I tend to like CalvinKlein perfumes as I find them different and, in general, pretty reasonably priced. Escape is no exception to this.
A light, luxurious, floral fragrance that lasts throughout the day this perfume contains mandarin, apricot, apple, peach, plum and melon to give a fruity scent combined with sandalwood and cedarwood to give that woody base fragrance. It's a great blend that gives a refreshing perfume. It is widely advertised as a great perfume for the romantic occassion (it is) but I also find it great for day wear or evening wear as it is not at all overpowering and has great staying power. I know women of all ages that love and wear this fragrance.
The bottle is pretty simple, as you can see from the picture, a simple clear glass with a silver lid and spray pump. Nothing spectacular, but I guess less is ...
Advantages: strong scent, long lasting scent Disadvantages: nothing.
Before i go into detail about this product.....
The reason i first bought this, was that one night while staying over in a friends new house he just bought, i was in the bathroom, and noticed all the smellys he had lying around, my friend had quite a few bottles placed everywhere of different brands, so we decided to have a smelling competition and in the end this one (Eternity CalvinKlein) ended up as the winner.
It has a really strong smell, but in a way that is not over powering to yourself or anyone else. The smell does last quite a long time, i say a good 5 or 6 hours, and when out on the town i always get complements from women and men. Even towards the end of the night when the smell starts to fade a little.
I bought my first bottle of this from Boots, but cant remember how much id payed, but the last bottle i bought i ...
Advantages: A light ,sweet and fruity ,long lasting perfume Disadvantages: Expensive
