Obsession Highly Recommended by Whom You Know-It's the Fragrance of the Fall Says Peachy Deegan!


Obsession is accurately named, as we have been obsessed with it for ages, absolute ages before Peachy was of voting age....its complex, sophisticated sense has intoxicated us with a positively exuberant spirit, ready to take on the cold weather, blizzards and all.  
Passionate, Powerful, and   Sexy, it makes every woman feel like not only she can conquer the world, but she will be the most ravishing scented in the room!

"I wanted to evoke the sensuality and ardor of an impassioned woman. A woman 
who allows herself to experience a romantic obsession and invites a man to do 
the same." -- Calvin Klein 

The 1985 launch of OBSESSION fragrance revolutionized the prestige fragrance business with its feverish intensity and irresistible appeal and all of this was not lost on Peachy Deegan, age 9 at the time and already a dedicated gallyvanter (We hope Calvin feels his marketing dollars were spent well-we think they were!). When Calvin Klein asked the question, “Who hasn't felt passion beyond reason?” he tapped into a special fantasy that any woman could relate to. A lasting and powerful experience that's as appealing today as it was at launch. 

OBSESSION fragrance. An intense and powerful oriental scent. OBSESSION is an intoxicating blend of florals and spices with an earthy, warm base; intensely feminine and long lasting, and earlier Whom You Know wrote on Obsession for Men.

Bottle design by Pierre Dinand. The round sculptured lines and sensuous curves are a modern interpretation of the Indian prayer stones in Calvin Klein's collection. Holding the bottle reveals its depth and smooth surfaces. Light hitting the crystal, reflecting a cool, amber glow. Every element is pure and elegant. http://www.coty.com/
