Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - CK One EDT
The iconic unisex citrus-green scent - crystalline, breezy, and soapy. Effortlessly wearable, but fleeting and quiet. The ultimate casual clean fragrance and a 90s legend.

Our Verdict - No.138 See Kay 1 EDP
No.138 chases Calvin Klein CK One's famous unisex citrus-musk formula and gets the light, clean opening right, but the floral heart and musky base thin out much faster, losing the original's soft, lingering skin scent.
