Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - CK Be Eau de Toilette
Ultra-clean, green and soft, CK Be is the ultimate unisex skin scent: easy, chill, and quietly confident without ever shouting. Perfect for those who value subtlety above all.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Hakka Eau de Parfum
Prepare for a blast of mint that polarises opinion. Some find it a 'mouthwash' or 'medicinal cream' horror, others revel in its cooling, vibrant green freshness. It's certainly unique, but definitely sample before you commit.

Season and Occasion Fit

CK Be Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

CK Be shines in spring and summer with its crisp green and aromatic freshness, while the light musky-woody drydown is less suited to cold temperatures or winter layering.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, soft projection and sheer style make it perfect for office and casual wear, as well as discreet sports use, but it lacks the richness for formal occasions.

Hakka Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport

Its intensely fresh and cooling character, particularly the strong mint opening, makes it excellent for casual and sport wear, especially in hot weather. However, the divisive scent profile and potential for strong projection in some wearers mean it's less suitable for formal or date settings, and only moderately acceptable for office environments where subtlety is often key.
