Calvin Klein launches a new edition of Beauty fragrance from 2010 named Sheer Beauty. The original evokes timeless beauty and elegance, while the new edition turns to young women and emphasizes naturalness, self-confidence and charm.
The composition is floral – fruity, opening with notes of bergamot, red berries and peach Bellini. The perfume’s core includes flowers of peony, pink lily and jasmine. The base is velvety due to accords of sandalwood, musk and vanilla blossom.
The bottle is designed as its predecessor, refreshed with pearly shades of blush color. The face of the fragrance is model Daphne Groeneveld. It is available from January 2012 as 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette.

at 1st try during hot afternoon..the smell is almost non existent. too soft. 2nd test in an air cond. room...reminds me of some Victoria's Secret (Gorgeous etc) and the drydown is similar with Oriflame Sparkle in Paris. it's non outstanding.
I'm not a huge fan of CK but i did enjoy few scents of this designer... Especially One and the discontinued Obsession Sheer ... Too bad recent CK fragrance releases are so unforgivably bland.
This one smells like 3 star hotel 'no name' toiletries, clean, vaguely flowery, somewhat pleasant and absolutely indifferent. I do like clean, shampoo-like scents but this has no projection and no one (including myself) could smell it unless rubbing their nose directly to the 'affected area' .
If it was 15x stronger, i would give it a go... Or maybe not.
I never appreciated this fragrance until today. My bottle sat on my desk untouched for months because I didn't like it much. The smell was flat. It was a blind buy. I kept it for a lazy non-event day such as today so it won't go to waste; and got surprised by how pleasant it smelled. The sweet medley of fruits and flowers; mild but there. I gave it a shake before I sprayed.
A fresh fragrance. I detect a nice mix of flowers, some sweetness hiding behind that freshness(maybe vanilla?) and, sadly, the sharpness of something sour and sinthetic in the background which I just can't stand, as it spoils the whole experience for me. Shame: for ten minutes I thought I might like it.
I agree that this perfume is very watery and light. It's definitely not worth the £30+ or however much it was. Really boring, not unique, forgettable.
Smells suprisingly masculine or unisex to me as its such a feminine bottle, colour, name etc
This one is far too aquatic for me. I smell cucumber and watermelon in the topnotes, and the heart is mainly peach with a hint of white flowers. All very watery and light. Sheer and fresh, sure, but equally unoriginal and forgettable.
I'm in love. The scent is so delicate and alluring. Sweet but not overpowering. Fresh but not citrusy. I would make it my signature scent but its lasting power is terrible. Gone within an hour or so.
I love this perfume. It is elegant and graceful - there is a touch of masculinity to it, almost like a refined and feminine CK One. Just the right amount of sweetness (not too much). It doesn't last hours on end, but I bought a rollerball and cannot stop applying it through the day. Makes me feel like Grace Kelly in the summertime. Gorgeous.
The original Beauty was a nice scent, real interesting, Sheer doesn't come close, it is diluted, a pink scent , it isn't anything special. I don't really like it, I gave it to my mom who likes it. If you like delicate sheer florals this is an option, or for a young girl ' s first perfume, for me I just can't smell it , it isn't making a statement at all. Unfortunately boring.
This is an uplifting floral scent. It's commercial but it's very Good!
Perfect scent to Begin your Day. It's like wake up on the Morning and open the Window to a fresh perfumed garden.
Perfect Office scent too. I always Receive many Compliments, and in the end of the Day, this scent is still there, but with a very pleasant light smell.
A very Good Surprise. If you search a fresh-luminous floral, a very simple and Good One for your everyday Life. This is CK Sheer Beauty.
Good Luck!
I'm not a CK fan, but I liked this one.
Moderate sillage and, in my skin, it lasted quite a bit.
I live in a tropical country, so, for me, it's not a summer sent.
It was a pleasant surprise for me.
Very light scent ,i like it but can't smell it after 1-2 hours.
I already used this perfume a few times, and I like it, but after like... 2 hours I didn't smell it anymore.
This scent is perfect for girls and women. Very good!
i've got this for my second anniversary. my husband think this fragrance is very seductive and perfect for our sexy time. in my opinion, husband like it then spray it on. however this fragrance remind me of charlie white from revlon but this one is more on the softer side. if you want a cheaper version you should get charlie but if you want a better longevity you should get this one.
Does anyone know of any stores that carry this? I am finding it hard to locate in shops to sample it. I like the original Beauty and I am very eager to try this.
A light and beautiful fragrance! I've tried it only few time wit a little sample I had and each time I couldn't smell it after only few hours. I was wondering if its because it suits me so well or it's simply weak...?
very commercial, nothing special
Sheer Beauty by Calvin Klein may be severely lacking in originality but that doesn't make it any less pretty. This simplistic and fresh floral blend is perfect for Summer and compliments almost every skin type.
