What is your favorite lactonic perfume?

Hello! New member here, I’m looking for help in encapsulating fragrance for a laundry product. I have found a seemingly popular DIY recipe with Epsom salt+ baking soda+ fragrance, but I have a feeling this won’t be a long-lasting scent like the products made by Downy and Bath & Body Works. Does...
I live and die for the scent of Bulgarian rose (Rosa damascena) essential oil fresh out of the vial, in its first 5 or so minutes on the skin.
The aroma is just too gorgeous. I don’t know what chemical constituents exactly to attribute to this initial smell, before it settles. It’s like a...
I am looking to create a deep, dry woodsy base for a fragrance. I am having trouble finding a combination of a fixative and a wood that doesn't end up just a bit too sweet.
I have the following ingredients:
Acetal (Natural)

I've made some nice trials, which I'm pretty happy with, but still far from...

I've recently fallen in love with the modern version of Miss Dior Originale and I really want to recreate it. But I've tried multiple versions and failed. Does anyone know the approximate formula of Miss Dior Originale? Thanks.
What scents might be the most refined, smooth, and with no cut corners, yet presented in staid office-safe formality?
As the question itself might give away, my nose isn't particularly well versed, so to give analogies with other luxury goods:
Like a pair of 18K white gold eyewear frames by...

1) Lemon, Vanilla, sandalwood(for citrusy creamy scent?)
