Hi everyone I'm looking for 1 or 2 fragrances for high school. I'm a junior (guy by the way) and I don't want "old" fragrances. Here are some of the fragrances I'm considering.

acqua di gio
Allure homme sport
D&g light blue
Curve for men
Calvin Klein eternity
versace fraiche

I'm open to suggestions as well
Thank you for the help

Women of all ages love AdG, and Curve so you can't really go wrong there. A couple other fresh scents that women seem to universally love is Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce, and Chanel's Bleu de Chanel. Those 4 are pretty common so for something a little different that i'm guessing a lot of high school guys don't wear YSL La Nuit. If you can talk your parents into buying you a bottle of Aventus for your birthday or something, you'll definitely be one of the only guys in high school wearing that lady killer

How about either Noble Cedar or Noble Vetiver both by Chopard.

Woody yet masculine.

I think L'homme will make an extremely versatile scent that you can wear through the rest of high school and through college if you go. It doesn't smell old. I think for the most part, you should keep it relatively safe because it seems like you'll be in a classroom setting for a little while. I'm against light blue but that's just my opinion.

Very good suggestions! AdG and Fierce are definitely loved by many. Although they do get some bashing for being too popular haha. Otherwise, they are very nice and safe scents to be used

+1 to YSL L'homme.

Also if you can afford it, Dior Homme (the original), very very nice.

YSL L'homme Libre is different than YSL L'homme.

Add another to YSL L'homme. Good for everyday casual use and good for date night.

Actually, you know what, if you can only pick one, scratch the L'homme I suggested before lol. Both L'eau d'Issey and Mugler Cologne are more interesting. Mugler's greener and Issey is complex with elements of citrus, florals, and aquatics. Both are extremely pleasant but also more challenging than L'homme.
