I don't know about anyone else but I'm so glad its Friday and the weekend is right around the corner. I'll see you tomorrow with another top 5 video. What is your favourite CK fragrance?
CK Truth is my fragrance that I like to wear that takes me back to the late 90s/early 00s, when those gray colored fashion mags with the scented leaflets were all the rage, and Issey Miyake, Roxy and Abercrombie & Fitch were everywhere. Love that soapy, leafy green basil signature. Puts me in the same mood as Montblanc Starwalker.
"Euphoria Amber Gold for Men EDP" is one of my favorite fragrances. I love it, and I'm glad that I discovered it. I plan to try some of the other ones you mentioned in this video. I also enjoy "Eternity EDP", but I hate "Reveal" for Men.
@@ranman671 Hi Randall. I purchased mine in spring of 2021, when it was in the $40-$50 range. That was right before many people bought up all the bottles which were still out there. If I were you, I wouldn't pay more than $80 for a bottle of it (i.e. if you find one). It looks like it's not available anywhere. It might come into stock at fragbuy or fragnet, but it would sell out quickly. It's a good amber fragrance, but there are a lot of other good fragrances out there (as you know). Good Luck.
@@regismonkton, would you recommend another cologne with the same fragrance profile. I'm not married to the Euphoria Amber Gold if I can get the same, or similar fragrance profile.
Chad! Great video. I don't own a lot of CK fragrances - back in the day I was rocking Obsession and Eternity. To me, the best CK fragrance is CK Shock.
I didn't want to make it so predictable by adding Shock so I hope I shocked a few of the watchers by not having it...see what I did there. Oh lord I have DAD jokes now.
I have to say you did a great job on your review on Calvin Klein. I have been wearing Calvin Klein for years. I was just about to move on from CK. You gave a fair assessment of CK Contradition. Its not a very sexy cologne and the longevity is spot on. I will follow up on your recommendations( Euphoria Amber Gold & Encounter Fresh) Thanks. MJ/ Fraghead
Glad to see this video. Always walking past most of these CK fragrances in the rack stores and never purchase. I will once I get others on my list but this video will be my starting point. CK Escape was the frag that got me in the game waaaay back.. Keep pushing great content!! ✌🏾
Ck fragrances always get a bad rap but there are a few I really liked over the years including some classics: CK Be and CK One before they got watered down. Euphoria Intense, CK2, Eternity Now are my current faves.
Great list, I would of had the OBSESSION on my list though, not only has CK never made a better quality fragrance, it still holds up today. The dry down is absolutely one of the best ever in the fragrance world...
Hi Chad, you look great in yellow, solid list as always... My top favorites from C.K. are, Amber Gold, Reveal, Eternity Aqva, I haven't tried Encounter Fresh... Greetings from Sunny Germany.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 I hear you Chad, my favorite day, and my favorite greeting, Have a nice weekend... So, have a nice weekend Chad, you and the family...
Escape was my favorite back in mid to late 90s in high school,better than ckone,eternity or obsession that came in the sets I used to get.I haven't smelt any of the Calvin Kleins that have came out in the last 15 years like europhia,life,man or the eternity flankers.I had a small bottle of obsession night years ago and it had a great scent,much better than the regular obsession I never really liked.
I remember those gift sets with all the bottles but I think they were splash bottles. They were just super small minis but that is like over a decade ago for me. I haven't seen them since.
I have CK Euphoria Amber Gold (great scent) and CK Man, CK2, Contradiction, CK Truth, Eternity Aqua (great for summer) and Obsession and Obsession Night... maybe more. Those come to mind though.
I'll get more CK fragrances. I fell in love with the brand as a teen. I'm not really into CK one, as a lot of people - and I'm totally into CK BE. Maybe cause of the memories. But not just cause of the emotional connection. It's just good. Doesn't appear on many people's lists though... Next to get will be CK shock, CK eternity aqua and one of the summer fragrances. It is funny, but I have little emotional connection to many of the top line products out there. I just ordered Dylan blue and I must say I kind of feel like I'm waiting for a hot chick right now Anyway, to repeat myself. It's true, first cut is the deepest so this 🖤 heart is for CK be 😢😂😆
There were 3 middle-east fragrance from Calvin Klein in the Euphoria line for men Liquid Gold (2014) Pure Gold (2017) Amber Gold (2018) I own them all, do you Chad?
@AGentlemansJourney77 Thanks boss i just watched it, dunno how i never saw that video! I think liquid Gold is my favourite from the line, I'm a sucker for that Saffron and creamy Sandalwood combo! Amber gold is amazing as well, it's gorgeous! I just purchased Pure Gold and should have it next week. I had to get it to complete the line, you know how we roll 🙂 One thing i will add is that the bottles on these Euphoria limited editions are beautiful! Very underrated line, and one i wish was still available.
