This popular fragrance from Calvin Klein kicked off the whole unisex buzz when it was released in 1994. Of course there were unisex fragrances before cK One (4711 by Muelhens for example) but it was Calvin Klein that made it sexy.

|  It's pretty hard for me to describe the notes in this one. It's one of those fragrances that you "just recognize" if you've ever smelled it. Ck One is a very clean, citrus-y floral (synthetic jasmine) with a touch of unrecognizable woods and some very fresh-smelling musk in the base. It's actually a very good example of a synthetic fragrance at it's best. I used to wear this and CK Be all the time when I was about 10-13 years old, and it brings back some very good memories. (I always liked CK Be a lot more though). I really like CK One overall, but unfortunately I can't wear it these days because it just screams the 90's for me. On a final note, Azzaro's chrome is very, very similar to CK One, but it feels more modern and crisp, so I'd probably recommend it over Ck One. 7.25/10 11 December 2008 |

|  As many other thumbs down review say, the stuff has an awful, sour, synthetic, chemical note. Actually makes me want to clear my throat and spit. How did something so toxic make it by the test panel? Could be one of those either/or notes that some people pick up and others are oblivious to. For instance, some, including myself, find the aroma of white pepper very repulsive. Others love it. 01 November 2008 |

|  As a young man I find that this cologne is pretty nice. It is not offensive and it smells fresh and clean. The cologne is somewhat citrusy and sweet, almost sugary like which is a good thing. I like this cologne and I find that it is best suited for daytime and is more like a summer cologne or maybe a summer. This fragrance is appropriate for office or school wear and it is targeted towards male teens and up, but it is a nice scent for women of any age. On a woman it speaks sexy but subtle and fresh. But many women find that it is slightly masculine, but I beg to differ. Overall I give this fragrance 8.5/10. If you want a fragrance that is fresh and inoffensive than this is for you. 13 October 2008 |

|  Too heavily advertised and therefore too often smelt on others which saturated my nose. Don't be surprised to smell like everyone else if you wear it, 03 October 2008 |

|  This is headache alley! I use to wear this in middle school some 14 yrs ago. I guess it was ok for that time. But If I wore this mess now O my...... This is a light yet strong fragrance if you get where im coming from. The smell is just horrible & very cheap bland like. Even when I smell this on someone else my nose instantly flares in disgust! This is 1 I would NOT recommend to anyone. 03 October 2008 |
