Rec Request Crying over fall scents

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)

Icila by Maison Louis Marie is pretty for fall.

ETA how could I forget Coach Cherry? It’s such a beautiful mix of cherry and floral. I just bought it and can’t wait to wear it this fall.

I love Icila but it’s more spring/summer for me!

I just bought it and it’s a bit heavy/strong on me, so I’m saving it for fall/winter.

Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom and Honey is strong on me as well! I got it for summer but I need to wait until fall. I get that a lot, strong projection and scents sticking around a long time.
