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 - Wind Flowers Eau de Parfum
A divisive floral with a hefty price tag, Wind Flowers struggles to justify its 'niche' status amidst comparisons to designer greats. Expect a strong white floral and musk combo - for better or worse, depending on your skin chemistry.

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. While some find it too 'loud' for formal events, its classic floral profile could work for certain occasions, and it's certainly not a sport scent.
