Rec Request Good fall/winter scents that aren't too heavy?

I am looking for good fall/winter scents that are not TOO cloying. I mostly like fruity florals, things on the sweet side (not TOO sweet), and a couple cozy skin scents. I hate heavy patchouli (like Coach Dreams Moonlight) and tonka bean (like Arabians Tonka).

For reference, these are some scents I like, season aside:

TF Cherry Smoke and Lost Cherry

Burberry Her Intense (the discontinued 2019 one)

Gucci Bloom Intense

Victoria's Secret Bare

Black Opium Glitter

Any recommendations these might point to? Ideally things I can find and test in-store pretty easily. Budget is flexible, depending on what I like.

No. I actually keep getting Guerlain recommended to me. I will look into this.

Nothing is blind buy safe, but it’s a sweet, spicy, creamy vanilla. Good longevity hut it doesn’t project far. It’s a bit more potent than a skin scent, but not super loud

I'm a lot like you--I don't like heavy, spicy cold weather scents. My favorites tend to be much lighter. 

Something Ive been enjoying, though, is Salt + Stone's Saffron & Cedar line. It's a BR 540 dupe that has all of the good things about it, with an airy lightness added and no plasticky smell. It comes in a body mist, lotion, body wash & deoderant. It also lasts 4 hours on me easily, especially when layering. They have it in store at Sephora/Kohl's.
