Nice fragrance for a teen?

My dd will soon be 14. She's just dabbling in small pieces of make-up and fragrance. She sometimes wears a cheap daily 'impulse' type spray. However I'd like to get her something special for Xmas.

She's seems to like my old Tommy girl perfume but didn't express an interest to have her own. She says she smells perfume in other girls and likes it but never knows what it is!

Any recommendations for something I might not have heard of (being very untrendy that I am!)

She likes gentle scents - watermelon, vanilla, fresh floral.
Not full on heavy iykwim?

Stella McCartney Pop is lovely.

Or Victoria Secret (pure seduction is my favourite)

next perfume smells gorgeous, and is only around £9 for a big bottle. i love cashmere and just pink. i wear it as an everydayer perfume and always get compliments on it.

Victoria’s Secret, Abercrombie and Fitch and Hollister have those ‘teen’ scents.

Marc Jacobs perfumes are in nice bottles for young people.

SillyPsychicAcid · 24/11/2018 11:39

Pacifica do some nice ones.

My DD same age loves Victoria secret sprays. Also Ariana Grande. Ghost do some nice fairly reasonable perfume sets. Vera Wang princess ones are sweet

thejollytrolleydolly · 24/11/2018 12:11

Vera wang Princess is a good one

Marc Jacobs Daisy is a really lovely scent. For summer, Light Blue is perfect and I also think some of the Jo Malones are nice for teens- the nectarine blossom and honey and Wood Sage and Sea Salt, both fit the bill

I just wrote an article about this exact subject on my blog. I think I'm OK to share it as I am a Mumsnet Blogger! bit.ly/2POxtQR

Has anyone tried the Ted Baker Sweet Treats range - Mia, Ella & Polly?

dontgobaconmyheart · 26/11/2018 16:05

Agree Vera Wang Princess is a good bet, I've got a 13 year old niece and she and her friends think that's 'cool. They seem to prefer the sweeter gourmand or fruity scents, Anna Sui sweet dreams is another she likes, the Victoria's Secret body mists, Viva la Juicy by Juicy Coutoure, Ghost Girl, any of those. D&G l'imperatrice is lovely and fruity and a nice bottle if you'd rather steer away from the gourmand.

YY to Next. Just Pink is very like Ralph Lauren Romance.

Ted Baker Polly is lovely
