UPCYCLED INGREDIENTS
Let's look first at Calvin Klein Eternity For Women. This iconic fragrance features Cedarwood Virginia—a woody essential oil with a dry, ambery scent. In the US, this type of wood is mainly used to build closets because of its distinctive aroma that helps keep bugs away. Instead of leftover wood chips going to waste, they are given a second life, transformed through steam or water distillation into a rich essential oil.
Now to the much loved CK One Essence, which uses upcycled turpentine, a byproduct from the paper industry, most notably from soft wood used in cardboard production. Using a process called fractionation, key components are extracted and distilled to create this modern musk.
