Calvin Klein Escape Eau de Toilette 50ml is a fresh, fruity-floral classic launched in 1991, composed by perfumer Claude Dir. Designed around the idea of a getaway from everyday life, it opens with apple, mandarin, lychee and chamomile, drifts into a soft floral heart of peach, plum, rose, lily-of-the-valley and jasmine, and settles onto a clean base of sandalwood, amber, vetiver, oakmoss and vanilla. Houses in the recognisable etched-glass Calvin Klein flacon.
About Calvin Klein
Founded in New York in 1968, Calvin Klein helped define minimalist American style — the white t-shirt, the perfectly cut jean, the unbranded look. Its perfumery line drove the modern shift toward clean, transparent fragrance: Eternity (1988), Escape (1991), CK One (1994) and CK Be (1996) became cult bestsellers and remain reference points in modern feminine and shared scent.

Who it's for
Escape suits women who like fresh fruity-florals with a touch of classical depth — those who find pure modern florals too thin, but pure orientals too heavy. It is at its best in spring and summer, ideal for daytime, weekend wear and warm-weather travel. If you wear scents like Calvin Klein Eternity, Burberry Classic, or Estée Lauder Pleasures, Escape sits comfortably in the same family.
How to use
- Hold the etched-glass bottle around 15 cm from the skin.
- Spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, behind the ears.
- Two to three sprays balance presence and longevity for the eau de toilette concentration.
- Reapply lightly later in the day if you'd like the apple-mandarin opening to return.
