If you want to smell like everyone else, I'd go with either of those. However, based on your wardrobe I think you'd love
Thierry Mugler Alien Aqua Chic or
Thierry Mugler Alien Sunessence Edition Saphir Soleil and I doubt many around you will be wearing it

Thanks for the suggestion, I think it's a good choice 
BONJOUR.Both are good choices,also try
Kenzo L’Eau 2 Kenzo pour Femme
Thank you very much for so many suggestions!
I can not wait for choosing one 
Dolce&Gabbana D&G Light Blue much softer and in time is more close skin but also very nice.
Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia Essenza is softer then the one below less sharper try these two and see wich one you like.
Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia its a bit sharp at the beginning but setlles quickly And very fresh troughout the day.
Thank you 
How about longevity?
I love
Dolce&Gabbana D&G Light Blue
I don't like the drydown of the other one
Thank you

Thank you very much everyone!
This afternoon I went to a perfumery and well ... I still have not decided by any one that tried because I liked it but not between your recommendations and do not know if it's a good option or not ... is
Lacoste Lacoste Pour Femme
Do you think?
Thanks for your help
I like
Lacoste Lacoste Pour Femme very much, but it's very different from your first two options, it's a bit powdery and spicy. I don't know where you live and how hot is the summer there. I would wear Lacoste in spring, for hot summer I don't think so...
Yes, you're right, it is very different from the others and can not hang better choice for summer and less for the summer in Spain!
Thanks Altheea and everyone else 
My two scents. If it is not too late. 
It is a summer fragrance. So: light. You are from Spain, so it must be available in Europe. You don't like to smell like everybody with 'Light Blue', as good as it is, or with 'Gioia'. You're absolutely right.
I based myself on your like and love list, because your wardrobe is not so large. As always: try on your skin with a tester bottle in the shop or a tester tube at home and give it 30 minutes to settle and develop on your skin to see if it goes with your personal skin chemistery (the compability between the fragarnce and the flimsy natural oil layer on your outer skin different for everyone of us, the build/type/ composition of your skin etc)...
I'll give you five suggestions as inspiration, not as 'Five Commendament of the Bible'. They have nothing to do with my personal preferences, but with your 'like' list. I'll add some short info about every suggestion.
Versace Versense: Fresh, energetic, mediterranean. Bergamot, mandarine, jasmine, lily, coriander to give it some 'oomph' and depth and to stand out from all other summer florals. In the base we have olive tree. Elegant, classy, summery. Good longevity.
or
Versace Versus Time For Energy: Ligher than Versence. More summery. Mandarin, green tea, mint, yuzu. Bottle of 125 ml. So more aquatic than Versense. Medium longevity.
Nina Ricci Les Belles de Ricci Liberty Fizz: Summery, sparkly, classy. Rasperry, fig leaf, basil, black currant, tomato leaf (smells totally different than tomato, very fresh and green, summery and effervescent). Could be 'the one' for you. Great longevity for summer scent. High quality. A stand out of the crowd of generic florals; Something Penelope Cruz might wear on holiday in Spain.
Paz Vega also.
Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Lemon Fresca:Summer top class in a bottle. Guerlain quality. This is a lighter line of Guerlain, for summer. There are different aqua's in this line. Check them out. This one is a bit like 'Light Blue': Lemon, bergamot, anise. The anise gives a bit of depth and prevents that this is too shapp linear lemony and sour.
Thierry Mugler Alien Sunessence EDT Legere. Summer version of legendary 'Alien'. Super longevity and sillage, original and just great. Summery jasmine with lemon, cashmeran, green notes. If you want to spend a bit more money. But this is a keeper. Definitely try it.
Dior Dior Addict Eau Fraiche Another class act for summer. More rich, but still summer. Bourbon vanilla, mandarin, orange blossom, a lot of flowers and a base with Brazilian rosewood to tone down the flowers. Excellent. Dior longevity and sillage. Meaning: super!
And if you have to choose between Light Blue and Gioia, I have no doubts whatsoever. The winner by far, IMHO:
OK. I'll stop here.
Hope this helps.
Looking for a new fragrance is half the fun.
Have a nice summer and enjoy your new fragrance! Let us know what you chose.
