Aftershave/scent for young teen boy

Any recomendations for a first aftershave? Nothing too heavy or overpowering. What are the youngsters wearing now? When I was young it was all CKone. 😁

Mine likes invictus, it's expensive but now he is currently wearing a dupe £1.49 Titanium from Boyes

My adult DS liked the Diesel ones when he was younger, and asked for one of them again last year.

How about Zara? They do great scents, some of which are duplicates of more famous fragrances.

We actually DID buy CK one for our DS when he was 13! He’s now 18. Our reasoning was that it’s quite innocuous and if he was going to be liberally spraying it around we wanted it to be something we liked 😆. He loved it as well. He buys his own stuff now and some of the colognes he wears are really heavy and not nearly as nice (imo). So that’s my advice, get something you quite like too

I'm thinking CK1 too.

For the sake of his teachers' olfactory wellbeing in confined spaces, anything...ANYTHING...but Lynx Africa as a dupe.

Confused

  • "ANYTHING...except Lynx Africa as a dupe".

It's still CKOne

Axelotl · 25/11/2023 09:52

I was going to suggest Lynx Africa. A female comedian did a funny sketch about that.

Old Spice

Anything by Calvin Klein seems popular still!

Goddessonahighway · 25/11/2023 14:26

Brilliant advice - thanks all. Funnily enough, I found a zara dupe for invictus and bought that online last night. I might buy him ck1 next time though - nothing to dislike about that one too. Nothing too heavy or in your face. And as you say, his teachers will thank me. 😊

Thanks for the recommendation!

Some of the Hollister ones are nice

Goddessonahighway · 26/11/2023 11:14

@CampfireZen how much of a difference it'll make overall to the wall of Lynx Africa as you walk into that classroom, I don't know! But every little helps.

We need to start a movement "Pray for teachers" in January, after all the kids have their new smellies. Wishing you luck in the New Year!!! 😆

Police ones are nice,not too expensive and the bottles are quite cool.

All if my boys have liked David off Cool Water. It isn't overpowering and has a nice fresh smell.
