Eternity Purple Orchid by Calvin Klein

I don't particularly care for CK perfumes, but this one is different! In fact when I was looking for a 'tropical' perfume for my caribbean wedding, this one is the one I picked. Very exotic without being over done, and has great staying power! Love it!

I have to try this scent.I love purple colour, and judging by the reviews I just have to have it.

Very light, demure, feminine for sure..
I could not enjoy it until the top notes wore off. It wasn't very interesting until perhaps one half hour had passed. Then I could really feel that great composition that is a Floral Woody Musk- gentle, intriguing, lovely..The freesia is there, loud and clear, the orchid is faint. The original Eternity is still recognizeable here (unfortuneately). As for the base, it seems to have vanilla in it, but it's not too heavy... It must be result of the mix of (very artificial smelling) almonds,
musk, and the woodsy notes (perhaps cedar and / or Brazillian rosewood). I am not too impressed by this scent.
For its positive points- it has the CK style, and it's a delicate, unassuming, possibly classy, "nice" floral.

Purple is my favorite color so I'm always looking the the perfect purple scent. I didn't care for this one even though I loved the name and the bottle. I was expecting more floral and all I got was super sweet citrus and woods. And what is it about CK perfumes? Are they all so teeth-achingly sweet? Maybe it's just the Eternity line that's like that.
Oh well, the search continues.

Oh, what a beautiful orchid scent! So subtle, light, but not adolescent. I should say it's kind of sad scent, not joyful. Like purple colour itself. Gentle and melancholic. For spring and summer days.

Ahhh! The wonderful world of PURPLE*ORCHID! This perfume brings back so many wonderful memories. I still remember the day I recieved the giftset one summer when I was alot younger. When I first smelled it at Macy's, the aroma of this bottle of juice drove me absolutely wild.

From the dark purple color of the perfume bottle, I was expecting a heady, sexy, spicy fragrance, but Purple Orchid was nothing like that. The opening floral-fruity notes assaulted my nose in the most pleasant way, taking me along a path of summery goodness. Plums, orchids and freesia flowed beside me, and then around me, and then enveloped me as I stumbled into a decadent garden encompassed by time. At the end of the day I gladly welcomed the woodsy drydown as the scent lingered on and lucious florals and a hint of ripe fruits decided to hang around also.

I haven't smelled Purple Orchid in years, but I still haven't forgotten how beautiful it was and how delightful it was to wear. I can't help but think about thick, lush and ripe purple grapes surrounded by purple orchid blossoms when I smell this. In my opinion Purple Orchid is one of Calvin Klein's better scents. It's pleasant, romantic and ideal for the summer.

What a beautiful fragrance! How I missed this I don't know, this is so much better than org Eternity in my opinoin. I love the woodsy notes I get from this, its very floral but in just the right amount I like. I don't like big bold florals as they give me a headache, this is made just perfect for me. Love it

It was a gift from a friend. Nice and floral, but not my thing. Maybe too floral for me... And I don't like the bottle either, plain and thoughtless, it would take about 5 minutes to create something like that.

P.S. The fragrance is discontinued.

Not very complex but great for a change of summer perfume - I keep it in my travel bag so to use it once in awhile is perfect but because it is so simple. You would not want to wear it everyday.
