Calvin Klein Perfumes

Well, for like the past 7 years, I've been wearing the very same scent (Cold by United Colours of Benetton), so I hardly know what's been happening in the world of perfumery.

So a friend buys me this new perf by Calvin Klein, IN2U for him. She says it's new and kind of cool. I didn't even know Calvin Klein was still into making perfumes. Well, the last thing I saw from him was the CK CRAVE, which was good too. But I began to realise that there's been a lot gone past me. I found out about the CK EUPHORIA, CK ONE SUMMER, ETERNITY PURPLE ORCHID, CALVIN KLEIN MAN, CK ONE ELECTRIC, TRUTH and even the ETERNITY SUMMER.

The CK IN2U itself is classified as a fresh, woody, flowery, oriental and masculine fragrance with notes of cacao, cool musk, pomelo leaves, palissander wood, shiso leaves, tangelo, lime gin fizz and vetiver.

People, don't get me wrong, I'm a freak for perfumes but when they start making so many fragrances so fast, I think there's a problem. Too many perfumes start smelling too similar. And then, they start mixing up all sort of rubbish. Please forgive me because I really respect the man Calvin Klein, but MASCULINE, FLOWERY, WOODY, MUSK, CACAO and FRESH? All in one fragrance.  It does smell great but it smells a bit confused too. Sometimes you can perceive the various notes separately, and I don't think that makes sense. Remember FAHRENHEIT by CHRISTIAN DIOR? You couldn't mistake it for anything else. Intense, woody, sensual, masculine! In fact, unique.

Well, I guess change is constant, but when it comes to perfumes, I'm sticking to the past.
