My daughter is turning 17 years old next week, and she’s always been exposed to perfume (as they evolved over the years) from a very early age. My mother, my grandmother, myself. I used to be a counter manager in cosmetics/skin care in a well known store many years ago in NYC (pre- Sephora days) and naturally fragrance was a big part of my world and as everyone knows, scent is so personal and memory evoking... I say this because when my baby was only 4-5 years old, she adored Clinique “Happy Heart” for many years... it was her first perfume actually! She also adored Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Abricot ( which I used to wear back in the 90s) and also shared with her). I’ve actually purchased the Vanille abricot multiple times for her over the recent years, until one day she tried Versace Bright Crystal. She loved it and of course I began buying her that. Until she tired of it. Now, myself, I wore Allure by Chanel, often mixed with the Conptoir Vanille Abricot and on my skin chemistry, it just worked beautifully. I think I recall being a fan of Ralph Lauren “Blue” I believe it was called which I haven’t seen in ages. Issey Miyake when first released too I was crazy about. My daughter probably doesn’t remember it but I bet she’d like it. (If it helps, she currently uses Donna Karan deodorant daily and enjoys the scent too) The reason I’m giving all of this information and my own background is because I didn’t wear Allure, or anything for many years ( approx 😎 and recently repurchased it. My daughter immediately exclaimed “I’ve got my mama back!” As she clearly recognised it ( she said this because I’ve been having some health troubles, hence not caring much about my own self. But wearing my old perfume again, I must say felt good. Still does whenever I use it. Though there are so many beautiful fragrances to discover still... 🙂 Now, my daughter really enjoyed the original “Flowerbomb” as a sample a few months ago but personally I don’t care for it. I felt it’s too heavy on her but when she wears the Vanille Abricot or Bright Crystal ( or in tandem) it smells wonderful on her. Additionally, she’s been using my Allure lately and aside from wanting to curb that lol, I know she likes having her own scent. And I want her to! My question for you fragrance experts is.... anyone have any suggestions based on my lengthy history? I was about to buy her the Clinique Happy Heart as I see it sold here on Sephora (nostalgia and from what I recall it was very pleasant , airy and young and fresh) but then doubt set in. She will probably be happy with any of these but... I’m a Libra lol. I was considering Jo Malone Wild Bluebell (though I might love it too but never tried it!) and Beachwalk (I believe it’s called which is pleasant to my nose) by Replica but that’s MY tastes. I’m also asking on here because I’m not able to walk around a store (disabled these days) and it would honestly be too painful to walk around a Nordstrom or a Sephora. So my nose is dependent on the internet and I can’t think of anyone more helpful than the Sephora BIC! I was considering anything that I’ve mentioned, along with possibly one of “younger” Killian scents (princess?) or even Twilly by Hermès? She seems to like heavier scents than I do, it seems... Suggestions greatly appreciated! Any and all. My apologies for this very lengthy post. Please advise. Thanking you all in advance for your time and patience xoxo
