Charles of the Ritz Original is a 1977 amber floral eau de toilette, discontinued and now rare. It is built on a big bouquet of white flowers — tuberose, jasmine, ylang-ylang and lilac — over a warm amber, vanilla and spice base, with aldehydes and citrus opening it. It suits collectors of vintage drugstore-luxury florals and anyone who likes powdery, spicy white-flower scents in the style of the era. Only 1.5 ml sample sprays are sold, so it is a way to try the scent rather than a bottle to own.
