Acqua di Parma Gelsomino Nobile... Love it but looking for an alternative?

I love it but it just doesn't have enough 'oomph' for me. I'm about to buy another bottle but it is expensive and I'm not entirely sure I want to commit to it again!

I like alternative florals with a bit of a twist, for example I was mad about Tresor (and I don't normally go for very popular commercial scents as I like to feel that I'm buying something different) as it has a very soft powdery top not but quite a warm, ambery, woody dry down.

I love cedar, sandalwood, amber, vanilla but I also love florals. Tresor seems to tick the box for me but I'm bored of it. A di Parma is amazing but just doesn't have enough complexity.

Any suggestions? Smile

Have you tried Light Blue by D&G?

Also La Petite Robe Noire - Guerlain.

Viktor & Rolf Flower Bomb?

Thanks guys!

I've 'done' Light Blue and it is indeed lovely however I prefer something with a warmer depth and 'floraly' notes.

Flowerbomb is just too, er floral for me! I'm not a big fan of overly sweet scents. Thanks anyway 3mum

I haven't tried La Petit Robe - thank you. I used to love Samsara!
