not the CHILD Kate Moss is, nor has ever been, the face of this perfume. if you see her beanstalk naked body spread on the couch, this doesn't in anywhich way conjure up images of Obsession. the REAL face of Obsession has been, in the 80s, and nevertheless willalways be, Josie Barain, a woman who could bare this heavy, heady, amberperfume. for me all the nostrilcleaners of the 80s (which I all loved unless too light) were 'da thing'. the Holy Trinity wasn't only Linda, Naomi and Christy but also Giorgio, Obsession and Poison. Calvin Klein made a daring advertisement of Obsession with Josie Barain and TWO men naked in bed. this was all very obscurely and virtuously done, yet left no doubt, just like Marky Mark gabbed his dick in the (in)famous advertisement for underwear. Calvin Klein was the Tom Ford of the 80s. but the perfume proved to be immortal. once I stood in a perfumerie (after 2010) and thought 'what is that gorgious smell ?'. it proved to be Obsession. for me, who had the perfume several times, this is a keeper. along with Poison and Giorgio. yet I do fare wth my times and still love code 4 perfumes. Dusita's Oudh Infini, Terry de Gunsberg'sTerryfic Oudh and ~ extrème, of course Coco, Knowing, Angel, Versace's Blonde, Boudoir, Flowerbomb, etcetera. quite a lot of Montales. J.A.R.'s out of your body smelling Golconda and Diamond Water. Ex Idolo's Thirty Three. all these oudh-rose combinations,along with the Ambers Ambra Nera (NN Annanciata Pharmacia) et Fiori di Ambra (Profumum Roma) are been paved the way by the toxic sisters of the 80s. I found the advertisements with Kate Moss totally out of place for this chic perfume.
