The story behind the bottle.
CK One Summer 2021 by Calvin Klein is a vibrant citrus aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of summer. Perfumer Clement Gavarry has crafted this scent with a blend of watery and fruity notes, making it refreshing and lively from the start. The composition opens with grapefruit and lemon, giving way to a heart of eucalyptus and rhubarb, before settling into a base of white woods and ambroxan for a warm, comforting finish. This fragrance embodies the brand's signature minimalism while embracing the season’s energy.
For optimal wear, apply this fragrance to pulse points in areas like your wrists and neck. The watery notes are bright but fleeting, so reapply every few hours if you want to maintain the full effect throughout the day.
