Need some help with recommendations for men perfumes
Perfumes I liked and have used:
1) Boss Bottled (Hugo Boss)- loved the vanilla and the sweet lightness of the scent. Bought 3 bottles over the years. Daily use. Performance might no be that great for some, but it's good enough for me. Not overpowering is key.
2) YSL Y EDT - loved the freshness (especially the opening scent). The dry down was a little intense for me (for an EDT) yet still acceptable but I wished that it was less. Great projection (few compliments from ladies) and long lasting (>24hours).
Perfumes I purchased but did not like (including miniature bottles). I may have initially liked the opening scent but the dry down for all of these are almost similar (the common type of base notes that smell almost similar if someone wearing them passes by):
1) Hugo Red (Hugo Boss)
2) Acqua di Giò Parfum by Giorgio Armani
3) Versace Eros
Ladies scents that I liked for some time:
Gucci Gorgeous Gardenia (light and sweet)
Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet (a little overly sweet and yet pleasantly intoxicating!)
Ladies scents that I disliked for some time:
Jadore Dior (too musky) (reminds me of parent's perfume)
Currently I am looking for a new scent. ChatGPT/AI recommended a few like:
1) Bleu de Chanel EDT - tested it but it was heavy
2) Prada L'Homme - not yet tried but sounds promising from the reviews and the floral ingredients!
Any SIFU can recommend? Thanks a lot!
I think you can’t go wrong with Bleu de Chanel, but the one usually recommended is the EDP rather than the EDT. It’s an all-time favourite, but not too many people wear it because of the price tag.Perfumes I liked and have used:

Boss Bottled, or Boss No. 6 is one of my favourites. The only drawback is its longevity, it lasts only about half a day on me.
