Eternity for Men Reflections

Eternity Summer's new release certainly does not disappoint. A surprising woody aromatic with a bitter and strange top note that is completely new to my nose. Once you are fixated on the mystery of the top notes, the chocolate comes through out of nowhere and settles into a place where it should be - not too strong, with just enough roasted earthiness to add depth that lends a rich gourmand feeling that fades off. I got stonefruits over moss and sandalwood a few hours later. It should be noted the chocolate does not stick around, and is more of an Andes mint. I love the direction Calvin Klein is taking their Eternity line, which seems to be releasing these flankers for all of Eternity. I personally do not mind, especially with how forward their last releases have been: a coconut spice bomb, followed by a minty watermelon classic, and now a decidedly-male absinth mint chocolate that really wears elegantly. There is a classiness in the blend here: the chocolate note, which often comes off as juvenile, comes across as really stylish due to the earthy supporting base. This is really a classic mossy cologne with an unexpected first act. The real trick? Can you wait for REFLECTIONS to show up at discount retailers for half price?

Just love the absinthe in it and how good it blends with oakmoss and dark chocolate/cacao notes. Very well balanced and surprisingly good!

Smells very similar to the new Bad Boy Extreme but fresher and better blended. Its very nice!!!

Rating: 8.0/10 Eternity Reflections by Calvin Klein was a blind buy for me, and honestly, to me, it smells nothing like the original Eternity fragrance, but in a good way. I picked it up at Ross for about $30, and at that price point, it was definitely worth it. The scent opens with a refreshing minty vibe that’s light, sweet and smooth, with subtle hints of chocolate. It reminds me of a creamy Mojito. Maybe it’s the color of the bottle influencing my mind, which btw, is a beautiful mint green bottle. But that cool, crisp, minty freshness really stands out. Performance isn’t its strongest point; projection and longevity are moderate at best. You’ll probably want to reapply every 3–4 hours. With that said, it’s an easy, relaxing scent, perfect for casual days at home or when you want something refreshing but not overpowering. What I appreciate most about Eternity Reflections is its uniqueness. It doesn’t smell like anything else in my collection, and that makes it special. If you come across it at a discount store like Ross, TJ Maxx, or Burlington, I’d say it’s definitely worth a shot.

Minty aniseed on the skin, creamy mint chocolate in the scent trail. It's fresh, bright and playful. After about half an hour, subtle oakmoss and woody sandalwood are noticable under the 'absinthe' and pull the fragrance back into a somewhat more grown up territory. Unisex. Moderate to intimate projection. The mint chocolate follows a half step behind you and turns some heads during the first few hours of wear. 6 to 8 hours longevity, it's just an oakmossy skin scent by hour 6 though. Edit: Topping up with a spritz every few hours throughout the day, has me smelling like a mint Aero by 6pm. This is good for moral.
