Calvin Klein CK One Summer 2009 is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009, created by Richard Herpin. CK One Summer 2009 opens with Bergamot, Lime, Cucumber, and Mint, settles into a heart of Sea Water, Lotus, Apple, and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Rum. Calvin Klein's CK One Summer 2009 carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This early CK One Summer flanker is a divisive beast: some hail it as a perfect summer refresher, while others find its freshness too generic or even masculine. Love it or not, it definitely embodies a 'teen spirit' vibe.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

It kicks off with a vibrant mix of fresh cucumber, zesty lime, and cool mint, quickly blending into a heart of crisp green apple, aquatic notes, and herbaceous rosemary. The base settles into a unique blend of rum and earthy woods, giving it a surprising depth beneath the initial splash of freshness.
