Eternity For Men

I’ve always loved Eternity. That soapy, clean, just-showered-with-expensive-bar-soap vibe? Timeless. Classic. Fresh as hell. But let’s be honest—the performance? About as strong as a polite handshake. The EDP tried to fix that. Same DNA, just turned up from whispering to clearing its throat. Better? Yes. Beast mode ? Nahh, Far from it I still love spraying this stuff though. And well. You better love spraying it. Like every hour or 2. I mean You really can’t hate it. Who wakes up and says, “Nah, I don’t wanna smell clean today”? Nobody. That’s who. Now retail price? Over $100? Ma’am... absolutely not. When she told me the price I didn’t walk away—I evacuated. But honestly, what fragrance is worth retail these days? I only pay full price when I’m cornered. Like certain Stronger With You flankers or Chanel, where discounts are just a rumor at best. Here’s the fun part: I scored a 6-oz bottle of the original EDT for $27 At that price? Say less. A few months earlier I found a 6-oz bottle of the green EDP for almost the same $30. But still did not stop me from also buying the edt again after decades. For $27 How often does that happen? Exactly. So yeah—I bought both. No regrets. Zero shame. Performance-wise though? Even the EDP could do better. You can’t overspray Eternity edt or edp. That’s impossible. You gotta spray like you’re mad at it. Skin, clothes, air around you—everything. If you don’t, it’s gone faster than your paycheck on fragrance sites. Clean, fresh, nostalgic, and still asking for just a little more muscle. Classic Eternity behavior. Now retail price? Over $100?

Guess I could sum it up it will do in between bottles of egoist platinum which last a little bit longer. But I could easily go broke buying Chanel the way I like to spray these 😂

I feel like I always say this, but it is fairly difficult to describe. As you might expect, it is in the vein of "generic-y" fresh/spicy men's scents of the 90's, like davidoff coolwater or fierce (in its vibe, not necessarily scent character), and definitely top few in my opinion. I like Fierce so much better (not really fair, that's maybe my favorite men's scent of all time) but Eternity is a similar vibe, only a bit more mature, but not overly so. Hard to believe, but women actually really like Eternity a lot. It's important to test it by wearing and smell how it is in the air during the day. It is very clean, fresh, and masculine (slightly spicy) without being shower gel-like or very floral or soapy. It's cheap enough to give a bottle a shot, and worth having in any man's collection if he wants to test a range of extremely wearable scents. It is a true classic, and a scent made for wearing. That's the key. Utterly versatile and universally liked if not loved, and at minimum tolerated. The performance is bizarre, because it starts out nuclear to me, but doesn't seem to push for hours and hours the way some similar scents might. I might be nose-blind, and to be fair it's been a while since I wore it extensively, but I would lose trace of it after maybe 4 hours (honestly my nose sucks for endurance and subtlety of presence, and I'll lose trace of a fragrance and get complimented hours after even that point). Anyhow, at its heart, this cologne is anything but generic and is underappreciated these days. I have heard several young women very recently randomly say that they specifically prefer Calvin Klein's Eternity in totally seperate circumstances, which baffled me because of how old it is. That should tell you that this stuff is not to be slept on.

Ahhh, repeating my scent memories from the 90s ... LOVE ETERNITY! I started wearing fragrances in the late 80s/90s (yes, I'm a mature man) .... and this was one of my favorites. Back then, so many fragrances of mine were stronger, spicier and darker. Eternity was my go to lighter/fresher scent. To me, it's a fresh classic, slightly soapy, light lavender/floral scent with a nice vetiver/musk/amber dry down. Regardless of how it's technically classified, to me ... it's a fresh, light lavender floral scent with musk. My other go-to for something fairly fresh was Azarro Chrome. IF you like Chrome then perhaps you might like this. Chrome is missing the lavender but the final feel and scent after a couple of hours is fairly similar. Chrome supposedly has tonka bean in it, however I do not smell it and it definitely is not a sweet scent ... neither is sweet. IF you are a guy who loves the strong trendy sweet, fruity, vanilla scents of today ... then perhaps Eternity may not be for you. But ... I love it! (PS ... lots of compliments and the ladies usually love it, too.)

Love the scent. I got 5 1.2ml CK testers and decided to get a bottle of Eternity EDT because it was awesome. I was smelling this one on myself for at the very least 3 hours, it was projecting quite heavily for about that long. it's actually a little bit too strong (I'm not complaining). The opening is not amazing (as for virtually everything else), after like 3 minutes the harshness goes away. Disclaimer: Eternity EDP almost made me puke. The EDT is infinitely better and sexier. Don't even think about getting the EDP version, stick with the cheaper and better option aka this one. I have to say it's a nice change from the sweet summer frags like Legend Spirit. What I like about this one in particular is that it's not soapy at all, unlike Azzaro Chrome and Nautica Voyage. The bottle is ok. Feels a little bit cheap though because of the thin glass and being lightweight but at least it looks classy and respectable. I don't really care if it's old, it smells great and that's what matters. 8.5/10 Awesome

By no means (is certainly not) this is a garbage pick. It is of great value, for 20 to 30 dollars and even cheaper prices in discount bins in stores, you can get yourself an everyday fragrance you can wear anytime of the day, though most recommended in the afternoon as it gives this Spring Season vibes that gives people the smell of nostalgia and happy memories. Real stuff in coming; Though the longevity is about 3 hours, the projection surprisingly is decent, about 2 feet of projection. People do make the mistake of forgetting to spray in your chest or in the collar of your shirt (in which are crucial placements for your fragrances' smell to strike people's faces) And since I did that, wow did it impress my Uncle whom of which has worn this in my earlier years of life (around 10 years old, I am now 18) when he did not have his baby yet. And as the name suggests, the fragrance is indeed a timeless masterpiece. Now buy it. Cheap, Classic, Nostalgic, and Beautiful to the nose.
