Basenotes says...
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.

   |  I must applaud CK for revitalizing the interest in unisex frags, but unfortunately, this is not a winner. The opening is somewhat like a traditional cologne tempered with harsh synthetics and fermenting fruits. Carries a light, musky, fresh base. I pass on this one. Try it at Macy's if you haven't already.14 November 2009 |
  |  Bright, clean smelling...a happy scent. Perfect for adolescents. Adults are likely to find this yawn-inducingly boring. 20 October 2009 |
  | I used to wear this when it was first launched , and as someone said it is a 90's scent.Light,clean and fresh and caused quite a stir at the time - however now whenever I smell it ,it seems crude and basic and very cheap, a bit like washing up liquid. My partner was going to buy a bottle recently,but luckily was talked out of it !! A fragrance of its time !I'll give it a neutral rating as I used to wear it,but just seems to be unrefined and crass now ! 25 July 2009 |
  | 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. 7/10 08 July 2009 |

| When I take the time to smell One and sort out the ingredients, it strikes me as a pleasant mix. But when I just take a whiff of what I'm wearing, I find it overall rather blah. This might be a case when the parts don't add up to be a whole. 23 June 2009 |
 |  One of the best citrus-based scents in the mainstream market. Very casual yet distinctive. A must have.17 June 2009 |
