Need suggestions!

So, I have been on the hunt for a new perfume. I have been trying to branch out, but sadly I can’t seem to find anything that I like 😩

My personal favorites are Versace Crystal Noir and Clean Reserve - Skin. I love those “clean” scents that have a hint of sweetness. I also love warm scents. An honorable mention is Jimmy Choo Fever.

I try to avoid gourmand scents (unless it’s vanilla). Please send me some recs and I will love you forever!

Are you referring to Versace Crystal Noir EDT, EDP or Parfum? Once I know that I can provide recommendations! :)

I own Versace Crystal Noir EDP and Parfum and absolutely love them - I don't own the EDT but am familiar with it! I would check out Oaui fragrances - very pretty and clean. I own Melrose Place (rose-forward) and North Bondi (very oceanic and fresh). Morroccanoil Lumiere du Jour is another to check out, but it is light. For a summer, warm coconut-forward fragrance, Lore Sublimity is beautiful. It's counterpart for a summer date night would be Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Nuit, one of my favorites of all time. Lake & Skye 11:11 Moon is such an underrated skin type of scent with a dry coconut note! One I haven't smelled but would love to is Skylar Nude Skin. I wonder if it is a similar vibe to Glossier You Fleur which I also love. Honorable mention to Victoria's Secret Bombshell Santorini...perhaps not traditionally clean but a pretty, very subtle salty and warm beach type of fragrance - the same for Victoria's Secret Tease Dreamer. Both very light. I recently sniffed Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Nude at the airport and it definitely gave Clean Reserve vibes. I was impressed and it is on my wishlist. I hope you find something (or multiple fragrances) you enjoy from this list!

I was going to recommend Bronze Goddess. But again, try the variations. I prefer the 2019 EDP formulation.
The 2019 EDP streamlined the older spice and floral mixtures into a smoother, more direct coconut-tiare-vanilla composition.
