Im trying to restyle myself and am wondering if this needs to go as part of my revamp.

Wow - CK Obsession. I've been taken down memory lane with that name. Grin

Wasn't it the one in the silver or transparent bottle or was that CK One? Not sure anymore but I vaguely remember the old Calvin Klein days.

In your 40s or 50s, I guess but only because you've asked us to guess. I think any age can wear it if they like.

Obsession has an elongated egg sphere bottle with a brown cap. If you spot any on eBay with a gold line around the cap snap it up, as that's pre-reformulation juice and a completely different animal to the one produced nowadays, which is still recognisably Obsession, but much sweeter and not so deep.

Thanks very much for the tip @PAFMO. I'll look out for it. Smile

Just googled them now and yep, I recognise them (One and Obsession for men especially) but was mistaking one for the other.

The silver/clear one, CK One, I remembered more because it's unisex and we used it to mark our departure from teenage-hoodGrin

I'm 53 and used to like it.

My Mam loves Obsession and Angel, she's 79. Maybe not the answer you're hoping for 😂

Late 40s/early 50s?

That's what age group I'd associate with it, but it really doesn't matter if you like it.

There are certain smells that seem older or younger - I wouldn't expect a 70 year old to be wearing Britney Spears Fantasy as I wouldn't expect an 18 year old to smell like Chanel No 5 - but ultimately you just wear what you feel suits you!

I’m surprised you’re only 45, I’d have aged you a decade older,
