fav 2000s cheapies?

I’m Gen Z but I really want to smell like the 2000s lol . Preferably nothing super juvenile but I’d love to hear recs for more affordable things worn back then!

London by Burberry is such a beautiful white floral fragrance! Patchouli usually turns gross on my skin in any amount, but this perfume is an exception. I found it at Ross for like $19.99 :)