Although I prefer the original Beauty, this sheer flanker has many likable qualities. For starters, it's inoffensive, so women that aren't fans of anything too 'perfumey' are sure to love this. Another positive aspect is its fresh and clean approach. To my nose it smells like an expensive floral shampoo.
Sheer Beauty is not a fragrance that will blow you over backwards, but it is very pleasant and wearable. Both my friend and I enjoyed this fragrance when we smelt it together a few days ago, so it has both of our ticks of approval.
The bottle for Sheer Beauty is really quite girly and fun. I would proudly display this bottle on my dresser.
The main notes according to my nose are as follows; fresh jasmine, green, zesty bergamot, musk, sandalwood and a subtle hint of red berries. I unfortunately couldn't detect the peach bellini accord on my skin.
If I had a bottle of Sheer Beauty, I honestly don't think I'd wear it very often. I'd save the bottle for Summer, but would probably forget about it when the weather is most appropriate. I would recommend that you buy it only if you truly love it and know that you'll wear it often.
Blind buy that I regret. I thought I'd like it because the votes on here say it smells like Rumeur Rose 2. There is a vague similarity but this one has a bitterness to it. Something like sour berries. Completely disappears at record speed.
when i wear it i always get compliments for my perfume...i've been told i smell like summer...
when I smell this I always think of fresh morning breeze and a woman wearing nothing but men´s white shirt with way too long sleeves - looking absolutelly fabulous and feminine..
Very fresh, soft fragrance yet very feminine. Never thought I'd feel so attached to this. Love it now. This is the kind of fragrance that you give the personality to it and make it special to yourself.
A lovely light, fresh skin scent that's great for casual and professional wear and particularly good in hot weather. The notes I notice the most are bergamot (top note), peony, lily and musk (middle notes) and more musk, vanilla and sandalwood (base notes). It's a very dry and clean perfume, not sweet at all, and the base notes give it a bit of sensuality. Lasts for about 3 hours on me before it starts to fade but it has a habit of appearing to fade and then reappearing with subtle wafts of musk and vanilla. I usually respray after 3-4 hours which isn't too bad for an eau de toilette and it's fairly inexpensive for a high end perfume so I don't mind reapplying.
woww!soo unique so beauthiful,so delicate i want
Disappointing and flat. Gave it away.
This is a lot like Mariah Carey's Lucious Pink, however with a slightly fresher, more masculine feel to it . On me there is a slight 'peppery' spicy kick to it also. In my opinion this is truly unisex and could easily be worn by a man. As the name suggests this is not at all heavy or overpowering. All in all, this is pleasant and fresh but nothing special.
I like it because it´s so light and fruity on me. Suitable for women but for girls too. Just one problem is longevity. Nothing. Maybe 5 minutes. I know that some frags from CK have poor longevity..
If it had longer staying power I would buy it.
Give it a try. Maybe it could stay longer on you.
:-)
This smells fresh, like a toned down version av Mariah Carey's luscious pink, just fresher. But its not like the first beauty:(
I'm currently looking for a light scent for summer. I asked for suggestions and the beauty counselor at the store made me try this. On the paper, it wasn't so bad so tried it on my wrist. After a while, I tried smelling it but couldn't quite detect the smell so asked her to spray once more. Five minutes later, as I smelled it, it just intoxiated me! Very harsh chemical like! As I looked for the notes, later on, it surprised me 'cos it's apparently fruity which are often sweet. This was far from it!
It's so generic, lacking of personality, easy to forget, comming from a big fashion powerhouse that I am now quite more respectful to shampoo, air fresheners, machine washers soap's fragances.
And soon will be reviewing them in a blog like this one.
Light, fresh, well blended skin scent, perfect for spring and summer. Yes it's a bit boring but it's also very pretty, as is the bottle and the colour. Less sweet and fruity then you would expect from the notes. This reminds me of Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh without the raspberry/pear/litchi notes (and the juvenile bottle top). My new summer scent!
EDIT: Also reminds me of YSL Young Sexy Lovely.
Tried the other day on wrist .thought it was lovely ,soft floral with a refreshing fruitiness .Took a second spray and went on my way ...the dry down become very sharp synthetic and annoying !Shame because it had promise at the start .
Pretty but weak, quickly gone. A lot like Beauty of CK. Not a favourite.
Trevlig men svag doft, bleknar bort fort. Liknar Beauty CK ganska mycket. Ingen av mina favoriter.
Like Chance Eau fraiche this is very generic. Pretty, but nothing new or unusual, just no distinctive personality.
I guess CK were aiming at a Chance Eau Fraiche type fragrance that would please everyone - any age, any fashion, any weather...anyone else find this one a little Zzzzzzzz?
