Perfume recommendations

I’m on the lookout for a new perfume and looking for recommendations. I’ve tried lots but I tend to be drawn to fairly sweet perfumes that end up smelling sickly on me very quickly.

My most recent purchase was J’adore which is too sweet. I have had, and loved, Lady Million and Allure in the past.

I don’t like fresh or fruity perfumes.

Thanks in advance!

I am loving fame by rabanne. I sprayed it on as a joke in a shop because it comes in a little robot bottle but I loved it so got the dupe from essence vault.

Recently discovered Wood sage and Sea salt by JM but you need to spray on your clothes not skin to make it last.

You can use find a fragrance on the Perfume Society website and it will come up with some recommendations.

I put in Paco Rabanne Lady Million and Chanel Allure edt and it came up with a few suggestions (easier to search by brand name than perfume name, but both will work)

Great suggestions thanks! Haven’t tried any of them so will work my way through them. I got some more suggestions from the perfume society website too, mostly brands which are new to me.

I tried a Narciso Rodriguez perfume today that was lovely- just didn’t feel like the smell lasted long though.
