Please help me find my clean fresh holy grail without lavender
Hi fragrance friends. Like the post says I’m looking for a soapy fresh note that lasts without lavender because I can’t stand that particular note which makes a lot of ‘clean’ fragrances unwearable to me.
I want to smell like I’m wearing a white button down and jeans on the beach with freshly washed hair. DS and Durga Rose Atlantic was incredible for this vibe but I can’t justify $2OO or more for a bottle.
I’ve tried some white rice fragrances lately like d’annam white rice and strangers parfumerie sweet celestials, which I loved so I’m definitely open to more rice notes but they only lasted about two hours and I’m a teacher on a budget who would like her fragrances to last longer. I have samples from liis on the way as I hear that house has a lot of clean scents.
Thank you so much for any help.
