The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2008 by Calvin Klein and crafted by perfumer Harry Fremont, CK One Summer 2008 is a Woody Aquatic fragrance that embodies the essence of summer's freshness. The composition opens with ozonic and green notes, evoking the crispness of an early morning beachfront breeze. This breath of air is complemented by aromatic and fresh spicy accords, creating a dynamic contrast between the aquatic top and the woody base that anchors the scent.
Apply CK One Summer 2008 lightly — its ozonic top notes are bright and immediate. The scent shifts from aquatic freshness to a more woody base over time, so it’s best worn during the day when you want something light yet enduring.
