L'eau par Kenzo (the original, not Indigo), Clinique Happy, and Givency Blue Label all fit your description IMO. Cool Water does too for that matter. Oh, and Nautica Voyage may be another one to check out.

I like Canali summer heat from your list. I don't really think Happy is energetic or sexy. Smells like Oranges with sugar dumped over them then its gone in about 15 minutes >.< Some other good cheap summer fragrances are Escada Sunset Heat, Thierry Mugler Cologne, Diesel Green and Bijan Wicked. Good luck

From your list: YSL Live Jazz. As mentioned try Bvlgari Aqva.
You can also try Sonia Rykiel MAN, it's my addiction right now.

Have you tried l'eau d'Issey or Allure Homme Blanche? Both are hot-weather favorites of mine
