The scent of Secret Obsession is three-fold, yet are all intertwined with a woodsy aura of mystery from “forbidden fruits” (exotic plum, mace, rose de damas) in the top notes, “exotic flowers” (egyptian jasmine, french orange flower, tuberose) composing the heart of the fragrance and “mysterious woods” (cashmere wood, burnt amber, australian sandalwood) as a subtle background.

Some may have heard about the controversial advertisement featuring Eva Mendes, actress and spokesperson for Calvin Klein’s Secret Obsession. Naked, in a black and white commercial, and lying amongst strategically placed crumpled sheets, a flash of nipple deemed this commercial too racy for mainstream American media. But public opinion has been labeling this as a well-executed publicity move, as controversy leads to free publicity which has resulted in hundreds of thousands hits on Youtube for the uncensored version.
