Calvin Klein Eternity Moment for Women Eau de Parfum

Product Information

This is better as a room or bedding spray. My 62 year old mother doesn't like it either, neither of us are into fresh, light, overly floral, citrus or aquatic scents. I didn't realise she'd had a full bottle for ages that my brother bought her because she never uses it. I was put off of this for a little while due to a colleague who doused themselves in this to the extent you could taste it 😂 I also feel a fat, juicy and gooey peony, sweetened lily of the valley and lotus, surprisingly they aren't listed in the notes, but melon is. I can't feel that one. I only disapprove that the fragrance has been copied so many times and is now commonly used in detergents, home fragrance and other industrial uses, making it cheap (but it's also a demonstration of the great popularity and appreciation this combination of notes had among the main public).

There’s a quote by Joanna Newsom about her own marriage that I feel sums up the concept of this fragrance perfectly: I just want to point out something about how this was initially marketed. Eternity was introduced in the late 80s, so it maintains that "everything but the kitchen sink" approach used to create the big and bold creations one associates with that decade. It followed the great success of Obsession, which as the name suggests, was all about marketing it as a passionate, dangerous perfume of, well, obsession. I can hand-on-heart say, that as a flanker, this beauty is better than the original, I think lovers of Eternity will probably not like this. First spray and it reminded me of another perfume I have already had and enjoyed: of course the classy EA 5 Avenue, the floral vibe is almost like EA but the difference is that EA stays floral all the way while this one has an inconfondable fruity vibe given by litchi and the leading floral note is peony. Also the fruity part I find it similar to Versace Bright Crystal only that BC is more girlish and watery while EM is more adult. I think if 5 Avenue and Bright Crystal blended together the result would be Eternity Moment. To me during the first 5 minutes this perfume is a typical floral but then the fruity notes start to appear especially litchi and raspberry even though the never fully take the stage. In the drydown becomes a creamy floral so not fresh or aquatic.I was super excited to try Calvin Klein’s Eternity Moment since peony is one of my favorite florals and I have never smelled water lily in a fragrance before. That being said, this perfume is a major disappointment; it literally smells like the most generic drug store body spray you can imagine. It’s a brew of synthetic scents that leaves behind a very unpleasant odor of plastic and damp skin. EternityforHerEaudeParfum. Top notes of bergamot, white lily, and white rose finish with spicy tones of sandalwood.

The fragrance screams spring to me; the blossom of the flowers and how they fill the air with their perfume in the early morning. It's like walking barefoot in the middle of a garden and inhaling the perfume of peonies, jasmin, water lilly. This perfume started to grow in me, there's something mature and classy about it, it's easywearing but it requires a character. I also believe it makes a statement for whoever wears it but I think it especially suits women above 30. You know those candies that are like "Sweet...and then sour." This reminds me of those because it's basically two different scents in one. Eternity Moment has the same base as Eternity with a lot of floral elements and a 'honey' on top. It's something sweet, but I can't tell where it comes from. This is a spring/early summer fragrance that is very fresh, slightly woody and is reminiscent of blush coloured flowers (the peonies etc). A spring wedding fragrance that has echoes of the original classic, but not as big in personality, this will last the whole day and not be offensive or overpowering. It has presence, but it is respectful and inoffensive. I'd wear this to a high tea on weekend for sure!I have a travel bottle of Kayali musk that I’ve layered under this and it really softens it up, lovely combination. Most of us know a lady who’s generally very good looking, sleek and well groomed but with one eccentric feature; a crooked or exceptionally big nose, a deep almost masculine voice or something of the sort. This feature renders her unique and she carries it with such grace and confidence, never wants to hide or change it, and for that you admire her and wish her confidence would rub more on you. (Sarah Jessica Parker, Barbara Streisand and Joyce Meyer come to mind). However, there will always be haters and jealous people who’ll only see and mention this one feature disregarding the caring heart, commitment, strong personality or success she has.
