CALVIN KLEIN'S OBSESSION PERFUME {SEX IN ADVERTISING}

Summary

In this commercial for Obsession perfume from Calvin Klein, an androgenous-looking teenage boy explains that he's in love with a beautiful older woman who has abandoned him. "Did I invent her?" he wonders. "The secrets in her twilight eyes? The whispers at my bedside?" He goes on to say that she's the only woman he will ever love. Slogan (supered): "Love is child's play once you've known obsession. Calvin Klein's Obsession."
