I AM AMAZED THAT THERE ARE SO MANY NEGATIVE REVIEWS ABOUT THIS FRAGRANCE BUT CHEMISTRY PLAYS FUNNY TRICKS SOMETIMES... BUT ON ME, THIS SMELLS FRESH, CLEAN, ZESTY AND POWDERY,. A WOODY FLORAL IN WHICH I DETECT MOSTLY THE SANDALWOOD THE ROSE AND THE MOSS. IT'S A GO TO COMFORT SCENT I LOVE TO USE AROUND THE HOME TO PLEASE MYSELF AND NO ONE ELSE! GOOD DAY FELLOW FRAGRANTICANS!

I used to love Charlie and was very happy to get Charlie blue as I thought it's the same. actually this perfume is a shame in my opinion. Headnotes are the notes of charlie's but very fast this fume becomes a stinky, spoiled mass on the skin and on clothing and a horribly stinky but just as strong and longlasting smell remains that is impossible to wash off our wash easily out of cloths. It is so bad it made me literally sick. And this is not a question of taste, I think. This is not simply a watered down sister of the original charlie, but is like the worst replike that only resembles in headnotes and cheap, artificial, disgusting juice remains of all the nice headnotes. Must be one of the most horrible perfumes ever - sorry. However, Charlie, the original one was beautiful, bold and sparkling. I would happily pay 3 times the price of charlie blue for a bottle of the original charlie.

používam ju ako náhradu Melody dreams, nikde sa už táto nedá nájsť. Z nostalgie a ako spomienka na mladší vek mi úplne vyhovuje na bežný deň.

Geranium, musk and roses. Very long lasting and intensive. To me it is very similar to Paris by YSL after the opening when the note of a rose becomes silent. Longevity is incredible, it lasts and lasts.

I had a bottle some time ago and I sold it. The geranium is what I could detect the most. All in all it wasn't bad done but I got uncomfortable when I was wearing it. It was too strong and this is eau the cologne! It has a great lasting power and doesn't feel it was created in 70's - I'd say in 90's!

It's a bit masculine.

To be honest, I think I actually like Charlie Blue (the freshened-up version of the original Charlie in the dark blue box). It smells like it was made of cheap materials, but the composition is fairly well-balanced, and its chypre-esque citrus and oakmoss scent profile is actually quite unisex, bordering on being outright masculine. There is a green hue infused between the lemon and orange top notes, probably the geranium, which sets a pretty good stage for the hints of rose and white flowers that follow. Although it conjures rather jaundiced 1970s imagery of Chesterfield-smoking women ironing and watching soap operas, I could see this version of Charlie working for the right 21st Century man or woman. It sidles next to Grey Flannel as an under-appreciated and classic floral chypre drugstore cheapie.

Extremely gross, masculine and harsh. I don't like it.

This perfume reminds me of an era; when I was little, and couldn't have it, admiring all my grown up relatives for wearing it. It was that innocent perception on sexuality and attraction, and I bought a bottle unsniffed, just because I don't want to lose this memory and feeling ever!
Εdit: and guys, it is floral. To me, it's spicy floral. And soapy, but I forgive it for all the above reasons :-)

This is the scent that i would typicaly dislike if it would be released now , BUT it is so retro , so vintage, it has this little something that in the 70's a scent could be at the same time funky AND classy ! This is not a perfume for everyone , i must admit , would go very well on someone wearing groovy colors , like it was trendy in the 70's
To sale nowadays Revlon would have to add tons of sweety notes :-( , but please don't change it ! Charlie Blue is part of perfumery patrimony ! Don't touch!

UPDATE: This is a master of longevity! I washed my clothes on which I had sprayed Charlie Blue and they still smelled after that!!! It is simply unbelievable. I love this stuff, although it seems too intense to wear it in public! For the use at home it is great and really inexpensive!

Quite simply the most horrific perfume I have ever encountered in my entire life, both on the skin and in the air. This stuff is NASTY! It almost choked me! Just smells like chemicals and urine with subtle hints of perfume oils which, even without the chemical, urine smell, would still be somewhat unpleasant and very ordinary. This so called perfume is not worth a penny! Or a cent! The positive reviews are completely baffling me. Try a sample first I guess.

I liked it for the first 5 mins or so but after that it became a chemical horrible mess on me I had to run home and scrub this one off. Very good lasting power though (unfortunately for me). In a nutshell N-A-S-T-Y at least it was for me.

Charlie Blue is a powerful stuff! Amazing musky, woody and floral mix is kind of animalic to my nose, but I really like it. I wouldn't classify it as purely floral as the old school muskiness is too distinctive. I guess it is a very seductive scent, a bit dated-but I do not care at all;-) It is not an office scent, but rather "after hours". I sprayed it yesterday on my wrists going to bed and today I woke up still smelling this super sensual aroma. The quality is not bad and the price is low, so it is another example that it is possible to get a fabulous fragrance without ruining one's budget. Not to everyone's liking though, do test before buying.

It's really about the song with this one. The fragrance is utterly forgettable. But it's worth wearing when you're out and about because that awesome little commercial ditty keeps playing in your head - "and they call it, Charlie!"
If only I had a 70s style pantsuit I would spray on Charlie and go to the mall.

This is a masterpiece. It is very complex, great quality and for an even better price! For you wondering what it smells like, it is the twin fragrance of Jil Sander III. I have them both and love them both, but the Jil Sander III is of course a much more expensive perfume. Both masterpieces.

A friend of mine adores this and wear it all the time. It was my Aunt's scent back in time. As for me... well, not my fave one. It smells so cheap and dissociated on my skin. It's like throwing strange notes together without any sense, it's quite harsh and like something you get used to smell because it was everywhere. Yes, it's cheap but not worthy IMO.

An underrated fragrance, probably because it is a drugstore scent, and once was so ubiquitous. My Gram wears this, and I had a bottle of it myself. This fragrance really hangs together as a seamless whole, like many scents of the 70's. It is bright and upbeat, and it stays true all day long. My only quibble is the new "Blue" version doesn't smell exactly like the original, though it is supposed to be the original fragrance.
