    What do reviewers say about Glorious and Charlie?

    This fragrance doesn't apologize for what it is. The opening is bold, presenting richness and sweetness that make an immediate statement. Warmth builds quickly.Glorious
    This is a projection fragrance. It announces itself and it lingers. If you've ever walked into a 1970s office and couldn't miss which floor the women worked on, that's Charlie.Charlie
