by Calvin Klein
Eternity by Calvin Klein is a timeless, sophisticated floral fragrance that combines green freshness with warm floral depth. It opens with a crisp, green herbal accord—freesia, mandarin, sage—creating a sharp, almost medicinal impression that some find overwhelming. The heart reveals a lush, layered bouquet of white florals: carnation, jasmine, lily, lily-of-the-valley, marigold, and violet, where carnation is notably bold. This floral intensity, often described as soap-like, may trigger sensitivities in some wearers. The base of musk, amber, patchouli, and sandalwood adds warmth, depth, and a smooth dry-down that is both softly powdery and creamy, lingering well beyond eight hours. Despite its strong projection and longevity, many note the scent becomes more subtle and intimate with time—ideal for daytime use, particularly in spring and autumn, and widely appreciated for its elegant, classic presence. It's a fragrant statement that evokes timeless femininity, often associated with elegance and a touch of melancholy.
