Description
Calvin Klein Truth for Women is a refined and naturalistic amber-woody floral fragrance, released in 2000 by perfumers Alberto Morillas, Jacques Cavallier, and Thierry Wasser. It opens with a refreshing burst of green and citrusy top notes including bamboo, clover, bergamot, lemon, vetiver, and patchouli, which create a clean, dew-kissed impression. The heart reveals a lush floral bouquet of lily, peony, mimosa, silkwood blossom, and blackberry, anchored by a warm touch of sandalwood. It dries down to a softly sensual base of musk, vanilla, and amber, offering timeless elegance with a cozy glow.
Ingredients
Calvin Klein Truth EDP (100 ml) is built on a classic base of denatured alcohol, fragrance (parfum), and water (aqua/eau). Enhancing its texture and stability are ingredients like propylene glycol (humidifier), acrylates/octylacrylamide copolymer (fixative), and hydrolyzed jojoba esters (softener). The formula includes UV filters—ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane, and ethylhexyl salicylate—to protect the scent. It also contains aromatic components such as linalool, limonene, geraniol, hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde, citronellol, citral, farnesol, eugenol, isoeugenol, and benzyl benzoate—some of which are known allergens. To preserve the formulation, BHT (antioxidant) is included. Subtle colorants like FD&C Yellow No. 5 (CI 19140) and D&C Red No. 33 (CI 17200) round out the formula..
