Perfume for a teenager

I want to get my 15 year old daughter some perfume for Christmas. She’s not in to florals, she likes Angel and Alien, but they are ££££. Any suggestions? (Doesn’t have to be like alien or angel)

One of my faves that isn’t pricey is Amor Amor by Cacharel. It’s sweet but not floral. www.boots.com/cacharel-amor-amor-eau-de-toilette-50ml-10028791

My friend's DD (just turned 16) is here with me at the moment and I've just asked her. She says the Zara perfumes are lovely. She has a few of them. Smaller ones starting at about a fiver and going up to about £20.
She's not sure if there's anything that's similar to Alien or Angel but says she doesn't like floral either. She likes strong or fruity smells.

You can buy dupes of Angel and Alien from Perfume Parlour.

Chopard Wish is very similar to Angel but cheaper (and nicer in my opinion!)

I noticed B&M had bottles of Angel eau Sucree for £32 when I was in there the other day!

my niece likes the Victoria secrets perfumes.

Recently discovered M&S perfumes, which appear to be unofficial dupes of pricier branded ones. A bit like how Aldi do things that look like the normal brand, taste the same, but aren’t! Anyway, they’re great. The bottles styled like branded ones - could see one that had bottles that looked a lot like Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh, another like D&G The One - and they smell like them. But are M&S own brand hence much cheaper. Defo recommend

Yves Rocher perfumes are quite cheap and not very heavy.

Roger & gallet!

Some of the Next perfumes are really nice. My preteen DD also likes a range called So?

BellaVida · 22/09/2018 13:25

Oh, I just remembered....DD likes Ted Baker as well. You can get it in Boots.

If she likes Angel & Alien she’ll probably like this & it will appeal to teens more than M&S or Next

Byblos Cielo is a wonderful dupe of Angel. Massive bottle too.
