Thread Starter 
Hello

I'm looking for a clean¸ fresh¸ all year round mens fragrance with good staying power..

Somewhat similar to Paco Rabanne 1 Million but in a more fruity way with notes of pineapple¸mandarin¸bergamot¸ iris¸vanilla..

Any suggestions for a fragrance with these particular notes..??

Thanks in advance !!!

Maybe give Aventus a try.

Maybe, though only marginally similar, however truly a youthful all-year frag, YSL L'Homme may be worth testing.

Aventus, YSL L'homme, and Boss Bottled could be up your alley (though Bottled might be a bit trickier to pull off in really high heat). Aventus sounds pretty close to what you are looking for but can be pricey (look for a split).

Sounds like L'Homme. Disclaimer: It is no where near as sweet at 1 Million. 1 Million has a candy-sweetness, while L'Homme is more crisp-ginger/sweet
As Greek suggested, Boss Bottled is also nice. However, it it nowhere near as sweet at 1 Million or L'Homme.

Maybe try CK One Shock for Him. It doesn't have the notes you mention but still, it's the first thing I thought of. It has sweetness and some spice, kind of ambery, not too far off from 1 Million in my opinion. (I like both)

For 'freshness' and 'pineapple' I immediately thought of Aventus.

This was the first thing into my head when I read the OP.
