Maybe teen age girls are the target market .... makes them think they are grown up?

Right , too sick of hearing this one or that one recommended this brand or wore this suggests that. If anything this makes me turn off or scroll away from the item. I dislike celebrity endorsements. These days too many perfumes endorsed by everyone. Tough to find a fragrance that is true to its original formula. Happy shopping

Unfortunately teen girls are influenced and they are the target audience for marketing and the celebrities who know we will buy our kids what they want. Many can order what they want from cash app or other forms of online shopping. The celebs aren't going to waste their time on us they know the kids are who is where the makeup and the money is and the household spending is all abouth the kids

I like Iman's Love Memoir alot!

Halston another fav back in the day and D&G Light Blue. Y'Satis by YSL was another fav circa 1984.

The vast majority of fragrances on the market are made for a celebrity or by a celebrity company.  Big designers ARE CELEBRITIES.

No, teenage girls are not the target market.  The target market is what the "market will bear."  Meaning anyone who wants to and can afford said item."

I usually don't seek out celebrity nothing, however,  If I find something that I happen upon and I like it, I will purchase.  This includes clothing, scents, etc.  I don't part with coins unless I like what I'm buying.  Periodttttt.

Chanel

Christian Dior

Tom Ford

Oscar De La Renta

More than once I've come across a fragrance that has definitely had their formula modified.   Cutting costs, or hard to get ingredients are part of it, but it's such a disappointment when "it isn't what it used to be".

Amen to "it isn't what it used to be " I find many change or cheapen formulas over time. I believe better formulations are put into the samples sold or given out than the later made ones. 

I noticed HSN had many 'celebrity' perfumes this year. I rarely buy any unless I recieve a sample or can try a sampler in a store(harder to find lately).

The commercials give me a laugh though (plethora around Christmas  .My husband comments when he has observed some of them -- if the cologne makes one act like that --perhaps it shouldn't be purchased.
