Boots has cut the price of the Calvin Klein Eternity Moment For Women Eau de Parfum 100ml from £98 to £39, offering shoppers a saving of £59 on the floral best-seller. The deal is part of a wider promotion at the retailer featuring a large selection of designer perfumes at half price or less.
Fragrance notes and customer reviews
The fragrance opens with top notes of lychee, guava and pomegranate flower, leading into heart notes of pink peony, passion flower and numphea. Its base combines musks, rose wood and raspberry cashmere, and shoppers say the scent lasts well throughout the day, often attracting compliments.
On the Boots website, Calvin Klein Eternity holds an overall rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars. One shopper commented: "I tried this perfume as I like Eternity (original). I received a lot of compliments from my friends and also strangers as to how nice it smelled on me. It was also long lasting as I could still smell it on my skin up to eight hours later."
Another reviewer said: "I bought this perfume while it was on offer, and use it most days when at work. It has a lovely, fresh, floral scent that lasts well but isn't overpowering."
Mixed opinions and other offers
Some shoppers, however, found the fragrance too light and floral for their taste. One review reads: "Not what I expected smell wise compared to the original Eternity, I am unsure on this one as it smells very floral almost like Marc Jacobs Daisy. I think it will take me a while to get used to this scent. It would not be one of my favourite smells but I will wear when running low on my other perfumes that I love. This might suit a teenager."
Elsewhere, LookFantastic is offering the Dolce&Gabbana L'Imperatrice Eau de Toilette 100ml at half price, reduced from £93 to £46.50. This makes the 100ml bottle cheaper than the 50ml size, which currently sells at full price for £69.
The "striking" Eau De Toilette is described as a fresh daytime option, blending exotic fruits with bright pink florals and a musky base. It opens with rhubarb and red currant, with a heart of pink cyclamen and fresh watermelon, and base notes of musk, sandalwood and grapefruit wood.
For gift seekers, the Penhaligon's Joyous Discovery Set - Scent Library Gift Set 8x2ml is available for £35 at Sephora. Inside the green and red striped box are eight 2ml sizes of the brand's best-sellers, including Halfeti, Luna and Empressa. A more elevated option is the Ladies' Fragrance Collection Set (or Men's) for £50, which includes five best-sellers in 5ml mini bottles that resemble the full-size versions.
