Calvin Klein Sheer Beauty is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2012, created by Carlos Benaïm and Sophie Labbé. Sheer Beauty opens with Red Berries, Bellini, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Peony, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Calvin Klein's Sheer Beauty carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Calvin Klein's Sheer Beauty might be called 'Sheer' for its fleeting nature as much as its delicate scent profile. A pleasant, unassuming fruity floral with a sparkling Bellini kick, it's a solid choice for those who prefer their fragrance to be a subtle whisper, though many wish it had more staying power.

This perfume's soft sillage and short longevity make it perfect for close-quarter settings like the office or gym, where subtlety is key. Its fresh, clean, and fruity-floral accords are universally appealing for casual daytime wear, though its light nature might struggle to make an impact on a formal evening out or a romantic date.

About

Sheer Beauty opens with a delightful, effervescent pop of Bellini and bright red berries, given a fresh lift by bergamot. This sparkling top soon softens into a delicate, airy bouquet of lily, jasmine, and peony, creating a clean and pretty floral heart. The dry down is a gentle, intimate blend of smooth sandalwood, powdery musk, and a whisper of vanilla, offering a soft landing to its initial brightness.