It probably is but I am not sure. If you live in North America, you can pick it up from fragrancenet.com , fragrancebuy.ca , perfumeonline.ca , and fragrancex.com
I stopped buying ck fragrances They are so weak. I had Obsession in the early nineties and it had beast performance. I repurchased it in 2016 and got rid of it. Did not smell quiet the same and had no projection or sillage at all. And it still sells at Macy’s for a premium price. What a joke
Seriously diluted bottles of H2o Chad. Always pass on them, even at the discount shelf at shoppers. Case in point purchased Calvin Klein eternity EDP last year, and not really impressed. Longevity horrible. Still has some of the original DNA, but it sucks. My favorite was the classic Calvin ( tall square dark blue bottle with just Calvin written on the bottle). ABSOLUTELY amazing scent. Even Obsession really does not perform any more. Sorry, just my 2 cents
RUclips frag community are soo bias to expensive frags but act like they are all just about the smell... Liars Guarantee if amber gold was made by Xerjoff Naxos, Killian, initio etc this fragrance would be hyped nonstop.. its that good
The community has become quite pretentious and rather high schoolish with the trolls and gossip. That's why I pretty much stick to myself for the most part.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 best thing you can do is stick to doing you stay in your own lane and give the viewers real reviews shame the pretentious frag channels don't highlight real gems like this..
@@blacsheep19 that's what I do but the other day I chose to deactivate my personal FB profile because a troll decided to go on there and download an old photo of mine to pretend to be me on a livestream. Like I said this community is not just pretentious but also very juvenile with the high school behaviour and gossip.
I'm sorry, but your top 5 is an absolute joke c'mon mate!? 😆 If you really think those are the best fragrances from Calvin Klein, you either never wore the classics back in the day when the formulations were great and long lasting, or you've never even smelt the classics.. which is it? I have vintage versions of all the staple fragrances from CK, and they are all amazing in terms of scent and performance! For me 'and most people who know about fragrances' the best ones are 5 Escape 'Underrated' 4 CK One '90s in bottle' 3 Calvin (1981)💎 2 Eternity 'Legendary' 1 Obsession 🤴KING🤴 If you are talking more recent releases, these are the ones i would have gone for. 5 Reveal 4 Encounter 3 Shock 2 Obsessed Intense 1 Euphoria Liquid Gold I appreciate the videos, don't get me wrong, but please put a bit more thought into your content. I think the only reason you choose those fragrances is because they are the ones you know and own. If you knew all the fragrances from CK then you could of course give a informed list of the top 5 or whatever but i would bet my life you have not got any experience with vintage versions of the classics.. and you haven't tried loads of the other fragrances they have produced. Just a very blinkered overview of a house that deserves more respect 🙏
Is this a joke? How do you make a video about fragrances you neither own or know 🤷♂️ of course it's based on what he has and what he's using. Pump the brakes on the crazy a bit.
@@jeremyhinze8837 If the title and video was 'my 5 favourite CK frags' i wouldn't of bothered one bit, but to push the ones he did as the 5 BEST from Calvin Klein.. is a joke!
@@sotd6307 again, how can it be a "joke" if it's what he has, and what he likes? It's his channel, his taste, his bloody video. So you have different tastes, like different fragrances than him. Why not just say here are my favorites from the house and list them in the comments 🤷♂️
@@jeremyhinze8837 Why didn't he!? That was the whole point of my original comment. If he just said "these are my favourite 5 from CK" that would of been totally OK, but saying that they are the best is not fair to the other fragrances he hasn't tried.
I don't know about anyone else but I'm so glad its Friday and the weekend is right around the corner. I'll see you tomorrow with another top 5 video. What is your favourite CK fragrance?
CK Shock and CKBe...
It’s not in the top 5 but my fav is Ck Obsession.
CK euphoria men edt
CK Eternity Flame
Ck Shock
CK Truth is my fragrance that I like to wear that takes me back to the late 90s/early 00s, when those gray colored fashion mags with the scented leaflets were all the rage, and Issey Miyake, Roxy and Abercrombie & Fitch were everywhere. Love that soapy, leafy green basil signature. Puts me in the same mood as Montblanc Starwalker.
I wish it was back then...simpler times.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 I definitely second this😁
"Euphoria Amber Gold for Men EDP" is one of my favorite fragrances. I love it, and I'm glad that I discovered it. I plan to try some of the other ones you mentioned in this video. I also enjoy "Eternity EDP", but I hate "Reveal" for Men.
Thanks for watching, Regis. The Reveal is a SWEET BOMB that I don't like neither myself.
Can you please tell me where I can purchase Euphoria Amber Gold Men Calvin Klein for men

