Euphoria Blush

This is just a delightful little flanker released by the C.K. Euphoria line this year, 2020. What a grown up raspberry and rose cocktail of deliciousness! Brightness from the berry notes maintains its sharp loveliness far longer than I've had most top notes project. Sour notes are balanced by a white chocolate and cashmere wood addition. Sweet tones are not cloying, but poetic and purposeful. Patchouli in the base is not distracting and the white amber does not translate as synthetic. But, my favorite part, not withstanding its holistic longevity, is the floral in this perfume. Rose is one of the most demure rose scents I have encountered in a very long time. Jasmine and orchid hum softly, and all players seem in harmony supporting the main theme of macerated red berries. This is classified as a gourmand, but it is not heavy. It dances lightly and smells like a small forest niche, flush with life. There is not much Euphorian DNA, but that might be one of my favorite things about it. Euphoria and its Amber are strongly weighted by a woodiness and powdery orris component; which makes them great to wear in colder months. This perfume has an inverted affect to its counterparts. It is the sprite sister frolicking about in the spring and summer months - caressing flowers and kissing drupelets hanging, sun drenched and swollen by their own juices. This is the dew to the rain; the breeze to the sky. This is not what you wear when you want to be in a bad mood. As it prances and pirouettes a whimsical optimism, the wearer can't help but feel elated. And it is an utterly lyrical gift, in a year so wrought with suffering! This is C.K.'s silver lining, and I am grateful!

Let me start off by saying that the original euphoria makes me smell like a sweaty man. But this, THIS is the one. I haven’t done a blind buy in a while but I read one review that said it had a somewhat sour smell that I always lean towards. I don’t know why but this brings me back to my gap so pink days, the notes aren’t the same but it gives me that same bright fruity sparkly feeling. I literally love this perfume even if the longevity isn’t on par with a lot of my other fragrances. I do feel like I have to put a lot on in order for it to stay, but it’s such a light scent that it isn’t offensive if I overdo it. This is perfect for work, going out, date nights, etc etc. Also, while this may not last on your skin all day...it most DEFINITELY lasts on your clothes for days. It’s just all around beautiful and I will definitely be grabbing another bottle before I run out.

I will say first that I tried this today and it is absolutely stunning. It’s so nice, girly, but not young. It’s very much along the lines of bright crystal , addict 2, guess woman, all the pink fragrances that many brands have- I don’t mean to say that are all the same I just mean that they are all very inoffensive, money well spent, can’t go wrong all girls love them kind of thing. So I do love this, BUT what I find so very bizarre is that this in no way shape or form reminds me of “Euphoria” the original. I personally like when a collection within a brand keeps true to the original but with each new addition adds something slightly different, not a complete remake and model that is unrecognizable other than its namesake-and that’s obviously personal opinion and each to their own. I will absolutely buy this if I find it for a good price!!

This is NOT AT ALL what I would have ever expected from the CK Euphoria Line, but this is a much needed new take of the classic. This is fruity the first few seconds -like fruit punch kind of fruity haha-but it settles to this beautiful scent that I feel could be worn year round but definitely the spring summer would be best suited for it. It’s also office/outing friendly and inoffensive for sure. I love this just bought it last week but I loooove it!!

I just repurchased this, I believe for the third time :) and I fall in love more and more with this every time I spray it. It’s literally fruit punch and smells like a fruity heaven. If you enjoy really fruity scents than this is right up your alley! I don’t find it lasts super long but it’s decent, and if you get it for a good price than that makes it totally worth it!
