looking for something fresh/green for my girlfriend

looking for something fresh/green for my girlfriend 1

Hello. New poster here.

I would like to ask perfume recommendations that are fresh, green, and perfect for everyday wear. Gonna gift it to my girlfriend for our anniversary.

Important info:

1. Southeast Asia region (warm/humid climate)

2. slightly acidic body chemistry (she injects coffee for breakfast)

3. hates sweet, floral, and heavy scents usually associated with female-oriented scents

4. likes Lacoste Pour Femme

5. walks a lot under the sun

I would appreciate it if the recommendations are accessible to the mentioned region like designer brands or sumthn. Niche/artisanal fragrances would be both outside of our reach and budget lmao. Thanks!

What about Éclat d'Arpège Eau de Parfum ? It's an inoffensive fresh, slightly green scent. Supposedly already quite popular in Japan, so I figure it might be easy to find as well.

another suggestion would be A Drop d'Issey Eau de Parfum Fraîche though that might be too floral for her. It smells like rain and soft lilac flowers

DKNY Women (Energizing Eau de Parfum) - this is tomato leaf that cuts through the heat.

Try Thai brands, like Panpuri. Some personal favorites:
Andaman Sails
Oolong Ritual
Figtionalism
Eternal Sunshine

They`re beautifully green, perfectly unisex and not floral-feminine. The 10ml roll-on is more reasonably priced and lasts forever.

Cristalle Eau de Parfum (comes in a new bottle now and slightly different - even better imo)

Cristalle Eau Verte Eau de Parfum

Diorella Eau de Toilette

Givenchy III (2007)

Eau des Merveilles Bleue (some women find it a bit masculine, but I understand she wouldn't mind that)

Jicky Eau de Parfum (aromatic, absolutely genderless)

Eau de Rochas (2015) (very affordable, but smells expensive)
