Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Charlie Red Eau de Parfum
Charlie Red is a quintessential 90s powerhouse floral that divides opinion. It's either an expensive-smelling, timeless classic or a screechy, dated air freshener. Love it or hate it, its strong performance and nostalgic charm are undeniable.
Statement
Our Verdict - Ego Exotic Eau de Parfum
This loud white floral powerhouse has opinions. You'll either adore its peachy sweetness or find its synthetic edge a bit much. Give it a blast and see if it sings for you.

Its potent projection and longevity make it less suitable for the office, but perfect for casual wear, especially for a bit of 90s nostalgia or making a statement.
