"I was obsessed with photography, Kate and I were in love … I could not stop taking pictures of her, sometimes it drove her crazy, and sometimes she happily posed for me. It was a great time. We were young, and never again have I so obsessed and in love with his model, "says Mario Sorrenti about creating the famous advertising images for Obsession. It was in 1993 in the Virgin Islands, where they were personally sent by Calvin Klein. Starring 19-year-old Kate Moss. They were asked to create informal, intimate photographs. There was no team of assistants, no stylists or producers. Only two lovers who conveyed all the sensuality of the fragrance.
Raf Simons could not forget about this offscreen love story and decided to use previously unpublished photographs to advertise his debut fragrance, a descendant of Obsession, Obsessed for Women. According to the designer, at the heart of the Obsessed concept is the idea of another person's scent on the skin, which evokes memories of a past love. Fresh yet very warm, Obsessed for Women balances on the verge of masculine and feminine accords - here notes of white lavender, creamy musk, neroli and citrus sparkles. At the heart of the male prototype is a note of black vanilla, patchouli, leather and ambrox molecule. The rounded bottle embodied Simons' desire to show the sensuality that is at the heart of Calvin Klein, to go back to basics, while declaring modern and fresh trends.