I appreciate it, man. Thank you. They got some solid stuff but I as of late they have been putting out some okay fragrances only.
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm a fan of Calvin Klein fragrances and have a blessed day

I haven't smelled that particular one in YEARS.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 I haven't either. I first smelled in around '92- '93.✌🏾
Ck fragrances always get a bad rap but there are a few I really liked over the years including some classics: CK Be and CK One before they got watered down. Euphoria Intense, CK2, Eternity Now are my current faves.
Why does CK get a bad rap?
Ck fragrances smell so good. If they had strong performance they would be some of the best around
Thanks for stopping by, Juju.
Great list, I would of had the OBSESSION on my list though, not only has CK never made a better quality fragrance, it still holds up today. The dry down is absolutely one of the best ever in the fragrance world...
I have a decant of that one. I was wearing CK Obsessed last night which is rather nice.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 I need to get my hands on Obsessed, I've not tried that one. I've been on a JOOP-ABSOLUTE kick lately...
Great list! Amber gold is amazing!
Thank you for watching, Alfred.
Hi Chad, you look great in yellow, solid list as always...
My top favorites from C.K. are, Amber Gold, Reveal, Eternity Aqva, I haven't tried Encounter Fresh...
Greetings from Sunny Germany.
Appreciate it, Ross. You have yourself a wonderful weekend. I am soo glad its Friday and just want to get this work day over.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 I hear you Chad, my favorite day, and my favorite greeting,
Have a nice weekend...
So, have a nice weekend Chad, you and the family...
Chad, your review prompted me to go on a hunt for cheapies. Found CK Man for $20!!
That's a great deal for sure.
Calvin Klein Euphoria Intense 💪👋👍🏽
Good choice. I got a bottle that was delivered about a month ago.
Wot no Obsession lol? - heard some good things about Euphoria so gonna check it out, thanks.
The Euphoria line is pretty decent.
Escape was my favorite back in mid to late 90s in high school,better than ckone,eternity or obsession that came in the sets I used to get.I haven't smelt any of the Calvin Kleins that have came out in the last 15 years like europhia,life,man or the eternity flankers.I had a small bottle of obsession night years ago and it had a great scent,much better than the regular obsession I never really liked.
I remember those gift sets with all the bottles but I think they were splash bottles. They were just super small minis but that is like over a decade ago for me. I haven't seen them since.
These frags are made from some of the best perfumers in the world, so - no surprise that they are stunning ( Q/P ratio)
Chad, it's a good list.
Thank you for watching, Ryan.
I have CK Euphoria Amber Gold (great scent) and CK Man, CK2, Contradiction, CK Truth, Eternity Aqua (great for summer) and Obsession and Obsession Night... maybe more. Those come to mind though.
Where did u get Euphoria Amber Gold if u dont mind me asking 😊
@@alixallen I picked it up right before it became scarce... online... can't remember which site. Fragrance Net perhaps.
Is truth good for summer heat?or is it too spicy and more of a spring scent?
I'd say more spring but if you want to wear it in the summer then I would suggest less sprays.
CK All / Eternity / Escape /CK2 ( great bottle design ).....not worth a mention ?
Unfortunately, I don't have those in my collection.
CK one/shock
Eternity
Escape
Obsession
Contradiction
Some good old classics in there for sure.
i love the way u sniff the perfume...lol
Sir does all these perfumes still in market or discontinued by Calvin Klein?
I don't think that Ck produces the majority of these scents. I don't buy retail but get my fragrances from online discount stores.
I'll get more CK fragrances. I fell in love with the brand as a teen. I'm not really into CK one, as a lot of people - and I'm totally into CK BE. Maybe cause of the memories. But not just cause of the emotional connection. It's just good. Doesn't appear on many people's lists though...

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
There were 3 middle-east fragrance from Calvin Klein in the Euphoria line for men
Liquid Gold (2014)
Pure Gold (2017)
Amber Gold (2018)
I own them all, do you Chad?
I own them all and Amber Gold is the BEST!
@AGentlemansJourney77
Nice! Do you plan on doing a video on Liquid Gold? You've done videos on the other two..

Which one smells best wear a sharp blazer daytime 🤔
I'd say Truth, Contradiction, Defy, CK Man, and Escape.
Nice video bro. You may keep the moustache. It suits you well 😀😀😀
I had to trim it down quite a bit. It was getting scratchy and not growing out like I was hoping. I still have a little one however.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 haha ok brother.
Eternity Aqua its the best
That's a very very good one.
Thanks 😊
Is CK Truth for Men discontinued already? Where can I get a genuine one?
It probably is but I am not sure. If you live in North America, you can pick it up from fragrancenet.com , fragrancebuy.ca , perfumeonline.ca , and fragrancex.com
@@AGentlemansJourney77 thanks so much! I will check it out.
You had Eternity EDP in the thumbnail, but didn’t review it
A little clickbait. You can expect that from me.

Amber Gold still performs well.
I understand what you mean.
Totally agree, ck truth was my favourite but now it performance is very week.
Chad, I'm waiting for the the Calvin Klein truth review, longevity and projection.
Its casual wears, spring season, and 6 hours of longevity. I will release the video some time this winter. I just got other stuff I'd rather put out.
first!
