Perfume for teens

Last year one of my most successful gifts for my DDS was perfume. They each got a Sol de Janeiro spray and I got Ariana Grande Cloud for one and Marc Jacobs Daisy (though this was a less popular scent) for the other.

This year my DDS will be 12 (very nearly 13) and 14 at Christmas, does anyone have any suggestions what perfumes might work well?

We live very rurally which makes it tricky to rake the dds somewhere to try out different perfumes. Are there any that have been popular with similar age dc?

DSD (13) has one of the Gucci Flora range she also has expensive taste

My dd has loved some of the next perfumes. They do a set of 5 or so mini bottles, which is great for stocking fillers and are meant to be dupes of some of the more expensive ones.

There’s always news Sol de Janeiro sets being released so I’d pick a different one

Billie Eilish and Kylie Jenner have popular perfumes as do Sabrina Carpenter.

Wonderstruck Enchanted by Taylor Swift

New Sol de Janeiro is probably a good shout, thanks! We've had ones from Next too, thanks for reminding me!

Miss Dior

Mine is getting Sabrina Carpenters Sweet Tooth.

The Kylie Jenner one is actually really nice, suitable for a teen but a really nice day scent for anyone. It has good lasting power as well.

DD is older but she's just bought the latest Ariana grande Cherry one - it's gorgeous! She had the vanilla one last year, I loved that too.

Wonderstruck Enchanted by Taylor Swift

Where are you getting it from? Can’t find it anywhere!

indoorplantqueen · 09/09/2025 09:40

my dd 13 loves Good Girl

onyourway · 09/09/2025 09:42

Zara perfumes are great for that age. Reasonable too

indoorplantqueen · 09/09/2025 09:57

@Forgottenmyphonehave you bought from this shop? My dd would love the TS but that price is extremely cheap . Is it legit?

Doubleraspberry · 09/09/2025 10:05

The Fragrance Shop is totally legit. They have stores as well as an online presence.

There were some good fragrance deals on the TK Maxx website last time I looked, included some teen friendly stuff. Clinique Happy for £20 etc.

Mine loves Miss Dior but also uses a lot of Sol de Janeiro

BlueBlur · 09/09/2025 10:32

My dd likes Victoria Secrets, they do the body sprays and perfume

CaroleLandis · 09/09/2025 10:41

Moschino Toy 2 Eau de Parfum.

Streatfeild · 09/09/2025 10:55

Dd asked for and loved the Billie Eilsh one (bottle is like a statue of a neck and boobs. She wants a Sabrina Carpenter one that I think is coming out soon. Unless I have got confused which is v possible.

Rainydayinlondon · 09/09/2025 10:56

D&G light blue went down a treat with my daughter last year.... it goes on offer around black friday on amazon and we got her a 100ml for less than £40 its still one of my faves too.

We got her viva la juicy for her birthday too and all her friends love the smell of that one too! Always on offer in boots around black friday for less than £30

She is just getting into Victoria Secret now as well and bought herself bombshell from the airport in the summer

soontobeamama · 09/09/2025 12:30

Sol de Janiero is really popular with teens, also things like Victoria Secret body sprays. CK has also introduced some new scents that are more like body mists - they’re not as heavy as perfume and perfect for teenagers.

soontobeamama · 09/09/2025 12:43

Zara perfumes are also really good and many are dupes for more expensive fragrances.

Forgottenmyphone · 09/09/2025 14:00

I bought the Taylor Swift Wonderstruck a few years ago, from that site, and it was a big hit with my then tween! She used it all, the first time she’s every done that with a fragrance.

My 13 yo twin girls found Sephora in Birmingham, scary!!
Currently they like Miss Dior, Good Girl (Carolina Herrerra) and Kayali Lemon Sugar, all really nice, but not cheap
