A nice fragrance gift for 6 year old boy?

[Missnearlyvintage]

DS (6) would like to start having some fragrance to wear at special occasions - he asks to wear some of DH's if we're going anywhere out of the ordinary.

We had a look around Boots for inspiration, but the testers were mostly for the more expensive scents, and I'm not looking to spend more than about £10 - £15 as it's more of a novelty gift/ stocking filler.

If anyone could recommend a light but masculine fragrance I could get for him that would be fantastic thank you!

How about a 150ml bottle of Old Spice aftershave, it's about £6.

That would seem to meet the criteria of a non-offensive manly smell at a reasonable price.

Zara do scents for babies and children. My son wears one with a dinosaur on it!

My son too! Will have a look at Zara.

Brilliant! www.zara.com/uk/en/kids-boy-accessories-perfumes-l186.html

I’m sure Next had some too

The Next ones are nice, they have a choice of 4 or 5 and they also do gift set ones. My 9 year old has a couple of them

Why on earth would you want a small child to cover themselves in chemicals unnecessarily

Because my little likes to?

M&S do great fragrances. Not too expensive and there is a 50% sale on atm.

Don’t buy him old spice, he will smell awful 🤣

Try b&m, I think they do some super hero stuff, they also have David beckham aftershave which is cheap and not too strong.

It’s not really covering a child in chemicals is it? A tiny spray of something won’t harm.

I have bought my 8yr old son an addidas 'aftershave' it was £5 in superdrug and comes in a nice bottle. He also asks to use his dad's so thought he would like his own.

Sports direct do a nice range of Adidas and David Beckham ones.

Try The Body Shop or Lush

From My Little Pony to My Little Lynx in the blink of an eye!

My teens go to Superdrug, Body Shop and Jack Wills for smellies. You'll probably find something that smells nice and suits your budget in one or more of them. Boots wouid probably have something too (IIRC they had a Superman cologne last year)

DS used to love the Liz Earle tonic as "aftershave " so I gave him one of the little spray bottles.

I came to say Zara 😍 my sons have some lovely ones from there

My ds is 15 now and his dad has passed on his expensive taste in aftershave as he now loves Tom Ford Grey Vetiver (£££) but also loves any of the Police range available in Superdrug. They're around £10-£15 and the
bottles are fab and shaped like skulls.
Absolutely gorgeous smell too.

My 8 year old likes a scent on special occasions as well, he likes to feel grown up like his older teenage brother. I buy him the little bottles of men's scent from M & S, he doesn't even use a whole bottle in a year but I replace them at Christmas. The M &S ones are dupes for bigger brands so smell a lot nicer than old spice! (Sorry)

I used to squirt mine with clinique happy for men. If I catch a whiff of it now it transports me right back to their childhood.
D's now mainly wear Penhaligans scents but carry David Beckham stuff in their gym bags. It's not bad at all.

The Adidas blue coloured one is lovely and fresh
Socal by Hollister is really nice too - just light and fresh, not grown up

Thanks so much everyone! I've got so many ideas now!
