CK One Essence

CK One Essence, 2024, is the original built back up rather than reinterpreted — Calvin Klein puts it at roughly twice the concentration of the eau de toilette.

Italian bergamot and blood orange open it, noticeably juicier than the 1994 version, over a heart of organic green tea that is the thread back to the original. Australian sandalwood and musk hold the base, and they are what the extra concentration buys: it stays on skin for hours where CK One drifts off.

Parfum intense.
