Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grown-up fragrance, oozing with classic glamour. It's rich, complex, and unashamedly vintage - a scent for those who appreciate timeless elegance over fleeting trends.
A lost icon, Charles of the Ritz is a powerful, elegant floral amber that evokes deep nostalgia for those who remember it. It's a divisive scent, but undeniably a classic that many still desperately try to track down.

Occasions
Given its rich, intense character with prominent animalic and woody elements, this scent is far too grand for the office or casual wear. It shines brightest in formal settings or on a romantic date, where its complex warmth can be fully appreciated without overwhelming others.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its enormous sillage and longevity, this is definitely not an office-friendly scent in its original form. It shines best in formal settings or during romantic evenings where its powerful presence can be appreciated without overwhelming a small space.
