Advantages A lovely perfume suitable for everyone and every occassion

Disadvantages None for me

Having almost run out of my perfume from my birthday and last Christmas, this year on my Christmas list was more perfume, I have my favourites but I do like to try different fragrances from my regular brands. One of the perfumes I received this year was Calvin Klein, my regular fragrance is Contradiction, but this year I received the fragrance Eternity by Calvin Klein, one I have never tried before, but I was sure I would like it.

Appearance
The bottle of perfume comes in a cream coloured rectangle box which is edged with silver border, at the top of the box in thin black capitol letters is the word Eternity, towards the bottom of the box again in thin black letters is written "eau de parfum spray vaporiser" and below this written in slightly bigger letters are the words Calvin Klein, the size of the bottle is also written in the bottom corner of the box, that is basically it for the design of the box, it is very plain and simple but at the same time does look quite stylish. The ingredients are written on the back of the box, again in the same thin styled black writing, making them very easy to read, again the back of the box is just as simple as the front and the ingredients list is the only information written on the back of the box. The bottle like the box is also quite simple but also stylish and would look good on display. The perfume comes in a totally clear glass rectangular bottle which shows off the very pale yellow liquid inside. The words Calvin Klein Eternity is written on the front of the bottle (again in thin black writing) which is very slightly raised, again with the size of the bottle written in very small letters at the bottom of the bottle. The bottle has a shiny silver lid which simply pulls off and pushes back on again, the shape of the bottle is quite hard to describe it is like a rectangle with the bottom 2 corners missing. Overall the whole design of the bottle is very simple but it is one I would be happy to have out on display as although not the prettiest bottle I have it is stylish.

The Fragrance
Calvin Klein Eternity is in no way a harsh smelling perfume, I have to admit it does have quite a floral smell to it, but personally I feel this is toned down a little by the base note Musk that is definitely present. I find the fragrance a little hard to describe as it is not what I would call a sweet perfume but not harsh and too flowery, the balance of floral fragrances and musk is just right so that they complement each other producing a long lasting perfume but not one that is too overpowering in fragrance.

Top Notes - Fresh Citrus, Freesia and Sage
Middle Notes - Carnation, Violet, Jasmine and Marigold
Base Notes - Heliotrope, Musk and Sandalwood

There does appear to be quite a lot of 'flowery/ floral' notes in this perfume which is certainly what gives it its slightly flowery smell, however this as I have mentioned is toned down by the musk which again is very noticeable without being over the top or overpowering. I have to say that so far I am unable to pick out the citrus notes or the sage (not too sure what this would actually smell like) these do seemed to be masked a little by the more noticeable floral and musk notes.
