Light perfume - ideas please!

[alpaca44]

I need help to find a perfume that is light and fresh. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I don’t like sweet, sickly or strong smelling perfumes. Also not keen on anything too floral.

I currently have Chanel Chance Eau Tendre but find it too intense. Many thanks in advance

I love Verveine by L’Occitane.
Lemony and light.

I love Chanel 19 - lighter than others. Agree that L’Occitane has some lovely light perfumes - and not too expensive. Same goes for White Company - I wear Day, with bergamot and jasmine, and Blanc.

Green Tea Elizabeth Arden

I still really rate CK One. It's light & fresh, does the job for all occasions!

I use Thè Vert by L’Occitane

Even though it is now 75ml rather than 100ml and the same price 😡

It is easy to wear so I just suck up the blatant rip off!

I really love Clarins Eau Dynamisante. I buy the 200ml refill bottle and decant it into a spray one as it doesn’t come with a spritzer bit on top.

Chanel chance seems lighter than the usual Chanel heavy type of scent. EA green tea is light, try d&g light blue, it's quite citrusy iirc. Current favourite of mine is Boss Ma Vie, lovely and light. Like you I can't stand anything too heavy or sickly, I prefer fresh and light scents. I even like a bit of jlo glow😁it's clean and soapy.

Ditto EA Green Tea, or try one of the White Tea varieties.

Dolce Vita by Christian Dior is light and gorgeous

I wear the L'Occitane Jasmine and Bergamot and to me it is just the most light and fresh, delightful smell! But as PPs have said they have some other lovely ones and reasonably priced too.

Acqua De Parma is one of my favourite fresh perfumes if I’m treating myself. Always makes me feel like I’m on holiday.

Day to day though I have a quick spritz of M&S fragrances. Balance is lovely, almost woody but light and I have another more feminine fragrance from there which is also nice but I can’t recall the name. They have a good range of perfumes to choose from

Guerlain Aqua Allrgoria range. Some are botanical. Acqua di Parma Blu Mediterraneo range. Lovely fresh fragrances.

Glow by J-Lo.

Thanks for all your suggestions! I’ll definitely be trying some of these!

Chanel - beige

So light and feminine. It's my favourite.

@alpaca44 Try the discounters for more competitive prices on the more expensive suggestions.

Diorella
Eau Dynamisante (Clarins)
Cristalle (Chanel)
For a cheaper(£25) spritz I love Zara’s colognes. They’re put together by Jo Malone. I have the vetiver pamplemousse and captivating memories energy vibes. Both great and refreshing in summer.

4711 cologne.
Gucci Aqua Allegoria Limon Verde.
L'Artisan Parfumeur L'Ete en Douce.
Gucci Bamboo.
La Perla Signature.

Sorry, got mixed up there - the Aqua Allegoria range is by Guerlain, not Gucci. 😏😊

Seconding 4711, lovely light cologne and cheapy cheap!

Givenchy Eau de Givenchy in their Les Classiques range. Very light and summery, it always lifts my spirits immediately.
Not cheap. 😕

Seconding diorella and Cristalle!

I’d suggest any of the 3 Clarins Eau de toilette perfumes. Lovely summer fragrances

Valentino - Born in Roma Yellow 👌🏼
