Realistic Lily of the Valley Perfumes?

Hello, hi, me again!

Does anyone know of any actually realistic Lily of the Valley perfumes? I mean ones where you can ACTUALLY smell it, not with like 5 other florals trying to crowd it out.

Kind of fresh-floral Lily of the Valley? I'd be able to spend up to €200 on it, and I'd prefer an EDP to an EDT so that it actually lasts.

Please, no discontinued fragrance suggestions or fragrances that come from the UK or America due to import issues.

Fragrances That Make You Think Of This Or Would Fit This Aesthetic?

What fragrances would make you think of those romantic renaissance paintings? You know, The Statue of David, the painting of Venus, the flowy white partially sheer dresses you see in paintings.

I'm unable to just go out and test, so I'll either have to blind buy or find samples to buy to test them but I REALLY am feral for something that invokes thoughts of THAT time period. The good, pretty and romanticised parts. Not the plague bit of that time period, lmao.

Budget of €150. Available in Germany itself or the EU. Not willing to buy from America or England due to extra import costs.

My preferences are:

  • Long(ish) lasting.

  • Inviting. (if that makes sense)

  • Fresh smelling.

My dislikes are:

  • -Heavy.
  • -Syrupy sweet. (can be sweet, just not unnaturally so)
  • -Migraine inducing in the summertime.
  • -Extremely synthetic smells.

White musks, citruses and aquatic scents work well on me. Lily of the Valley as well but I'm not the biggest floral fan since I find many floral fragrances smell far too mature (60+) for me. I'm 30, for reference.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Yeah, so I'm wondering if I should dye my hair black again or have it in the red family. For reference, my skin is already quite pale and neutral to cool toned. My eyes are a medium, golden honey colour, my lips are a pale cool toned pink and my natural hair is a neutral medium brown colour and I'm, unfortunately, greying quite a bit despite only being 29 at the moment.

I've censored my face in the photos. Both are just my hair in its air dried state but in black and a light copper.

My hair when it was dyed a very dark level 3 brown.

My hair when I dyed it a light, level 6 copper.

So, should I dye my hair black or a dark copper? Thank you for any advice, stay safe out there.
