Citrusy Lavender fragrance?
Hey y’all, I know almost nothing about fragrances but I do like how citrus and lavender smell a lot! Do y’all have any recs on fragrances that are mostly lavender with some citrus in there? I’d mostly want to avoid anything sweet or like, reminiscent of Poo Pourri if possible.
Budget would be uhhh up to $200 maybe, I’d be down to consider anything though!

chanel platinum egoiste is a good easy to like fragrance with lavender notes
no citrus in there, but its a fougere so its still "fresh"
pour un homme de caron is very known for lavender but its more vanilla/powdery
theres some bergamot/lemon in the top notes there according to fragrantica but i dont remember thsoe
if you are ok with smelling slightly older, i really like Guerlain and I think Jicky sort of fits as well. Habit rouge is one of my favorites but its more citrus + rose/carnation rather than lavender
other popular citrus, but no lavender, are Terre dHermes, Eau Sauvage (not to be confused with Sauvage), and of course Creed Aventus
all of those are fairly mainstream so should be easy to find in sephora/other department stores
Oh very nice thanks
I’ll start a list and will try to try some of these out for sure
Hermessence Brin de Reglisse hits the lavender note super distinctly with a licorice and herbaceous quality. There’s a slight citrus note, kind of like finger lime. If you go to the Hermes store they’ll give you huge sample vials of the hermessence line that will last you months
you shouldn't be afraid to layer too
True I could do this too
I’ll have to try doing this
I might instantly decompose walking into a Hermes but it’ll be worth it lol
