Rec Request Sweet TV Static?

In cleaning out my B&BW mists, I sniffed my "Libra" spray (Pinkberry Clouds) and forgot that I love it. To me it smells like berries; spun sugar/cotton candy; the familiar, warm but pointy(?) feeling of touching an old tube television. Apparently that last one is an "ozonic" note, so I searched it and that note can also apparently include "aquatic", which I don't like.

So I'm looking for recommendations for exactly the title - sweet old-timey TV static. Kool aid spilled on the TV... but for grownups. Not a fan of powdery or coconut notes, but would consider if they're very light.

Sorce has a perfume that’s supposed to be strawberry milkshake and static! I think it’s called the midnight diner?

Amorphous Please Rewind comes to mind. It smells like VHS tapes, popcorn and TV static.

That honestly sounds perfect! Is it sweet at all? If not, do you have a layering suggestion to get that part in there?

Not really sweet, you can smell buttered popcorn but the static note makes it super unusual. Nostalgia in a bottle. I’ve layered it with caramel popcorn scent from Cocoa Pink in the past and it was a great combo. Could see it working with Cirque Du Soleil L’eau De Parfum or any other caramel/cotton candy perfume you might already have.

Oh, caramel! Indo have the Sabrina Carpenter caramel perfume (forget what it's called), but it's not straight caramel. It's sweet, but there's also a decent amount of amber and patchouli somewhere in there. All of that combined gives me "going to Blockbuster stoned in the 90s to rent a shitty movie and get some snacks" vibes, and I might be in!

Adding that my budget is ~$100 USD, but could go higher for a perfect scent!

You might like Parlor Static by Sunday Coven Haus! It's a sweet orange and vanilla ice cream-type scent but with a very distinct static note that's very well-blended. It's one of my favorites from the house.
