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

New Clarins one eau extraordinaire is lovely and fresh

Dolce & Gabanna Light Blue is really light & fresh, never too expensive either.

I'Occitane have brought back their Green Tea and The Jasmine and bergamot one.

And M&S sell the Fragonard Orange Blossom.

L'Ete en Douce is long gone.

Oh, damn! In that case, sorry for the useless suggestion. I've still got half a bottle left. Better make it last, I guess.

Lucky you.

it was lovely.

Blasts from the past: o de lancome and Estee's White Linen. More contemporaneously, I like Gucci Bloom.

Thank you all!

A Girl in Capri by Lanvin is lovely… light and fresh

Noa by Cacharel fits the description and is only about £20 in Superdrug.

I was coming to recommend this one. It is lovely, fresh and not at all cloying.

Will try noa, good price

I love Jo Malone's Earl Grey and Cucumber and Lime BAsil And Mandarin.

Fresh, light and have a sharpness to them

Chanel christalle? I live it in the summer

Thanks! Yes, it is, isn't it - all Linden Blossom and fresh laundry smelling. Such a shame they've discontinued it.

Creed love in white

Agree with this, but they are pricey. Nerolia vetiver is very nice.

Zara have some nice ones created by Jo Malone, most of which are quite light. I'm wearing Elegantly Tokyo at the moment, light inoffensive, but no one's going to stop and ask me what I'm wearing. Not a wrist sniffer, so I won't repurchase.

I heartily disagree with Chanel Cristalle. I have the EDP and it's a very strong smell.

The problem with going “light” will be longevity. Lighter ones really can disappear very quickly so you use them
up,

Yes I really wish my perfumes would last but as you say, their nature is light so it doesn’t go that way. Heavy, cloying perfumes last days!!!

I like Chanel Cristalle but subtle it aint. Not really a summer fragrance at all, IMO.
