Calvin Klein CK One Summer 2018 is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2018, created by Pierre Negrin. CK One Summer 2018 opens with Lemon, Lime, and Mint, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Pineapple, and Guava, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Coconut. Calvin Klein's CK One Summer 2018 carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A divisive summer spritz that swings between a refreshing mojito and a generic 'men's shower gel'. If you're looking for an easy-wearing, budget-friendly summer scent, this might be your jam - just don't expect groundbreaking performance or an original scent profile. You get what you pay for.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, light-hearted profile and weak performance make it ideal for casual wear and invigorating sport, where frequent reapplication is expected. The tropical accords mean it's less suited for formal work or evening date settings, but is a solid 'spray and go' for hot summer days where unobtrusive freshness is key.

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

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • 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

Imagine kicking back with a zesty mojito; lime and mint burst from the off, sharply herbaceous and invigorating. This juicy freshness mellows into a fruity heart of sweet pineapple and exotic guava, softened by a whisper of jasmine. The base is an unexpected creamy blend of coconut and grounding cedar, lending a tropical lounge vibe that lingers close to the skin.
