The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

CK One Summer 2020 by Calvin Klein is a vibrant composition that captures the essence of a summer escape. Launched in 2020, this fragrance opens with mandarin orange and sea salt, creating an invigorating freshness that feels like stepping into the ocean on a warm day. The heart adds ginger and sage for a spicy-herbal complexity, while amber and sandalwood provide a grounding warmth in the base notes.

How to wear it

One or two sprays are enough to capture the essence of this fragrance. The mandarin orange top note is bright but fleeting, so it's best applied in the morning for daytime wear. Allow a few minutes for the amber and sandalwood base notes to develop their warmth.
