Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Secret Obsession EDP
This one's a proper Marmite scent, isn't it? People either adore its spicy-woody warmth or wrinkle their nose at what they perceive as boozy, dusty plum. Not a safe blind buy, but if it clicks, it's a surprising gem.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Quiet Fantasy For Women EDP
Quiet Fantasy chases Calvin Klein's Secret Obsession - an exotic plum-and-mace opening into a tuberose-and-jasmine heart over warm amber, vanilla and woods. Reviewers call it a touch lighter and more balanced than the spicier original, but the sensual oriental-floral character carries.

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
