Have a perfume made just for her. I forget where...someone will see this thread and know just the place. Very cool present.
But I have to tell you, when I was in Paris last year with a 16yr old, she loved loved LOVED the inexpensive stuff in all the Monoprix stores. We had to go in whenever we passed one, to see if they had something the last one didn't.

I bought some lovely accessories from Printemps. There were plenty of bargains mixed in with the pricey stuff.

There are some great small shops on Ile St. Louis which stock items that 18 year olds would love.
As to Pefume, look for some of the small shops that are able to do custom blends. But even the name brands like Guerlain have scents that are not available in the U.S.
For lower cost items made in France the drug stores are great.

 Sounds like I'm going to need to forgo the sofa I was planning to purchase next month, and bring that money to Paris with me.... L.O.L. ;D I think I'll have a lot of fun shopping for her with all your great suggestions!!
