The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022, CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein is a sophisticated blend of citrus and woody notes that captures the essence of modern elegance. Perfumer Nathalie Benareau has crafted this fragrance to be both fresh and inviting, with a bright opening of mandarin orange and lemon that leads into a heart of sweet pea and violet leaf. The base notes of sandalwood, oakmoss, and cashmere wood provide a warm and grounding finish, making it perfect for those who appreciate a balanced composition.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points and allow it a moment to settle before heading out. The citrus top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so the woody base will carry you through the day without needing frequent reapplication.

Coconut water and flamenco rhythm

Born in 1974 in Thonon-les-Bains, France, Nathalie Benareau grew up between Algerian, Spanish, and French influences — the scents of couscous and Spanish tapas shaping her nose before she moved to New York.
