    I keep reaching for Charlie more than I expected to. The drydown leans on Oakmoss plus Sandalwood and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. Give it a little time and Lily-of-the-Valley with Geranium comes forward β€” smooth and well done. I get about four to six hours before it turns into a skin scent. This one gets my highest praise β€” beautiful from start to finish.

    For a 1973 release, Charlie deserves more attention than it gets. The very first sniff is crisp Aldehydes with Hiacynth peeking through, very much my kind of start. The drydown leans on Oakmoss plus Sandalwood and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. Performance is consistent: comfortable sillage and several hours of wear on my skin. Well done β€” recommended if the notes appeal to you.

    I needed a full wearing before I made my mind up about Charlie. The very first sniff is crisp Aldehydes with Hiacynth peeking through, very much my kind of start. The heart is the best part for me: Lily-of-the-Valley and Geranium feel carefully balanced. After a few hours it becomes a soft skin scent with a lovely trail. I can see its quality, but it simply is not my style.

    A couple of wears in, Charlie has really grown on me. The first minutes are all about Aldehydes with a hint of Hiacynth β€” it grabs attention without being pushy. The base rests on Oakmoss and Sandalwood β€” warm, grounded and easy to live with. Projection stays close for the first hour, then becomes a soft, pleasant aura. Full-bottle worthy without a doubt.

    I needed a full wearing before I made my mind up about Charlie. The base rests on Oakmoss and Sandalwood β€” warm, grounded and easy to live with. Right away I get mostly Aldehydes alongside Hiacynth, fresh and very easy to wear. It lasts through a full workday on me, which is exactly what I want. A solid addition for anyone who enjoys this style.

    Everyone keeps talking about Charlie, so I finally gave it a proper test. The opening is built around Aldehydes and Hiacynth β€” bright and immediately recognizable. The drydown leans on Oakmoss plus Sandalwood and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. It projects politely for a couple of hours, then stays close and cosy. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

    Revlon knows how to compose, and Charlie (1973) is proof. The opening is built around Aldehydes and Hiacynth β€” bright and immediately recognizable.

    Revlon knows how to compose, and Charlie (1973) is proof. That first spray gives a lovely Aldehydes/Hiacynth impression that dries down smoothly. As it settles, Oakmoss and Sandalwood come through and give it real depth. It performs better in warmer weather β€” in the heat it opens up nicely. I would happily buy a full bottle.

    I needed a full wearing before I made my mind up about Charlie. That first spray gives a lovely Aldehydes/Hiacynth impression that dries down smoothly. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Lily-of-the-Valley with Geranium, which is where the fragrance really shines. It lasts through a full workday on me, which is exactly what I want. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

    My first Revlon experience was this one, Charlie (1973). The base rests on Oakmoss and Sandalwood β€” warm, grounded and easy to live with. The very first sniff is crisp Aldehydes with Hiacynth peeking through, very much my kind of start. The trail is there if someone steps close, not across the room. I reach for it often and always enjoy the wear.

    For a 1973 release, Charlie deserves more attention than it gets. The drydown leans on Oakmoss plus Sandalwood and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. Right away I get mostly Aldehydes alongside Hiacynth, fresh and very easy to wear. The drydown lingers pleasantly, and I do not need to reapply at lunch. A solid addition for anyone who enjoys this style.

I wanted to like it more than I did.

    A friend passed me a decant of Charlie (1973) and I wasn’t prepared for it. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Lily-of-the-Valley with Geranium, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Lily-of-the-Valley and Geranium feel carefully balanced. Longevity is moderate and the trail is noticeable without being loud. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

    I have owned Charlie for a while now and my opinion has only gotten stronger. The very first sniff is crisp Aldehydes with Hiacynth peeking through, very much my kind of start.

    A decant of Charlie sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. Right away I get mostly Aldehydes alongside Hiacynth, fresh and very easy to wear. The opening is built around Aldehydes and Hiacynth β€” bright and immediately recognizable. I get about four to six hours before it turns into a skin scent. It is fine, but it does not stand out in my collection.
