Teenager upset with the French perfume (10)
I believe the answer is:
adolescent
'teenager' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'upset with the french perfume' is the wordplay.
'upset' becomes 'ado' (both can mean controversy).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'the french' becomes 'le' ('the' in French).
'perfume' becomes 'scent' (synonyms).
'ado'+'le'+'scent'='ADOLESCENT'
(Other definitions for adolescent that I've seen before include "sixth-former, say" , "Developing" , "Person in child-adult transition" , "One growing" , "Immature" .)
