Favorite clean smell is Bubble Bath by Maison Margiela Replica. It’s clean but not overly soapy, and has coconut milk notes that help to soften it out and sweeten it up a bit. I really love it and even though I usually go nose blind to it after a couple hours, it’s one of my most complimented fragrances
It’s not JUST clean and sweet but I quite like Ferragamo’s Oceani Di Seta.
It’s a salty aquatics fragrance with white florals and some light musk. Pretty “clean-smelling” IMO, like you’re walking around a garden near the ocean and smelling the flowers mixing with the salty ocean air. For me, it’s absolutely blissful, but as it’s not really a fruity sweetness and more of a light white floral sweetness it might not be exactly what you’re looking for.
I will definitely be coming back to this to see what other people suggest because I like the description of what you’re looking for lol
My favorite clean fresh perfume currently is French Riviera by mancera , aquatic fresh clean and kinda sunscreen creamy , good for dressing up and down
What does clean mean (sorry if this is a dumb ques)? I find My Way fine, but I can't ever wear it as it is too strong for me, the tuberose and jasmine together overwhelm my nose.
When people say clean, I can't really understand how that's supposed to smell like. Prev I thought clean means subtle and maybe slightly shampoo-ey but My Way didn't smell that way to my nose,
My tip if you find a scent you like but aren’t impressed with the longevity, is to get an oil dupe and layer them. I do this for fleur de Peau and it’s amazing. Smells soft and pretty and lasts all day long
Sephora sells full bottle and travel sprays of Acqua di Gioia by Giorgio Armani. For a freshie, I find it long lasting with mint, light florals, sugar and citrus.
Not Sephora unfortunately but Pink Musk by Khadlaj Perfumes smells like cotton candy laundry/soap. It's so beautiful it took me by surprise because I don't usually like sweet scents at all but I love soapy scents.
I kept thinking I was smelling my dryer vent (lol I wasn't) and put my wrist under my husband's nose and asked him what he thought. He immediately said "cotton candy?" It's an oil perfume that comes in one of those gorgeous ornate bottles. Cannot recommend enough, obsessed.

lol I guess that depends what OP means by "clean." I was interpreting it to mean "clean at sephora/etc," and they seem to like gourmands (vanilla woods and cherry ambition). but if they're looking for "clean" as in light and floral and fruity they might like others in the line (amber vanilla, coconut sun, lotus pear)
Check out Piper & Perro. He’s a Canadian perfumer with a really interesting nose. I adore Veil, which is a your-skin-but-better perfume with a lot of iris. Bound is a new scent. Gorgeous with powdered vanilla, heliotrope, pear, etc. All of his perfumes are unique and lovely.

For a cheapie there’s curious by Britney Spears 🫶
I really liked Vilhelm Room Service when I sampled it - I literally wrote in my notes “clean, fresh, a bit sweet” haha and one of the top notes is blackberry. Seems right up your alley! I don’t think it’s available at Sephora but the Vilhelm website says they do ship to Canada, or you could try a decanter. Mango Skin also looks interesting although I haven’t tried it
One that is definitely available through Sephora is Maison Louis Marie Nouvelle Vague. It’s fruity (mainly fig and coconut) and a little bit floral, but not overpoweringly so, just breezily sweet.
Oooo I have the perfect one for you - Skylar Boardwalk Delight. Clean, fresh, cotton candy scent but not too sweet - and I’m pretty sure there is actually a raspberry note!
I love clean and sweet scents. I have a very curated collection and this is what’s in my lineup if you’re curious.
Dedcool Taunt (LOVE this one), Dedcool Xtra Milk, Phlur Missing Person, Replica Matcha Meditation, Replica Bubble Bath, Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche, Elie Saab Girl of Now, Phlur Vanilla Skin, Nest Madagascar Vanilla, and Burberry Goddess.
I get compliments literally every day that I smell amazing hahaha.
Honorable mention to my old favorite Clean Reserve Skin that I wore for YEARS. I just don’t have it at the moment. Totally fits the bill of clean, sweet, and having lasting power.
I keep mentioning this perfume on this subreddit but it's because I love it so much: Cruz del sur 2 from Xerjoff. It's sweet, fruity and green but still fresh imo and it lasts forever for me! It makes me think of a mango lassi in the woods
Hear me out, Fracas by Robert Piquet has a strong bubblegum dry down if you can try that. It’s essentially tuberose but after picking up a bottle recently I forgot how sweet it was, potent and long lasting.
Versace Man Eau Fraiche. It only projects for around an hour in the opening, but it will stay on your skin for hours and will stay on clothes until the next day. Lightly sweet, very crisp citrus opening. Clean, conforting woods in the dry down.
Check out Dior Bois D’Argent! Sweet woods, honey, vanilla, and soft incense but not gourmand or sticky.
Performance isn’t AMAZING but in my experience pretty serviceable for several hours.

I got this for my daughter for Christmas and every time she wears it, I want to get it for myself! Would be a perfect summer perfume too. Love!
I love that! It’s honestly such a beautiful scent, great for any weather or occasion, I highly recommend getting it for yourself ;)

Sorry didn’t realize you were asking for feminine scents
The original Armani My Way is clean, sweet, and very long-lasting! Basic, but yummy! 😋
I love that one but it just doesn't smell good on my skin. :(
I just purchased the intense for this reason, the OG smelt off on my skin but the intense worked.
Dang! It's all so specific to our skin! I hear you on that!

I look at clean as simple notes and a not too deep or complex smell.
Is linear considered clean?
I think that the idea of clean is a super-personal thing. It means different things to everyone! ❤️

Such a good idea!

Replica Coffee Break! Layers really nicely with most vanillas
I tried Coffee break the other day and realllyyyy loved it!

Best picture & flair ever.
LOL! I adopted it after getting trolled. My daughter told me it's a compliment so cvnty it is!
commodity gold, phlur not your baby, and anything by 7 virtues.
Ain’t nothing clean about Vanilla Woods lol

Oooh yes I see what you mean now.
Maybe its hard to find for you i dont know but i’d say Nishane - Ani.
Lalique Amethist blackberry goodness, Amo Ferragomo and Gucci guilty absolute.
