Calvin Klein Eternity Aqua for Men EDT Fragrance Review

Calvin Klein Eternity Aqua

Mainstream Monday – Sniffing a Popular Perfume

Why the heck and I reviewing something called Eternity Aqua for Men? Probably because I’m in a snarky mood.

Calvin Klein Eternity Aqua opens as a metallic cucumber melon. And something in this reminds me of green bell peppers and rubber bands. Some watery flowers and aluminum cans. It dries down to generic “man base” – cedar, musk and aromatic stuff.

Calvin Klein Euphoria Perfume Review

February 4, 2009

Calvin Klein Euphoria

I’m usually not a fan of Calvin Klein perfumes. None of the newer ones really work for me. However, I have a bottle of Calvin Klein Euphoria that I *actually* like to wear.
