The intoxicating hot scent of Obsession is the perfect evening perfume. Best suited for cold weather (winter-autumn). Contraindicated for strict office dress code.
Obsession was created for Calvin Klein in 1985 by the then little-known perfumer Jean Guichard. The fragrance was completely unexpected even for the 80s, and has retained a certain eccentricity to this day. Even though Obsession has a pair scent, some experts believe that it has no gender. In his creation, the author tried to express the sensuality that arises beyond common sense when the scents of the skin of two people merge together.
The oriental spicy aroma of Obsession is reminiscent of the fairy tale “1000 and One Nights”, shimmering with exactly so many shades, like a complex symphony that each time sounds a little, but different.
Initial green notes, basil, vanilla and juicy fruity accord of mandarin, peach, lemon and bergamot.
The middle cools like the calm before the storm - spices, coriander, sandalwood, white cedar, oak moss, orange blossom, jasmine and rose.
And then a strong all-consuming and intoxicating trail of vetiver, vanilla, incense, civet, musk and amber.
