Perfume information

Description of the composition

The fragrance pyramid of Secret Obsession begins with sparkling top notes: nutmeg adds a spicy warmth, plum brings juicy fruitiness, and rose gives a delicate floral note.

In the heart of the fragrance, a profusion of white flowers unfolds: jasmine and tuberose create a rich and seductive accent, complemented by orange blossom (neroli), orchid and ylang-ylang for multifaceted depth.

The base of the fragrance is wrapped in warm and woody notes: amber and cashmeran provide longevity and softness, while cedar, sandalwood and vanilla add a cozy woody-sweet foundation, with a subtle hint of wormwood (artemisia) and iris for a finishing touch of sophistication, creating a complex and memorable composition.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance.

The fragrance truly catches attention. Bright white flowers create a rich bouquet that feels dense and sweet. However, thanks to a slight tart bitterness, it's not overwhelming. This scent leaves a pleasant impression. Really liked it
4/5

The floral scent is indeed bright and sweet. It's very powerful, with powdery notes and spices, but, frankly, a bit suffocating. Longevity and sillage are impressive, but sometimes you want something lighter. Overall, a feeling of POWER, but not always pleasant

The version turned out to be too intense, like a punch to the face. Spices, plum, and rose - all in one bottle. Unfortunately, definitely not for me
5/5

The fragrance truly surprises with its balance, such combinations of components are rare. It's warm, bright, and at the same time cozy, you can feel the femininity in it, but without excessive vulgarity. It's not just a perfume, but a real melody! 😊
5/5

The fragrance is simply stunning - warm, feminine, and incredibly alluring. On the skin, it unfolds magnificently, especially when you move, but on clothes, it might seem too sweet. Initially, you feel notes of plum and cinnamon, and then a nutty-sandalwood aftertaste appears. A real aphrodisiac! This is truly something special

I once stumbled upon this fragrance in some fashion magazine, like Glamour or Elle, and immediately wanted to try it. If my memory serves me right, it was sold at L'Etoile back then, and it was very bright, rich, and full of energy ✨
4/5

Ever since I first saw it in a magazine, it captivated me. I bought it almost immediately. The scent... it's like it transports you to a world of dates, with their fleshy texture and a slight iodized hint. You can sense a bit of prune, but spices clearly dominate here, and tuberose simply leaves no one indifferent. This fragrance could be called an intelligent oriental, without unnecessary pomp or loud statements. But, you know, there's a certain bitterness to it, as if it's trying to hide its true essence
4/5

This scent is a real mystery. It's like it envelops you, leaving behind a feeling of something unattainable. Notes intertwine within it, sparking a desire to explore, yet at the same time bringing pleasure

Once, when I was still a student, I accidentally stumbled upon a sample of this fragrance in a glossy magazine. I immediately felt that it was something special. I saved money for a long time, dreaming of buying it, but unfortunately, it wasn't available in the stores I knew. And now, finally, I bought it. How beautiful it is! Spicy and soft, it fills me with warmth with every breath. The fragrance truly attracts the attention of others. I can't quite figure out if I like it or not, but it definitely leaves an impression
5/5
5
This fragrance is a bit reminiscent of Freak by Illamasqua, but not so much in its scent as in the atmosphere and emotions it evokes. It truly intoxicates and makes your head spin, creating a mysterious and captivating feeling. Calvin Klein, without a doubt, knows how to create feminine fragrances. It's hard to describe it in words - it's a real extravaganza! Better just try it )
5/5

What an incredible fragrance this is! A true aphrodisiac that simply mesmerizes. I've never experienced anything like it with perfumery. Secret Obsession is truly unique! The first time I put it on and went outside, men of all ages, from 18 to 58, literally stopped to turn around and inhale this scent. It's simply magic! I feel like I'm on cloud nine!)))
5/5

This fragrance truly surprises with its nutmeg, which immediately plunges you into a world of vibrant spices. Gradually it fades, and in its place come floral notes, creamy softness, and sandalwood. It unfolds especially beautifully in autumn!!! A true delight for the senses!
5/5

I bought this perfume today and I'm simply thrilled! The fragrance is truly mysterious, as if it hides secrets within. It's so resinous and rich that you want to inhale it again and again to fully understand its essence. Very intriguing, hot, and original - that's for sure! The bottle is also stylishly designed, which adds to its charm. All in all, the fragrance is simply amazing!
