The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Euphoria Bold Elixir by Calvin Klein is a new Oriental Floral fragrance created by Carlos Benaïm, Caroline Dumur, and Domitille Michalon Bertier in 2026. This composition opens with the bright and fresh notes of jasmine, leading to a heart of smoky orchid that adds depth and intrigue. The base features sun-dried vanilla from Madagascar, which is roasted to reveal deep and intense aromas, complemented by oak wood for an earthy finish. It's a bold and sensual fragrance that embodies confident sensuality.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to pulse points for a lasting effect. The sun-dried vanilla is intense but stays close to skin rather than filling a room. Best suited for evening or special occasions when you want a warm, enveloping scent.
