Advantages: None that I can think of Disadvantages: Toom many too list - Just an awful fragrance
What kind of present do you buy a family member that has given you no indication of what they would like? That?s it, some fragrance. This is exactly what my younger sister did for me however, she ended up getting it really wrong.
Rather than playing it safe and asking my other half what I usually wear and getting me some of that she decided to go it alone and take a punt on something new.
The product she chose was Obsession for men from Calvin Klein. Having disliked CK1, CKBe and the CK fragrance stored in a plastic pencil case (the name of which escapes me) I have never been a fan of Calvin Klein fragrance in the past but since it was a gift I gratefully accepted it.
****Packaging/bottle****
Considering this is meant to be a man?s fragrance this is one of the most feminine bottles that I have ever seen.
The bottle is ...
Advantages: A great perfume that lingers Disadvantages: too much is over powering
I love classey designer perfumes and am a real sucker for a new smell. Having only just come across Obsession by Calvin Klien purely by accident in my local Boots I was acually after a bottle of Eternity but sprayed myself with this instead. At first I did actually think phewwww bit too strong for me, but after about half an hour of smelling this some what heady and oriental fragrance, I was hooked and marched straight back to Boots to buy a bootle.
Obsession is the kind of perfume that little is more. This is not the kind of fragrance you would drench yourself in as it would just be too over powering. It has great staying power so a re spray is not really needed.
Obsession, has an oriental smell to it mixed with a kind of earthy/woody smell. It lingers but some how does not deminish in it's intensity. More suited for evening wear ...
Advantages: Strong, long lasting and cheap Disadvantages: Too strong, fruity smell lingers and vile looking bottle
After digging around the house last week I came across several bottles of aftershave from my early twenties. Included within the collection of dusty bottles was one of my firm favourites from those carefree times of my life, Obsession for Men by Calvin Klein.
Obviously as the aftershave was well over 4 years old it smelt disgusting but after some consideration I purchased a bottle for £21.00 for 50ml from www.fragrancedirect.co.uk. This is surprisingly cheap in comparison to how much it used to cost however it should be noted that you would pay £25-£30 in the shops for the same bottle. Obsession is widely available from all Boots, Bodycare and Rackhams. My bottle arrived this morning and I?m happy to report that the vile smell that wafted from my old bottle was indeed completely different to the gorgeous smell from my new bottle ...
