    What do reviewers say about Charlie Red and 5th Avenue?

    Built for the woman who walks into a room and doesn't need the lights to find her. Bold white florals, yes, but threaded with enough honey and cedar to keep it grounded. Not loud. Just certain.Charlie Red
    This is unapologetically floral. The opening bursts with green-citrus energy before tuberose and jasmine take over. Clove and nutmeg add unexpected warmth.5th Avenue
