Have you tried Bright Crystal by Versace? It's floral, but not too sweet and has a fresh, clean scent. It's a great daily perfume.

Thanks for all the help - I think I will try the Versace one for sure, I have never tried any Versace perfumes but I will give it a go - it sounds right up my street.

What about Jimmy Choo Blossom? I’m really fond of it but it is on the sweet side so not sure if it would be too sweet for you.

Love Daisy Dream myself, nearly finished my current bottle.

I like the blue Miu Miu for day to day as well, really fresh.

Yeah I need something flowery with a clean fresh base, and something more sweet with a flowery overtone for the evening, so it is stronger and lasts the evening - doesn't come off. I go through my day perfumes quite quickly because I'm always topping up during the day when I'm most active, and in the evening when I'm doing housework or going out on the town I want something stronger that lingers and I don't have to keep topping up.

I have daisy and love it!
The versace bright crystal mentioned earlier is similar and seems a bit sharper, daisy is a bit sweeter and more summery imo.
Versace woman is another nice one one it's sweet and has a bit of a raspberry hint I think!

Flower by Kenzo might be worth a try.

Twilly by Hermes is to die for if you like floral/musk. Definitely a new favourite of mine. Also, Frond by the Burren Perfumery is similar but definitely a bit more floral and sweet once it develops.

I love this one too. It’s really light. I’m more of a Michael Kors girl but it’s heavier.

I love Marc Jacob's Daisy, it's perfect for Spring (when it eventually arrives!).
I'm also a big fan of Kenzo Flower, it's a stronger, more night time floral scent.
