DOWNTOWN Calvin Klein Essential For Your Fall Fragrance Collection & Highly Recommended by Whom You Know. Even Uptown Girls Love It! Bravo Calvin Klein Also For Featuring Rooney Mara in the Campaign!!

down ∙ town:
it’s a mindset,
urban and original.
my own world, no rules.
it’s just me.
DOWNTOWN Calvin Klein
the new fragrance for her
even uptown girls will love it!
And they do.
Calvin Klein is one designer who has mastered the fragrance market, and it's always an exciting day when a new one is introduced to the CK collection.  The evocative scent of Downtown has a lovely edge to it that we believe is widely appealing, and the top on the bottle is genius-the hollow to it is so creative.  The pink is upbeat as well, bringing a positive feel to autumn. We admire Rooney Mara's work tremendously as an actress and think she is one of the best campaign selections Calvin Klein has made to partner with in their marketing history.  Downtown is a must to add to your collection, and if you're shopping for gifts this fall, it makes an excellent one.  It's absolutely the new modern classic from the brand we love, Calvin Klein.

Original – modern – real
