Our take on the Charles of the Ritz Pure Perfume

A 1977 floral oriental from Charles of the Ritz, sold here as a pure perfume oil. The composition is rich and old-school: hyacinth, orange blossom and aldehydes up top, a heavy floral heart of jasmine, tuberose, rose and ylang-ylang, and a resinous base of myrrh, patchouli, sandalwood, opopanax and vanilla. It suits shoppers who like bold, powdery vintage florals rather than light modern scents. The oil format is alcohol-free and long-lasting, but buyers are split on how closely it matches the original.

Best forLovers of vintage 1970s floral orientalsShoppers who prefer alcohol-free perfume oilsEvening and cool-weather wearAnyone nostalgic for classic drugstore-counter fragrance
Pros
  • Dense, long-lasting oil base with no alcohol burn

  • Small amount goes a long way on skin
Cons
  • Several buyers say it does not smell like the original
  • Reads heavy and powdery to some noses
