Euphoria

Euphoria by Calvin Klein (2005)

Released in 2005 and co-crafted by master perfumers Carlos Benaïm and Dominique Ropion (joined by Loc Dong), Calvin Klein Euphoria became one of the most successful designer feminine fragrances of the mid-2000s. Built around pomegranate, persimmon, black orchid, black violet, lotus blossom, champaca flower, mahogany wood, liquid amber, and cream accord, this Oriental Floral composition captured mysterious provocative femininity through a refined fruity-floral-woody approach. Twenty years after release, Euphoria remains one of Calvin Klein’s flagship feminine signatures.

Our interpretation captures the same iconic provocative feminine signature as a long-lasting Eau de Parfum, made in the EU.

Bottle size: 50ml · Concentration: Eau de Parfum (up to 40% perfume oil) · Made in EU

The Dominique Ropion Touch

Dominique Ropion is one of the most respected perfumers in modern fragrance, known for compositions including Frédéric Malle Carnal Flower, Mugler Alien, Cacharel Amor Amor, and countless luxury releases. For Euphoria, his approach paired with Carlos Benaïm created a fragrance that balanced contemporary fruity-floral character with the depth of refined oriental perfumery. The result became one of the defining feminine launches of the 2000s.

How It Smells

The opening is immediately juicy and slightly tart with pomegranate and persimmon creating a refined fruity introduction. There is an instant sense of mysterious provocative femininity.

The heart blooms with the soul of Euphoria: rare black orchid, dark black violet, sensual lotus blossom, and exotic champaca flower create an opulent floral bouquet that distinguishes the fragrance from typical designer feminines. The dry-down settles on rich mahogany wood, warm liquid amber, and creamy gourmand accord. A base that lingers on skin for many hours with sophisticated, slightly creamy, deeply mysterious feminine depth.
