Firstly i hate oud so anything oud heavy is not for me .Im looking for something that is bright and uplifting , and is tropical and fruity .No systhetic .Just as reference , i love love love erba gold opening but it dries down into a disgusting bring 15$ musk.Hwiever i adore the opening .If theres smth that is good longevity and decent projection , and is bright and tropical and light , nothing heavy.As reference , i dont rlly like ysl y edp too as it feels abit too masculine and thick for me , though its so called fresh .Please suggest some bright uplifting tropical mango/fruity fragrance

I bought erba gold and the moment i smell the opening i thought this was gna be it.Hiwever , the drydown is so freaking disgusting .The fruitiness is all gone and left with a smoky musk that smells like cheap 15$ cologne .Im wondering if there’s fragrance like it that’s tropical but not too sweet for the summer , shld be bright and uplifting .Good longevity and decent projection as well.Lastly i hope the smell wldnt dry down to smth disgusting like erba gold pls recommend
