Help me find this perfume!

I was in a restaurant this evening and something (someone?) smelt exactly like a perfume I had in the 2000s. It took me right back! I asked the waitress what the small was, hoping it was a diffuser or something but no. And it was too busy in there to go around sniffing women’s necks!

Anyway. It’s a floral scent but not that light - if lasts and you can smell from a decent distance. Not even sure what the scent is that I love so much. Possibly jasmine/ lily / freesia. And I can picture the bottle - square, painted with a black spray (maybe even a thin black ribbon around the neck). Sorry, such a rubbish description. Any ideas?

A few spring to mind but not sure how old they are to go back to early to mid 2000s.

I thought Narciso Rodriguez, too.

or Chanel Coco Noir? Although more fruity than floral.

From your bottle description, possibly Christina Aguilera? Although that was 2000's

Thanks for all the suggestions. Yes chat gpt is a good shout too, will try that. It’s not one of these, I feel like it was a sort of Marc Jacobs or Michael kors type brand but still no luck. Thank you!

Look on Vinted or eBay. I got a discontinued Tom Ford perfume as an unused tester for £50 instead of £220.
