Eternity Intense

Calvin Klein Eternity Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Eternity Intense opens with Rainwater, Orris, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Osmanthus, Rose, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Musk. Calvin Klein's Eternity Intense carries a Favourite verdict, a musky-led wear.

This flanker is a divisive one, described by some as a hidden gem and "niche quality", whilst others found it utterly unwearable. Its unique, unusual iris-heavy character is far removed from the original Eternity, making it a love-it-or-hate-it affair.

Its moderate projection and unique, powdery iris character make it suitable for casual wear and dates, but perhaps too distinctive for some office environments. The less strong longevity also aids its versatility for daily use without being overpowering.

About

Eternity Intense opens with a cool, watery blend, quickly giving way to a dominant, buttery iris and powdery orris. Vanilla and elegant musks then emerge, weaving through the floral heart, while a subtle sandalwood adds a creamy warmth. The scent evolves from a curious, almost 'make-up bag' opening to a soft, comforting drydown.
