I received a Sephora Scent Sampler set which contained a sample of Calvin Klein euphoria.  The scent sampler came with a certificate to get a full sized bottle of the scent I liked the best.  Euphoria was one of the maybes that quickly became a no from me.

The Advertisement: This scent is described as "An addictive oriental, euphoria is a contrast of exotic fruits, seductive black orchid and a rich creamy signature.  A modern interpretation of sensuality."

One little spritz and this smell was stuck on me for good.  It's very overwhelming and I can not help but smell it with every breath!  It's not that its a bad smell, it's just so strong.  I would say this one smells a lot like perfume - meaning that it has that cologne/perfumy scent that I used to associate with perfumes which is why I never bought one in the past.  Perfumes I like now have less of this "perfumy" vibe and more of a fruity/flowery vibe. 

I don't smell any exotic fruits, black orchids or creamy scent in this... really it's just the perfumy smell that overtakes it all.  I tried like crazy to make one of the scents stand out, but nothing does.  I guess that they couldn't name the fruits that are in it because you don't smell them anyway.    That said, if you like that perfumy vibe, you may like this.. but if you like a more suttle smell then leave this one on the shelf.

Yes it is very strong so it probably would! I sprayed it on a piece of paper while I wrote this review, and yesterday I went back to the table where the paper was sitting and it still smelled super strong. At least it's long lasting :-D I guess that's good for people who don't shower much. lol

Thanks for the headsup. I think this one would give me a super migraine.
