Advantages: It is going to be an extra special evening Disadvantages: If I am not wearing it, you are not special
...“A woman who allows herself to experience a romantic obsession and invites a man to do the same” Those are the words of the man himself Mr CalvinKlein.
So who is going to dispute those words? Not me that is for sure. This fragrance has to be my ‘extra special’ perfume. Do you have one? You know for the special person in your life, or that special occasion you are going to. This is mine.
This fragrance first came onto the market in 1985 and is still going strong.
When I hold this in my hands I cannot help but smile.
The box it comes in, I would say is an off-white/cream colour. In large letters is the name Obsession at the top of the box. At the bottom you will see CalvinKlein, Eau de Parfum Spray, plus the amount the bottle holds. This one says 100ml. The box is plain and simple in its appearance but do not be fooled.
Open the box...

Advantages: Not flowery! Disadvantages: Can stain clothing.
...I was originally given a bottle of Obsession for my Birthday way back in my early 20's. I loved it from back then as I am not a flowery sort of girl and Obsession suited my skin.
Since then, I have had several bottles and have actually just run out so I need to find a man to buy me some! I hate buying perfume for myself!
It is a classic fragrance, and I hope CalvinKlein never change it or delete it from their range.
If there is anyone who is not into flowery perfumes, or if flowery perfumes don't suit you, try Obsession! It's kind of like a modern version of Yves Saint Laurent's Opium!...

Advantages: Great smell, nice bottle, lasts a long time Disadvantages: Quite expensive
.... I tend to wear this perfume to work and it's definitely a hit with the blokes I work with as they always comment when I wear this one, which goes to show it does have good lasting power if they can still smell it after a busy 8 hour shift!
Range
As I mentioned earlier, CalvinKlein produce many perfumes including the following Obsession, CK1, CK Be, Sheer Obsession, Obsession Night, Euphoria, Eternity Moment and Eternity.
Summary
This perfume definitely smells more sophisticated than some of the light and floral fragrances air. CalvinKlein state on their website that Truth is meant to evoke 'the lush freshness of nature and the warm sensuality of skin' so this perfume can smell very different on different people so I would advise you to test it on yourself before buying it....

Well as we all know, Calvin Klein is a top househole name, so when i went onto the site fragrancedirect.co.uk and saw this purfume for just £29.99p for 100mls i thought i would give it a go.

My mum bought me the Calvin Klein Euphoria Blossom gift set for my birthday in October so I thought it was about time I wrote a review about it. As you are probably all aware I love perfumes and can't get enough of them.
