I love clean scents. Are there any new ones out there that I don't know about?

I have the following that I wear when for my clean fragrances,

Clnique happy
Alfred Sung Mei
Paul Sabastian Casual

I also love freesia and musk scents but can't find freesia anymore.

Marc Jacobs Blush is clean and fresh due to an air accord note.
The new Escada has this too.

Seattle Rain and Fairy Wings from Goth Rosary. Have not test-driven sample strips yet but initial sniffs are interesting.

For cleanest, I'd have to cast my vote for Common Scents Egyptian Musk, which I almost always blend in daily with whatever I'm wearing. It's probably a no-no, but it works for me and adds a "clean" note. I frequently wear it to bed all by itself.

Té by Creative Universe is incredibly clean.
Eau de Patou- although admittedly more difficult to find these days.
Leilani- Child knockoff from Scentsational of Huntington is very clean on me.
Creature d'Anges is an interestingly clean, soft Oriental (and the price is great.)
Fleur de Citronnier by S. Lutens- if applied lightly- reminds me of the cleanest soap and water feeling.

I really enjoy that smell of stepping out of the shower smellng clean and pleasantly soapy. That's what these fragrances do:

Vervain Olive Leaf (Voluspa) - fresh, clean, soapy
Helmut Lang - soapy clean
Destiny (Marilyn Migler) - clean
Jessical McClintock - soapy clean
Glow (J Lo) - soapy clean [Don't hate me on this one! It's actually pretty nice]
Cologne (Thierry Mugler) - soapy fresh

Second Carriere and Clair de Musc good as well....although not in warm weather as it's a bit too thick for that. Carriere always. Love that one.

Would also recommend many of The Body Shop fragrance oils and core fragrance ranges:

Japanese Musk - extremely 'clean' musk gorgeous with a just got out of the shower freshness but still soft and feminine.
All TBS musks - they make all their musks clean and light but still amazing! Have you tried the White Musk oil?
Passionflower - light fresh floral almost not there but smells delicate & feminine. Skin but better!
Tobacco flower - rare discontinued but nice light clean smell. I fully intend to live in this come summer if we get some here in Scotland).

Hi there! I'm new here but I still wanted to make some recs.

I've heard Thierry Mugler's Cologne is a very clean scent.

Also 2nd the Lacoste Pour femme, Body By Victoria, & Clean Perfume fragrance line.

Not TBS's Rose Musk- it's powdery, soft, a dark rose, but definitely not clean ;D

I second Creature D'Anges and third Lacoste pour femme.
