That's a relief! It looks like I would have to obtain it online though and I don't know how long I want to do this for...maybe it's a sign that I need a change? So I will get a couple of bottles but will continue to read the site and follow you on FB. I don't know if you can do this but..if you remember what it smells like, could you think of a perfume with similar tones? Please do let me know if you can....thank you again.

Check Nordstrom, they do have it online. Prescriptives is gone, but Calyx will stay in production, in fact, it’s just started reappearing in stores in slightly new packaging.

I have been wearing Calyx (Prescriptives) for 20 years....as you know, it is not available anymore. I have been trying to learn about perfume, smell them, try them, but alas....nothing made me think, ''I need to have this'' like I thought when trying Calyx for the very first time. Any recommendations? I like the earthy tones of the Aveda products and although I don't mind spraying their ''perfume'' in a room, I wouldn't wear it. Help! Thank you in advance...

I live in India at present and the market here is flooded with all sorts of knockoffs that smell just like original.Are you aware of any sources of genuine perfumes in India? What is the difference between an imitation and a knockoff? Thank you very much. Dear Robin,
