Hello,

I am looking for a floral fragrance ( I'm a man ) but with a somewhat natural aroma, not Hedione or similar aromas.
Sorry for my demands and whim requirements, I hope you understand as a fragrance lovers.

Not gourdmand or sweet, Not dark, loud or dense,
Not vanilla, and not dirty, or animalic notes ( like benzoin or characteristic notes in classic Guerlain Fragrances as Shalimar )
No matter and no problem about lasting.

I like Shalimar and L'Heure Bleu, but now I'm not looking for that style and kind of oriental fragrances,
I also like Baccarat Rouge, but I already have it and I am not looking for that sweetness and darkness of Saffron, Ambery and Suggar.

Something soft, light, very floral and nature evocative, but not very synthetic typical notes.

( I'm a man, the arome Its to use at home when I listen to classical music, not to wear. )

Thanks.

Most of the Jardin Boheme fragrances on the more unisex side, while most of the Blu Mediterraneo range by ADP might also work for a certain Mediterranean garden feel

Dawn Spencer Hurwitz has some lovely natural-smelling scents. Giverny in Bloom smells like a spring garden with flowers and dewy grass. Vers La Voute Etoilee is a floral with lilies, jasmine and honey. Violettes de l'Aube is an ethereal scent with dewy violets in a garden at dawn.

Annick Goutal also has some soft nature-evocative florals: Un Matin d'Orage, as mentioned, Songes, Passion, Gardenia Passion and Le Temps des Reves are some creamy white floral scents. (Editing again to add that Annick Goutal has a number of rose scents, if rose was what you had in mind).

I'm looking into perhaps buying Giverny in Bloom. It looks fascinating as a Spring floral. II ordered a 2ml sample from American Perfumer. I hope this one is an unexpected gem.

It might be helpful if the OP described some specific flowers whose natural scent he enjoys. “Floral” is a pretty broad category, and flowers do not all smell the same, of course.

^ True.

I'll throw in my 2 cents with a huge caveat about price. Sonnet 18 by Annette Neuffer. Smells gorgeous, like a summer's meadow with wildflowers, and entirely natural. But the price is, admittedly, too much.
