Best If You Want Designer Branding
The designer original is, of course, the real thing. If you want the original bottle, branding and full luxury experience, it is still the real thing. But if you are mainly looking for the scent style and everyday value, Blossom Perfumery No. 140 gives you a more affordable way to enjoy that same soft floral direction.
For most people looking for a My Way perfume dupe in the UK, Blossom Perfumery No. 140 is the best overall choice.
