Obsession Summer

Calvin Klein Obsession Summer is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Obsession Summer settles into a heart of Bergamot, Woody, Patchouli, and Floral. Calvin Klein's Obsession Summer carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Don't come to Obsession Summer expecting Obsession. This is a light, fresh departure that left some fans of the original cold, but others found it a perfectly pleasant, if unremarkable, warm-weather scent with decent versatility. It's a fresh take, not a direct successor.

Its lighter nature and moderate sillage make it suitable for office wear without being overpowering. The fresh and relaxed character also lends itself well to casual outings and even light sport, however, its lack of strong projection makes it less ideal for formal events where a more impactful scent might be desired.

About

Obsession Summer opens with a bright spark of bergamot, quickly softening into a blend of delicate floral notes and a clean, almost aquatic musk. The woody and patchouli undertones provide a subtle anchor, preventing it from floating away entirely. It's a predominantly fresh and clean fragrance, leaning into easy wearability rather than the bold statement of its namesake. The dry down retains a soft, musky warmth.
