Product Description
What does Calvin Klein Defy Eau de Toilette for Men smell like?
Defy is one of the most anticipated perfume launches of 2021 and Calvin Klein's grand return to the olfactory red carpet. Three renowned master perfumers: Anne Flipo, Loc Dong, and Pascal Gaurin joined forces to create this fragrance, with Richard Madden serving as the fragrance ambassador. In the commercial, the "Game of Thrones" star showcases the iconic style of a laid-back rebel, clad head-to-toe in denim, as blue as his eyes, which stare defiantly into the camera lens. The composition itself is simple, echoing the classic, sporty freshness for which Calvin Klein is known.
Top notes: bergamot, lavender
Heart notes: vetiver
Base notes: amber
Defy begins with an essential, sparkling, natural note of bergamot, which completely dominates the opening minutes. It is soon joined by floral-herbal, aromatic lavender, which gives the composition a distinctive, refreshing Cologne character. This spicy, citrusy beginning is joined by green, dry vetiver, smoothing its sharp overtones with its dry, woody note. The balsamic, sweet, slightly smoky accent of amber further enhances it, warming the scent and giving it an enveloping, carnal character that unfolds beautifully in the warmth of skin. Defy is a very universal, modern everyday fragrance that is perfect for the office and for meetings with friends, but its classic elegance makes it also a great choice for more formal occasions.
