So, I was wondering about how a certain aspect of charm person actually works. I do know that, should you successfully charm the person, they will know that they were charmed once the effect expires. (as per the spell description)
I also know that, according to the PHB204, "Unless a spell has a perceptible effect, a creature might not know it was targeted by a spell at all. An effect like crackling lightning is obvious, but a more subtle effect, such as an attempt to read a creature’s thoughts, typically goes unnoticed, unless a spell says otherwise."
According to the wording of charm person, "When the spell ends, the creature knows it was charmed by you."
So, my question is, if the target succeeds a will save and is not charmed at all, does it know that a charm spell was ever cast upon it? In the circumstance I'm asking about, a stealth check was also succeeded to hide the vocal and somatic components.
Any opinions are appreciated, but if someone knows of an official ruling related to this that'd also be great!
