Imagine it's sometime in the 1900s, and you're trying to start a business in New York City. Well, that's exactly what Calvin Klein did in 1968, when he started the coat shop he called Calvin Klein Limited. In 1970, he added sportswear and women's lingerie to the shop's line. Seven years later, belts, shoes, scarves, sunglasses and other things were also added to the inventory. And seeing how popular jeans were becoming in the US, Calvin Klein created designer jeans. It's said that people bought 200,000 pairs of Calvin Klein jeans within the first week.
Conditions in the 1970s weren't favorable to start a fragrance line, but once the market started to recover and the inventory carried enough items to support a test, Calvin Klein perfume was launched. The experiment was tremendously successful. Designated as "America's Best Designer" in 1993, Calvin Klein stands for high quality, consumer-oriented products.
In 2005, Coty, Inc. of New York bought the Calvin Klein fragrance licensing agreements.
Many Calvin Klein perfume and cologne products, including CK One and CK Be, appeal to both genders. Different years saw Calvin Klein Eternity, Obsession and Escape come onto the market as both men's cologne and women's perfume. These fragrances were well-executed and different than everything else that was popular when they were released.
Based on a blend of fruits, spice and amber, Calvin Klein Eternity has become a popular daytime Calvin Klein perfume for women. After the success of Calvin Klein Eternity, Eternity Moment was launched as a follow-up. Calvin Klein Eternity Moment is a lighter, flirtatiously floral blend of water lily, pomegranate and other scents, including a touch of musk.
Calvin Klein Euphoria for women came on the scene in 2005. Persimmon and pomegranate were the main highlights of this unusually deep scent. Euphoria Blossom for women hit the market in 2007, with the scent of things like apple, lotus, and black orchid blending to make a feel good, rich floral perfume. The latest fragrance for women is Beauty, introduced in 2010 and created by Sophie Labbe. A blend of such scents as jasmine and cedar makes Beauty more of a complementary fragrance than a deep, seductive lure.
Calvin Klein - both the man and the company - is a remarkable success story. Despite somewhat rocky times, CK is a trademark that's recognized throughout the world for quality and commitment.
