Where to buy

His ready-to-wear collections were immediately appreciated for their elegance and minimalism. Because for him, fragrance is inseparable from fashion, he entered the perfumery business in 1981. After major olfactory successes, Calvin Klein unveiled Truth pour Femme in 2000. To imagine this composition, Calvin Klein drew inspiration from the greenery of nature.

Nature, sensuality and harmony at the heart of Truth

For this fragrance, Calvin Klein decided to draw inspiration from nature, from its lush green beauty, delicately laid upon a woman’s voluptuous skin. Calvin Klein innovates with Truth by introducing a new fragrance category, the lush sensual woody. Regarding the creation of this fragrance, Calvin Klein states that one must take one’s time, slow down, savor sensuality every day. The very essence of truth is living one’s instincts, being honest with oneself, with one’s own sensuality — that is what being sexy means. The Truth woman is naturally beautiful, and cultivates her sensuality with simplicity. The world of Truth is pure, it does not cheat. With Truth, everything is nature, desire and harmony.

The lush notes of Truth

Truth opens with an immense freshness thanks to lemon, bergamot and green bamboo. This opening then gives way to peony, a very feminine flower, and to sandalwood, which lends a soft warmth. The base heightens the already strong sensuality and even offers an unabashedly erotic touch through the combination of white amber and vanilla. Understated and elegant, the bottle responds perfectly to this quest for a natural, green scent. Lucien Baron is behind this design, marking his fifth creation for Calvin Klein. Truth is a composition that seeks nothing but truth, letting itself settle delicately on every woman’s skin, staying as close as possible to her sensuality.

Calvin Klein’s ready-to-wear collections are known worldwide. On the fragrance side, he also has numerous successes to his name, such as Obsession, his first major success, Euphoria, CK, a beloved unisex fragrance, and also Eternity. In 2000, Calvin Klein shifted emotions and presented Truth. Imagined after the green aspect of nature, Truth draws its inspiration from nature, but above all from the closest possible connection to a woman’s sensuality, in harmony with her.
