Can anyone recommend a clean, fresh fragrance (due to personal experience)?

I really enjoy the Philosophy fragrances including Pure Grace which has a clean, soap & water scent, however, I seem to be allergic to their fragrances as I'm allergic to a lot of substances :) From experience, can anyone suggest some fragrances that are light, clean and fresh withOut a lot of fruitiness or floral? Thank you so much!

Update:

Thank you to everyone for their suggestions! I was at Target the other day, and I'd spotted a body mist called Romance in Bloom by Savour. It does have a clean scent that is similar to 'pure grace'. I'd tried on the hand cream, and I seemed to handle it okay. Just need to try the spray tester before purchasing since my system rejects so many chemicals :) Just thought that I'd share that with you if interested in looking into that item at Target.

Update 2:

Just to add that I'd tried the body mist for 'romance in bloom', and it actually had more of a musk scent as opposed to a "clean, fresh" scent. Being that it's a body mist, the staying power wasn't there either (probably not surprisingly). The hand cream is more pleasant though just fyi.

    I love Pure Grace too and I always thought Gendarme Cologne smells so much like it (it's for men though).

    Or have you tried fragrances from Clean? They remind me of perfumes from Philosophy in some way, but with more citrus. The dry down of Clean Ultimate smells a lot like Pure Grace.

    My most favorite fragrance is Beautiful by Este Lauder. It is clean and not over powering. Many people say it smells so fresh. My BIL is allergic to perfumes but this one does not bother him at all.

    Citrus scents always smell not to overpowering, but sweet and fresh. Try lime, cucumber, orange, grapefruit, lemon, and rain. They are amazing scents! You can get most at Bath & BodyWorks! Good luck!
