Pure Gold Euphoria Men

This is very good. It is unlike the rest of the line. It’s an oud you don’t have to wash off. An oud you can spray more than a half spray without knocking everyone out. It’s a slightly fresh oud that dries easily to a soft ambery sandalwood patchouli It’s unlike any Calvin Klein I’ve owned. It is the least like any other flanker of any other CK line. (Previous winner was Obsession Dark) All said 6hr solid projection. 10hrs soft. Inoffensive, office friendly, confident oud. While the sent might not be unique the fragrance itself is quite. I wouldn’t wear in warm weather but I’m sure it wouldn’t weigh you down if you did. It’s shines in fall. Great Value. Glad to have.

I enjoy Calvin Klein "Euphoria Pure Gold for Men" a lot, and one reason why I enjoy it is because it caused me to realize that pine (or pine needles) goes well with a rose/oud combination (designer oud at least). The oud aspect of it somewhat reminds me of Jacques Bogart "One Man Show Oud Edition" (which I do enjoy). I'm very glad that I got to have at least one bottle of Calvin Klein "Euphoria Pure Gold for Men": it is a good fragrance. It's one of my favorites from Calvin Klein, in addition to "Euphoria Amber Gold for Men" and "Eternity EDP for Men" for example. I do recommend this one, but I wouldn't pay too high of a "collector's item" price for it.

Sad to see this being ignored. Fantastic wearable oud scent. Longevity is good enough for me. People around me could smell this for 6-7 hours. I strongly recommend finding a bottle of this for your collection. I usually stay away from Calvin Klein Perfumes. This was a gift which I am very grateful for as I would've never discovered it otherwise.

I want to love this and I cannot. This foray into Oud scents was a dead end and I think I will only shoot for high-end Ouds from here if this is where the affordable Oud trails lead me. I'll be giving this away. Can't think of any occasion this would work. I have to say, the Oud used is fine, but the blend here has WAY too much saffron. It nearly doesn't make sense. Reminds me of my Tia's yellow rice smell held against heavy old man barbershop territory and it clashes in a bad way for me. More powder than rose, and that saffron just lingers like a nervous house guest who doesn't know how to excuse themselves. Since you're not able to sample these kinds of discontinued scents, they may be tempting to blind buy, but I have to say, I would never blindly buy this, even for $30. I own Euphoria Intense, and the Oud in that is much darker and pronounced, how you want it blended. EDIT: DID NOT THROW AWAY & HAPPY ABOUT KEEPING. My fragrance nose has evolved quickly and now that saffron is setting this into the stratosphere for me. I'm quickly growing tired of synthetics and freshies, and holy cow, this is the antithesis of those. Dry, rosy oud over pine needles and saffron, a perfectly blended oud, only hard to find!

IMO.....I really do not "get" the similarities of the above "reminds me of" list....to CK Pure Gold. Ok...some of them share the same notes....So. I do "like" CK Pure Gold for what it is. Mainstream....that is easy to understand and easy to wear....and likeable. The rose (?) and oud (?)....are "slight"...on my skin/to my nose. The vanilla provides a tad of sweetness....the cardamom and saffron....sandalwood for balance. Juniper and pine are subtle additions. Musky patchouli,I do sense in the dry-down. To add some "oomph" to this one...I layer the CK Pure Gold for women....with this. It adds sweetness and helps "lift" the notes ...if that makes any sense. Average/moderate performance.
