While at CVS recently, I took a whiff of the original Charlie and memories came flooding back. Charlie was my first real perfume, and I remembered how sophisticated I felt at 13, wearing my...

As I was picking up some necessities at my local CVS I noticed some early holiday promotions. The large bottles of Charlie were displayed and I couldn't help but pull off the cap and breathe in the...

I was surprised by how overwhelming & strong CHARLIE is at first. All of the key scent notes hit me at once. It just gave me an impression of an artificial peach scent, followed by a tangle of...

(EDT) I have had more pleasant surprises with Revlon scents in the past year than practically any other house. I honestly wasn't expecting much, but after sampling I really think that Charlie is a...

I somehow got this for Christmas (blue box kind) and I can easily say that I wanted to start laughing when I smelled it. What were they thinking when they bought me this? I didn't 'cause it was my...

Not a bad cologne for one that can be bought at a drug store. Strong scent, easily over applied. The bottle lasts forever (I have a bottle I bought about 10 years ago that I'll apply once in a...

This review is for Charlie Gold. I cannot believe how good this smells. I would give it a 5 if it was an EDP but since it is just EDT it gets 4. Even so, 5 squirts (one on each wrist, inner elbow...

Oh my God. I wanted to claw my nose off. I got a sample of it with a swap, and just tried it a few nights ago. I could immediately tell I didn't much care for it: too strong, spicy, generic...

Another nostalgia purchase... I remember when this came out & Revlon was still a major fixture in the department store "luxury" category. As a young teenager, I could hardly wait to get it because...

I hate the smell of this fragrance. My mother loves to wear it, but I've gotten her to wear nicer things when I'm going to be around (such as Dior Addict). This fragrance smells so cheap and gross.

My mother has worn Charlie (in the blue box) by Revlon since it came out in 1973. It was the first perfume my father bought her and she has worn it for 32 years. I buy her a bottle every year....

This cologne is growing on me. The initial spray is a little strong, then it mellows out to a woody (oakmoss) floral with aldehydes. It is very chic. It is in the Chanel #19 family of greens. Don't...

Yuck! Wayyyyy to strong and harsh ans cheap-smelling. Plus, the name is kind of cheesy. I do like the White and Red versions, though, just hate the original.

At School in the early 90`s, this seemed to be another popular one. Only ever in the body spray can and ALWAYS in the gym room. Ah, the spicy smell of so? and Charlie, what a combination ! YUK !
