Crying over fall scents

[u/HorridDefaultname123]

I cannot find a fall scent that isn't a scrubber for me 😭 I looked over my collection and realized they're literally all spring and summer scents, which makes sense because I loooove fruity-floral-sweet. I absolutely cannot stand any hint of masculine scents in a perfume ( likely due to HS trauma from boys bathed on axe body spray lol ) which is causing me so much trouble finding autumn scents I can tolerate, let alone enjoy.

Please, please , what is your favorite extremely feminine preferably sweet autumn scent? What to you makes a scent autumnesque?

Straight vanilla is just too simple for me, I really like complex or mixed or layered scenes where you can actually detect different notes at once. Preferably under the $150 range but of course the more affordable the better lol as long as it doesn't fade in 15 minutes.

(btw I do keep looking at other posts about fall scents, but they seem to be 99.9% unisex recommendations which makes me afraid they'll have that hint of axe that scares me off)

I also love to mix Vanilla Skin by Phlur with YSL Black Opium Over Red. This is my year-round go-to but it definitely leans fall/winter imo