Instead of being universally appealing (like ChanceEF) I find SB a bit middle-of-the-road, banal, bland....dare I say it, down-right-dull.
This does not mean that Sheer Beauty is unpleasant in any way - it really isn't. SB is nice & safe & as pleasant as a clean & fruity shampoo, a £1 body spray, a spring-flowers room deoderiser....but who is going to part with good money for that? Not me.
To break it down: I can easily detect that generic CK lemon-butter-biscuit base (found in CKin2U et all) with a thin, watery-red-berry note & an all too familiar sharp-floral with a touch of jasmine. A high-pitched, cleaned-to-a-bleach-white synthy musk whines like tinnitus from first spritz to dry-down. There is a strong alcohol finish to this scent - not far off a cologne - with a sour, wilted stems edge. Add a shot of some aspartame-filled bitter citrus drink & you just about have it.
Lasts a few hours with a tame projection & not much development - lasts gasps are of a sour, washing-powder musk.
So who will buy it? Those who need a clean, unobtrusive scent for work....perhaps. Chanel-worshipers .......possibly. People who are a little confused by scent & enjoy the safety of the body-spray.......Zzzzzzzz. Sorry, I just lost interest.
Tried this the other day. At first I really liked it...but five minutes into it...not so much. I find the fruit overpowers the flowers, which is not my preference. I think I like the original better.
I do like Sheer Beauty better than the original, although I definitely don't like it enough to buy a bottle. It's basically a simple, light jasmine scent brightened a bit by tart fruit and anchored by warm musk and sandalwood. Surprisingly, it isn’t sweet. I was expecting, from the bellini and red berry notes listed, that this would be on the sugary side. But the bergamot and peach bellini actually add some nice tartness. The jasmine is still the most prominent note, as it was in the original Beauty. Many CK scents have a slightly masculine, cologne-like feel for me, and this is no exception. While I have to agree with the majority here that this fragrance isn't anything exciting, I do think it's better than the original Beauty (which I found to be extremely bland and screechy). Sheer Beauty has a citrusy bite and slightly masculine drydown that make it a hint more appealing.
I have been waiting to test Sheer Beauty for a long time now and I was excited to see it today in a store.
The scent was exactly what I was expecting: soft, nice fruity floral. And as I tought from the notes already: VERY similar to Mariah Carey`s Luscious Pink. They share the notes bellini, bergamot, pioni, musk and sandalwood. The different is that LP has Tiare flower and Lily of the valley. And SB has Jasmine, Lily and Red berries. I don`t really smell the berries, so I don`t think I would separate these two easily...
That beeing said, I really like this! It`s not a masterpiece or original, but very lovely and easy to wear. I might even get a bottle...
Surprised by this one, much better than the original Beauty which did nothing for me.
On me, the pink lily emerged ahead of the subtle florals, and with only the faintest hint of berry. A bit like a cross between Eclat d'Arpege and Sensi. This one, is worthy of consideration. Lasted 4 hours.
It's a nice, clean scent. Nice as in not annoying, not stinking. But it isn't beautiful or good either.
I can't really make out any notes.
Sheer Beauty smells exactly the same as so many thousands of other perfumes.
Strong alcohol scent, fresh, clean, with a synthetic interpretation of flowers.
It's not offensive, not a big "in your face" scent. It's just the smell of a deodorant.
Not horrible, not extremely good. Just simply not worth your money.
I was SOOOO inspired to test this one, because it is told that it is very like Chanel eau Fraiche, as this is one of my favourite perfumes, I tested today Beauty Sheer....WHERE IS THE SIMILARITY????????? Beauty has nothing to do with Chanel eau fraiche,can't see nothing in common, except that Both of them are fresh fragrances and that's it.
Will not buy, nothing special...fresh, light , neutral scent.
Very nice;fresh and young smell but I am disapointed.Ck sheer is the same as my favorite Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche.Has alsow a tint of Sensi White Notes by Giorgio Armani.Two of my favorites in One Ck Sheer.I dont understand why souch a great company like Ck makes reamakes of others best selling perfumes.Shame on you dear Calvin Klein.After Euphoria all Ck fragrances are disapointments.
very light and floral. nice but vaporizes so easily.
Boring as Hell...
No more interesting than the utterly mediocre Beauty. It's fleeting, sharp with no natural softness and, yet again has that generic synthetic 'freshness' which seems to take the starring role in all hastily cobbled together modern scents. The colour is pretty but that's it. I cannot actually pick out any notes at all. Buy a nice shampoo and deodorant to obtain a similar effect more cheaply.
Calvin Klein Company dreamed of a fresh fruity frolal fragrance, and with Sheer Beauty they got it! Unfortunately, the scent is almost a full copy of Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche, maybe less sparkling and citrusy.
