Euphoria Men Intense by Calvin Klein

I would Beg to Differ from anyone who chooses to believe that the Intense Version is an Upgrade of Original. Presumptions based on the Fact that both have Identical Top Notes are Completely wrong. The Different heart & base notes have given them Completely different Identities I experienced. It's very Young, Sexy & Hip. It's Got a Sweet & Spicy, Musky Watermelon opening which then transcends to an Aromatic Cedar Woody Drydown. Longevity is good.

I have to respectfully disagree with comments that Intense is better than the original or a stronger version of it.

CK Intense bears only token resemblance to original Euphoria. The opening and middle notes of the pyramid are almost identical. However, it is what is added to and removed from the base notes of original Euphoria that makes Euphoria Intense a totally different fragrance.

Gone are the beautiful Brazilian rosewood and suede accords. In their place are labdanum, oud, and mhyrr which give the fragrance a deeper, more pronounced sweetness that dominates the notes from start to finish. It's more of a dark, fruity sweetness. The fruity essence reminds me somewhat of Paco Rabanne "Excess Black" except that it is deeper and darker.

I do not mean to imply that Euphoria intense is not a great fragrance. I find it exquisite. However, I find regular Euphoria exquisite too. I have them both and if asked to choose between the two, I'll have to strike a different path and exclaim that I prefer original Euphoria over the Intense. It's a matter of personal preference but I really love the Brazilian rosewood and suede combination of the original.

Despite shared use of the name Euphoria, these two are not big and little brother. They are two entirely distinct fragrances. Consequently, the decision is not between Euphoria or a more concentrated version of it.

this is so much a better improvement on the original Euphoria for men. the intense version meshes nicely with the fragrance theme and packaging of the womens.

i have a feeling that originally they wanted to go with this version but instead choose the light fresh scented original.

it is a market shame that two fragrances now exist under the same name and theme - talk about confusing the average customers. my thoughts drop the intense from the name and discontinue the original and have this replace it!

Really nice, although it seems a bit as if CK were unsatisfied with the original Euphoria. One gets the impression that the original Euphoria hasn't been ready for release back in 2006, but rather rushed out. They surely improved that with this one two years later.

Nevertheless, one definite mixture instead of two scents that are essentially the same would have been a better idea.

High quality cologne, my favourite CK along with Truth for Men. All in all very high in ranking.

Very Sweet and sexy. No doubt this is the best from Calvin Klein. Smells expensive and extravagant. Love it!!

Dont be fooled by the CK brand name.

This perfume smells amazing and smells expensive. i bought it on 50ml and use it very sparingly.

Best worn with suits or when going to somewhere formal.

One of my favs.

pungent and sweet , thats about it , i liked it though , if u can tolerate it then ur doing just fine but be careful , this is not heavy , its pungent which makes it hard on a sensitive nose

minister smellgood

a nice and warm frag much more deep than the first which smelled like a unisex fragrance

like many ck fragrances it has great opening. watermelon with some spices. unfortunatly after those great opening it only becomes worse (but of course it is still good). dry down is only sweet vanilla on my skin. so it's typical evenign/winter/fall scent.

BlackAmberMoon

Surprisingly good amber oriental. Starts out quite sweet but becomes drier and more interesting as it progresses. Drydown is a nice cedar/musk. Smells both sexy and cozy. Good one to try if you're looking for a soft oriental.

I get compliments all the time when I wear this one. Euphoria Intense is unique and sweet, but still masculine. It has an impressive opening that leads to a pleasant and warm drydown. Great scent!

i love it! my female friends love the scent and i swear its like spanish fly to some girls when i go out.No lies its loved by many here

This opens smelling a lot like Euphoria, stronger, even better. But then on my skin it turn to this disgusting salty smell. Finally, there's only suede, suede, suede, literally, it smell like you're smelling suede with nothing added to it. Not a pleasant experience!

I was excited when i saw this. The original Euphoria was very low quality and didnot last on my dark skin. Also it was getting 'feminine scent' comments, so i stopped using it.

I thought that the intense version would last much longer, be a little manlier and would be a stronger scent with added perfume extract.

Well this turned out to be a very big disappointment for me. I found a much worse scent than the original. This is just as average quality as the original. Doesn't last, flowery feminine and synthetic.

like woah! what is that I smell. it's pungent and sweet. I can smell it fine because I know what I'm putting on, but other people cant tell.

I found the notes and composition of Euphoria fantastic but the quality was extremely low and it turned out to be a huge disappointment for me. The phases of the fragrance were complete in half an hour and the rest 1 hour was all about a cloying sweet smell. After this experience i swore to wait at least 1,5 hours after testing a fragrance and before buying it :)

I wondered if the quality was better with Euphoria Intense. Again the fragrance mesmerized me the moment i smelled it on my skin but faded to a sweet-sour smell in half an hour and made me want to wash it off immediately. This time i was wise enough to wait to see how the fragrance would evolve and did not waste my money :) I really miss the old CKs.

I love perfumes with cedar. They remind me of ancient epic times. My husband bought it recently, and whenever he puts it on, I feel as if some hero from previous lives popped in to say hi.
I like the introduction of the fruit-like flirtation, and then the firm and not too gaudy statement it makes. Some perfumes to me seem more eloquent than others. This one doesn't use many words, but the few it does, have an exclamation mark at the end.

I'm wearing it right now, and everytime I wear it I get so many compliments. On the opening it does smell kinda sweet but I tend to wear sweeter fragrances better than musky ones, but it drys down to a sweet vanilla type deal. This review has been approved by CYSM

I think it is way too sweet for a mens scent, even in todays trend. First blast is so filled with sugar, with a watermelon type fruity feeling, later it tuned down to a biscuit cacophony. I was looking forward to find the oudh out from it, but the patchouli overkilled everything. Unbalanced IMHO.

Leo

Hmm... The opening is sweet enough for me,but it is not as sweet as paco rabanne ultrared. It is getting spicier 5-10 minutes later. 2 thumbs up for the longevity!

slipcat

This cologne and Guess Suede seem very similar to me. I have a hard time telling the difference. What do others think?

guest_da_markos

i love opening soo much it is marvelous. deep & sweet but don't make u faint. after that is't so great but it's still very good

jonr951

my new fav scent and i cant wait 2 own it! it smells incredible! its very earthy and completely different and unique from anything thats out there right now! i love it so much more then the original euphoria for men! its a must have! im gonna stock up cuz sadly its a limited edition!

afraafra

a little similar to YSL l'homme but more intense.

guest_dunzki

Yes...I like the scent..I just bought my 100ml bottle of Intense Euphoria yesterday...It's my right choice...
