CK has made improvements

Hello everyone,

for me ck1 is already a classic for generations. For me you can't do much better and if you can, it's just small things.
ck2 is the successor of ck1 and at this point CK has once again created a super fragrance. The question is whether the violet leaf in the top note is not already clearly too feminine. This would be one of the criteria why a man does not like to have the scent as a man. As a compensation for the violet there are wooden scents in the base note, which balances the violets again a little bit
The scent is very good, even if I would still prefer ck1 to ck2.

Salute

Nice Acqua Fragrance (7.125/10)

Scent
The scent of CK2 is too soft and light. Just a scent of a bit citrus on it and its nice scent. The middle and base notes almost none.

Longevity
The longevity is quite low.
For non 4-seasons countries, this fragrance scent is suit for internal use especially night. The longevity scent of this fragrance is around 3-4 hours.
For the 4-seasons countries, the longevity is around 5-6 hours.

Performance
The performance is quite low. The scent projection is only from the top notes and its for a moment. Seems like more to acqua fragrance or eau de cologne.

Sillage
The sillage is almost none.

Uniqueness
The uniqueness of this fragrance is on the bottle.

Bottle Design
Upside-down vaporisateur fragrance bottle is the attraction of CK2.

Much Anticipated Flanker

When I first sprayed CK2 by Calvin Klein I didn't think much of it. The initial blast was very citrusy, ozonic and metallic. I stuffed the scent strip into my handbag and carried on with my day.

Revisiting this fragrance again, I am amazed by how much it has developed. It's more powdery and floral on second sniff, like a subdued floral aquatic. I may be unpopular for saying this but I actually enjoy CK2 far better than CK One.

The metallic accord remains throughout the entire composition, however it is by no means unpleasant. CK2 smells very clean and clinically fresh to my nose, almost like the scent of undiluted laundry detergent. CK2 would make the perfect Summer scent especially if paired with a casual t-shirt and blue jeans.

At this present point in time this fragrance is leaning more towards the feminine side, especially seeing that I can smell lots of powdery violet leaf and peony emanating from my paper strip. I am however curious to see how CK2 wears on a man.

I find this fragrance to have excellent staying power and moderate sillage. It's a first in a long line of CK One flankers that I actually find interesting.
