Friday afternoon casual date advice

An old friend of mine is back in town after having lived out of state for the last 15 years. We've reconnected, and I'm excited to catch up and hang out and see her again.

I've been going back and forth on what to wear and which cologne to go with. I want to keep it casual, but smell masculine, but be in harmony with the 85 degree weather and the old Austin vintage vibe that she puts out. When I saw her last week for the first time in years, I just happened to be wearing Black Orchid EDP, and she commented on how much she liked it. I would wear it again, but it's hot, and I'm worried that it might be too much for the outdoor weather.

Here's what I'm considering. Let me know what you think

Third Eye Iris obsidian - dark, powdery iris with lavender fougere

les bras de Morphee - spring floral iris with a touch of hazlenut and vanilla

Byredo Gypsy Water - another floral iris, but with a woody sweet dry down

Ferragamo EDT - office friendly, but has a bit of green to it

Tom Ford Black Orchid - it's what i was wearing last time I saw her, and she already complimented me on it

Le Labo The Noir - sublte tea with a bit of fig

Something else? let me know in the comments
