Launched in 1978, Calvin Klein by Calvin Klein is a chypre floral fragrance that embodies the brand's signature minimalism and classic style. The composition opens with aldehydes and hyacinth, creating an initial crispness before transitioning into a heart of gardenia, peach, raspberry, rose, carnation, lily-of-the-valley, jasmine, and orris root. This floral bouquet is grounded by a base of oakmoss, amber, sandalwood, cedar, and musk, which adds depth and warmth without overpowering the delicate top notes.

Application Tips
Calvin Klein by Calvin Klein has a balanced projection that makes it suitable for both daytime and evening wear. Apply two sprays to the pulse points in the morning; the aldehydes will provide an initial freshness that fades into the more complex floral notes as the day progresses.
