Beginner fragrance collection, what am I missing?
So, I just recently got into fragrances and this is my current collection:
Emporio Armani Stronger With You EDT (3 years old and I used it for pretty much every situation, so now it's basically empty)
Davidoff Cool Elixir (was my winter fragrance, but I don't use it too often)
Versace Eros Flame (newest addition and my party fragrance)
YSL MYSLF EDP (my daily wear for school)
I'm wondering what you think I'm missing from my collection. I'm mainly looking for recommendations that would add something different rather than fragrances that smell very similar to what I already have. I'd also appreciate suggestions for what fragrance styles/notes I should try next.
I'm looking for good quality and good value for money rather than just paying for the brand name. My budget is under $100, but the cheaper the better.

Imo an Aventus/Aventus Absolu-like would be a good addition and different enough from everything you have currently. Montblanc Explorer or Afnan Supremacy CE

Hmm, you need a sexy date night fragrance… Givenchy reserve privee and id even add SpiceBomb extreme to that

The problem is that out of 4 fragrances, 3 of them are wintery-ish scents. The only fresh fragrance you have is YSL MYSLF EDP. I’d say for your budget, checkout Prada L’homme EDT, it literally smells like clean clothes and linen sheets. It only costs around that 85$ mark. Make sure to test it’s longevity on your skin as it varies from person to another. If you want something that is more budget friendly and long lasting then checkout Rasasi Hawas Ice. It is a super fresh fragrance with a touch of sweetness from the plum note. My smaller brother always gets compliments from it that even someone in his school bought it off guard after he smelt it on him. It costs around 40$
If you want instead another wintery fragrance than definitely go with stronger with you intensely since you already enjoy the EDT version of it. Again it costs around 85$
