Intuition by Estée Lauder
Despite a great experience with a sample of this perfume, the scent from the spray bottle of eau de parfum I purchased has a disturbingly abiotic overtone and quickly evolves from nearly astringent grapefruity tones and something rose-like into persistent odors of decaying saliva (their version of bergamot?) and fluid from bacterial abcesses (the "double rose"?). [Unfortunately, I know these and other specific aversive odors through my work.] It is in many ways remarkably similar to the scent of L'oreal's self-tanning lotion.
An ex who enjoys flavored coffee really liked it on me.

Euphoria by Calvin Klein
Despite high hopes after the initial spray, I found this to be an unfortunate combination of Lou-Lou, Poison, and Obsession, plus some brighter notes, with the lasting impression of one of the Obsession knock-offs sold in dollar stores in the late 1980's...kind of like a latex condom filled with cough syrup held by two people, one whom is wearing Beautiful and the other is wearing Obsession. It has great staying power, though.
