How do I know this is an authentic Calvin Klein perfume?

I was afraid, also, but it is definitely authentic, and I've gotten quite a few compliments on it. Good luck!

I've used this for years, it smells the same; is in the same type box and was sealed...I had no doubt it was authentic....If you don't like it the Amazon prime guarantee covers it...just return it...but I kept mine and it's my all time favorite...I wear nothing else..

I've bought it from top end department stores before and I've bought it twice through Amazon at over 50% off the Macy's and Elder-Beerman department store prices. The packaging was the same, as well as the bottle, and the scent lasts for hours, just like the department store ones I purchased originally. I'll continue buying it from Amazon until I buy one that seems fraudulent, but that hasn't happened yet!

I have used and purchased Obsession for over 20 years. I had no doubt about it being authentic. As with everything I have ever purchased from Amazon, they have a great guarantee. There is also truth in advertising - Amazon wouldn't be the great site that it is if they sold things that weren't what they said they were. I have never had a problem with anything I have purchased from Amazon.

Amazon is as reliable as you can get. I've been using Obsession for many years and it always smells perfect!

Yes, it's real. I've used this fragrance for years. The scent, the bottle and the packaging are exactly the same as what I've purchased in the department stores.

I bought it, and yes, it's real. The batch codes check out. You can see this by going to CheckCosmetic.net, clicking on Guerlain, and entering the code off the bottom of the box (also on the bottom of the bottle). It will tell you when the perfume was manufactured. This is the new formulation.

No, I do not find this to be a knockoff. The fragrance lingers and smells the way it always has. I've noticed that some reviewers have not had a good experience, but my bottle is the real thing.

First of all, if you have never smelled the original it would be best to do that at a department store so you can know how it is supposed to smell. I too love the original and know the difference because I've owned several vintage bottles. I took a chance on this one and am positive it is the real stuff. Your best bet is to go on Ebay and look for bottles like this one sealed in the box. I prefer the actual eau de parfum and saw what I was looking for on Ebay was quite pricey in the original 60's-70's style bottles I am familiar with. The only reason I did not purchase was because I became suspicious some unscrupulous sellers may be watering down those bottles because the real perfume came in a splash and spray type bottle. I would not purchase a splash style. My next purchase may still be an Ebay purchase in the EDP spray. No seller wants a bad rating and if I even suspect dilution will contact them for a full refund including shipping and will make them aware I will leave negative feedback if they refuse to comply. I hope my answer has been helpful to you. What I purchased here is the real deal and lasts long enough on my skin I am sure it is the genuine fragrance and perfume. If I have somehow been duped, the dupe is so incredible I have no remorse. ;) (I just looked at the prices on Ebay. Most are absurd. I had a great buy with this purchase on here.

It is real. My husband has used it in the past that we bought at Macy's and it smells the same. He gets a lot of complement when he wears it.

The best way is to know it from before. (years ago) OR find someone who does. Check quality of labels, tags and embossed names right in the glass bottle. If sloppy or missing where it is supposed to be would tip off a phony knock off scent. Also the manufacturer will dilute their own fragrance to save $ on the oil mix used to make that special smell.

Yes it does seem to be authentic and my husband is very satisfied with the fragrance.

100 percent real, just make sure you are purchasing the perfume that says" sold by and ships from Amazon"

With all my respect to the other people that answer is authentic, is not. I being using this fragrance since 1983. Even the bottle they send me is not authentic. Maybe you purchase from another vendor but the one I received is not authentic. It smell ok but not like the real one and it does not last long like the original.

This is certainly the original fragrance and not a knock off. I purchased this for my girlfriend after the one I bought at the department store for her went empty.

It's a very clean, light smell! In my opinion it's more of a perfume! I buy Calvin Klein Summer every year! I love it and I get compliments all the time!!

I can't say why someone can't compare the original one to this one. But I can say... Do these people truly know what the original is like? I bought a number of perfumes I always try to buy EDP instead of EDT. Some of them work with my body chemistry some don't. But because it doesn't work on my body I can't say its fake. I can say that the flower bomb I purchased here smells really good and I pinch it cause I want it to last me a very long time and the scent stays.

I'm pretty sure it's genuine. I've compared the new bottle we bought off amazon with the old one (almost empty) that I paid twice as much for from the department store and bottles are identical and cologne smells the same.

No, I think it's not original, thought the box and bottle was ok, but fragrance not last on the body more than 2 minutes. I can compare cause I used to buy this perfume in Italy many times

I have used perfumes from Givenchy for a long time, more than 20 years, and I can guarantee that the ones I bought on Amazon are originals. If they were not originals, it means that the manufacturer is doing a great job on duplicationBernard

Obsession has been my signature scent for more than 35 years, and I've emptied between 60 and 70 bottles of this perfume during that time. I'm certain that the bottle I bought through Amazon is authentic Obsession. The fragrance is exactly the same and it lasts as long when I'm wearing it as ever in the past. I could not be fooled by a fake.
