Best First Perfume For Teen and Tween?

When it's a gift for goddaughters and they won't be with me to say what smells they prefer ? Pretty sure that neither Billie Eilish nor Ariana Grande are popular with them. Girls are 12 and 14.

Mum of girls happy to trust my judgement when it comes to gifts.

My teen and her friends do like some of the star ones but Sol de Janeiro is very big at the moment for them.

There's a sol de janeiro mini sprays set on John Lewis for 33. Dd was very pleased with it for birthday.

ValleyClouds · 31/10/2024 16:51

I've seen a bit of that Sol de Janiero online - is it more like body spray sets ?

You can just get a single scent rather than a set. Mine loves the blue one.

ValleyClouds · 31/10/2024 16:53

That's interesting I'll look further at the brand, thanks

Or the set with the mini spray ,shower gel and bum bum cream.
My DD likes the yellow one but I’m thinking of getting a set of the mini sprays for her to try too

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 31/10/2024 18:02

My DD really likes the shower gel for an all over scent the bathroom smells lovely afterwards. Just a spritz of the spray. It’s quite light but I know some do go overboard !

Elphaba17 · 31/10/2024 18:05

Sol de Janeiro and Victorias Secret body sprays are big scent hits with my 13 year old rather than perfume.

she has asked for the Florence by Mills perfume for Xmas though.

I'm so out of touch I'd never heard of this brand before today! Thanks everyone

Sol de Janeiro or Victoria secret all the way.

You can get sol de janeiro in the larger branches of Boots.
Very very popular

AngryLikeHades · 31/10/2024 18:38

Next are very good at budget friendly perfumes that copy alot of the popular ones that are generally more expensive.

CinderellaFant · 31/10/2024 18:39

My 12 yo wants the sol de janiero and I'm thinking of getting her Sabrina carpenter perfume too

Floam6 · 31/10/2024 18:40

Sorry to jump on the band wagon but do any of these have a vanilla-ish scent? My 14 year old niece likes vanilla scents. Thanks

Attelina · 31/10/2024 18:49

Marc Jacobs Daisy or Dot.

TwilightSkies · 31/10/2024 18:50

The Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy is a good option. Smells like blueberry shampoo! And not too expensive.

avaritablevampire · 31/10/2024 19:11

My dd loves ghost but she's a bit older, so it might not count!

minipie · 31/10/2024 19:23

@Floam6 The orange sol de janeiro is vanilla-y - smells like cake.

Floam6 · 31/10/2024 19:25

Thanks @minipie x

Stompythedinosaur · 01/11/2024 11:19

My 11 and 13yo both like the Victoria Secrets body sprays, and have got Sol de Janeiro sprays for Christmas.

BreakfastClub80 · 01/11/2024 14:16

DD and friends all liked Miss Dior as their first perfume. They do also like Sol de Janeiro.

ValleyClouds · 01/11/2024 18:33

I went with Sol De Janeiro, the packs are quite small. I hope they like them. Thanks again.
