Man

by Ann Gottlieb

Calvin Klein Man is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2007, created by Ann Gottlieb. The fragrance opens with Violet Leaf, Rosemary, Bergamot, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Bay Leaf, Mint, Nutmeg, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Cypress, Sandalwood, Guaiac Wood, and Musk.

Our verdict on Man: Favourite

This one's a proper dark horse, often compared to Fahrenheit but for a fiver. It's a clean, spicy-woody violet leaf bomb that's either a classic hidden gem or a fleeting, generic disappointment, depending on who you ask. Performance is the biggest sticking point, but the scent itself has a loyal following.

Its versatile fresh, woody, and aromatic profile makes it suitable for everyday wear, particularly the office and casual outings. However, its often-reported moderate sillage and longevity prevent it from being a powerhouse for formal events or intense sport.

About

A brisk opening of violet leaf and bergamot gives way to an aromatic heart humming with spicy nutmeg, bay leaf, and a cool whisper of mint. As it settles, cypress and guaiac wood lend an earthy, woody depth, softened by a clean musk and a subtle amber warmth. It's fresh, green, and unapologetically masculine, with a hint of mystery.
