Teenage girl appeal - LOL. Wear fragrance for yourself. There are no scents which appeal to everybody.

I only know Black of the ones you listed. It lasts the whole day, projections is medium and you can wear it whenever you like it. I have long past the tennage girl period so I can't help you with that. Do teenage girls like the smell of rubber tires? If yes, then they will love you in Black.

1 ml is around 10 sprays. So a 30 ml bottle is roughly 300 sprays. With 4 sprays per wearing that's 75 wearings, using it three times per week would make it last you at least 25 weeks. Why only three times per week btw?

The only ones worth owning are Bulgari Black and Body Kouros. Having said that the one with the most "teenage girl" appeal would probably be Black XS.

Try reading the reviews in the directory, or the "panty dropper" thread that's stickied at the top of this forum. Rating all these fragrances for you is too time consuming.

I voted for Bulgari Black, on all counts. As for the number of sprays, on average it's 10 sprays per ml, but sprayers come in different sizes, so one cannot generalize too much.

From this list, Bvlgari Black and Body Kouros, would IMHO each score 8-9 points in all categories mentioned

Diesel Fuel For Life!

I am 18 and the girls my age love it. I have a 30 mL bottle that I got for around $30. You only need 2-3 sprays when you use this because it's so strong. If you can, test it out at Macy's or Sephora first.

Longevity: 10/10
Projection: 10/10
Versatility: 8/10
