About this deal

I wore this extensively throughout high school, and remembered it as being soft and warm with a kick of spice. Calvin Klein Contradiction Eau De Parfum (100ml) is a floral, feminine women’s perfume from the iconic US fashion house. My dilemma is whether I should spray half of my bottle at once, survive the "medicine smelling" period and enjoy the perfume for the rest of the day or spray just a little bit and not feel it at all? I had this years ago and absolutely LOVED it at the perfume counter and on me, but, unfortunately, the scent just did not last. In the beginning I really hated it, thinking it was: cloying, generic floral, bitter, annoying, boring, etc.

My regular guy nose characterizes this to be (on my skin in the dry down) a lighter version of Xeryus Rouge Givenchy or Xeryus Rouge after 2-3 hours, which sometimes is exactly what you want. The actual CONTRADICTION of it is that according to a number of reviews men find this irresistible, while there's absolutely nothing obviously feminine in it!I would class this as a woody spicy fragrance with a hit of the eucalyptus also which gives it a very slight men's cologne-ness to it which I love! As it dries down the sandalwood, musk and tonka soften that initial cold blast, but in a very pleasant way. This can easily be worn by people without discriminating tastes, but fragrance collectors will likely avoid it.

This is why we have the options at the bottom of the page to voice our OWN opinions on what scents suit what style. Contradiction by Calvin Klein Eau de Toilette for Men is a spicy aftershave that blends notes of Sandalwood, vetiver, nutmeg, lime, coriander, ebony and sage along with amber scent.I can't reconcile the contradictions of CONTRADICTION, but I like it nonetheless and will continue to wear it now and then. I've tried other perfumes with the tea-tree residue, and I've been left with the two things both present on my skin and 'fighting' each other. If you like jasmine and sandalwood and daring, interesting, sweet with savory/woodsy compositions, get yourself a big bottle of Contradiction while you still can! Sobelia invites you to discover a large range of more than 4,500 perfumes from well-known brands such as: Kenzo - Loris Azzaro - Jean Paul Gaultier - Lolita Lempicka - Hugo Boss – Calvin Klein – Paco Rabanne – Burberry – Lancome. I've never smelled eucaleptus in a perfume and I must say that this perfume is not what I imagined it to be.

It was fantastic, although smelled also of the magazine's ink and paper, and that's how I remembered it.Please read the full reviews and consider your own needs and preferences before making a purchasing decision. This perfume only works on me in cold weather, but when that time of the year comes, I enjoy it very much!
