The floral-spicy notes of Obsession

This oriental composition was created by the highly talented noses Bob Slattery and Jimmy Bell. Obsession takes flight on the highly energizing notes of mandarin, bergamot and lemon. These blend harmoniously with more aromatic notes such as basil and coriander. The heart is intensely feminine, notably thanks to orange blossom. It is also a subtle blend of florals and spices with the presence of rose, jasmine and coriander. The base is sensual and bewitching thanks to the amber and woody notes of sandalwood, vetiver and musk... The intensity is at its peak. As for the bottle, it too is meant to be carnal. The idea was to give it curves evocative of sensuality. Designed by Pierre Dinand, the bottle draws inspiration from an Indian prayer stone brought back from the American Southwest and belonging to Calvin Klein's personal collection of rare objects.

Calvin Klein's first major success, Obsession is a fragrance of character. The subtle blend of florals and spices over an amber base gives the composition irresistibly seductive fragrances.
