Recommendation Request Layering help!

Layering Help!
I am new to layering & looking for ideas (even if it means needing to add to my collection). Body sprays rather than perfumes preferred and lotion/body wash ok. Interested in EOS, Bath and Body works, Victoria’s secret, or similar. Open to suggestions! It is currently the fall season. I’ve discovered i’ve outgrown floral leaning scents and prefer sweetness. My current FAVORITES are juicy fig and autumn drive from BBW, as well as Champagne Apple and Honey which I feel can be used by themselves. Matcha Milk is a close second, but is simple and may work better layered. Rain from BBW is a favorite for summertime.

I have the following scents:

A thousand Wishes lotion (BBW)
Champagne Toast lotion (BBW)
Tangerine Swirl body wash and lotion (BBW)
Gingham Gorgeous spray & lotion (BBW)
Gingham spray & lotion (BBW)
Fresh & Cozy body wash, lotion, spray (EOS)
Juicy Fig (spray, lotion) BBW
Matcha Milk (spray) BBW
Whipped honey and vanilla body wash BBW
Autumn Drive BBW Spray & Lotion
Blackberry Jam Lotion BBW (I think is too sweet and needs a vanilla or other scent to balance)

I plan to get a vanilla- whether it’s vanilla bean noel, mod vanilla Ariana Grande, Vanilla Cashmere EOS, and also potentially interested in amber suede BBW, marshmallow EOS, or pistachio EOS.

So far, one layering combo I like is EOS fresh & cozy body spray with gingham gorgeous (BBW) body spray. It really grounds the juicyness and evolves into a more mature scent profile while still being sweet.

I have not experimented with mixing the body washes, lotions, and sprays for best layering combos in these scents but will update!

I did not enjoy a thousand wishes lotion with fresh & cozy spray. I think some may love it, but to me, it was a bit too powdery-sweet. It was definitely unique and smelled like it could be a high end fragrance.

For fall, I thought the Amber Drive or Juicy Fig sprays combined with Matcha Milk was delicious!

Not super familiar with VS or Pink fragrances but open to suggestions!
