Our take
What does Euphoria smell like?
Euphoria, launched by Calvin Klein in 2005, broke with the brand’s fresh minimalism in favour of a darker seduction. Tart pomegranate, fruity persimmon and green notes open the scent. The heart combines creamy black orchid, watery lotus and sunny champaca in an exotic, slightly mysterious bouquet. Mahogany, amber and black violet in the base add woody, powdery warmth. It plays on the contrast between juicy fruit and dark flower, with assertive sensuality and marked sillage. On skin, the creamy orchid and amber dominate for hours, with a velvety, woody facet that is its true signature, while the persimmon keeps a hint of ripe fruit glowing through.
When to wear it
For evenings and dates in autumn or winter; it suits women who love assertive floral orientals.
It belongs to the Floral, Oriental / Amber family. Euphoria is one of 5 creations by Calvin Klein in our encyclopedia.
