Calvin Klein Women

This LITERALLY smells like clean fresh clothes ❤️ when you smell it you really inhale & take a deep breath of fresh beautiful air! I don't know why I put off buying it for so long (probably was afraid it won't last very long like the poll shows here on fragrantica) but here's what made me finally do it: My aunt (who only wears and loves fresh fragrances) told me that she smelled the prettiest scent on her classmate and had to ask what it was - and ofcourse it was CK Women. And that reminded me of having smelled it in the past and really liking it. So I went to the store and smelled the tester again and just KNEW I want it in my collection now! Plus I found a very good deal for it. It is a PERFECT everyday scent - you feel SO clean, SO fresh, SO pretty. Can take on any errand and be THAT WOMAN who smells the cleanest & the neatest. Longevity is like all fresh scents, not mind-blowing or beast mode, but it's still there after hours, lingering...

The nineties were my teenage years, so I grew up on fresh and novel scent profiles. Airy and watery fragrances like CK1 and l'Eau d'Issey were the backdrop to my formative years. I wore Nikos Sculpture myself. I've probably tried and tested a couple of hundreds of fragrances in the last 2 years and I've found some that I really like, but my nose just doesn't adapt to the cloyingly sweet, heavily birthday cakey smell of what is fashionable today. When I came across this one, my heart jumped. It felt like coming home. This has more character than Another 13, more zing than California Dream and more depth than the Molecule line, but I would situate its scent profile somewhere in these realms. It's a super fresh-yet-cozy woody nineties gem and I hope they never stop producing it because I will need this for the rest of my life.

My chemistry goes well with these semi-masculine feminine fragrances. On me, Women is very very watery and flowery with a nice eucalyptus kick. The eucalyptus gives it a masculine and energising touch and provides a subtle and unusual contrast. It almost feels like some of your boyfriend's T-shirt got mixed in your part of wardrobe and you decided to wear it on purpose to remind yourself of him during the day. It gives a very optimistic vibe. The drydown leans powdery and slightly sweet, almost like talc powder mixed with blonde woods. I love it! Finally, a fragrance by CK that suits me :)

Wearing this beauty is like walking in an orangerie in early may in the night time while all the orange blossoms wisper you a promise of a delicious fruit... At the same time reminds me the sweet woody scent that the box where I keep my frankincense and resins collection gives me when I open it. Its fresh and mellow like the purple and pink velvet sky in a winter sunset. Bitter and warm like the pleasant odour of a brand new leather bag. Maybe is not a fragrance for everyone. But I recomend to give it a try for a couple of days. (I apollogize if my review is too cheesy)

Calvin Klein Women is a big breath of fresh air. I find myself taking the deepest inhales to gather all its greatness in a single sniff. I’m not usually one for citrus based or ‘freshies’ however, this scratched an itch I didn’t even know I had. The black pepper is sharp as a knife, working as a gatekeeper for what lies ahead; gorgeous floral arrangements tucked gently between the branches of a giant cedar. A beautiful warm day in which you end up sun kissed and a bit salty from the windy earth that has stuck to your skin. 😍 Great fragrance and value!!

I received this as a sample. As soon as I put it on I knew I owned it already, in another form...La Rive Wave of love. One spray on each wrist and after 2 minutes they are exactly the same, with CK having a more masculine (typical CK dna) bergamot note and Wave beginning and staying with the drydown phase of CK. Since the performance of both is short I would rather save my pennies and reapply with Wave of Love. A very pretty uplifting clean scent with a hint of musk; feminine wafts of fresh tea and soft pretty florals. Perfect for a humid summer day.

I was walking down the street and this wonderful clean crisp green and a little soapy scent emerged, so I asked the women infront of me what she was wearing; it was Women from Calvin Klein. I bought it straight away and I will ALWAYS have this one in my collection! This scent blew my socks off.... LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! I just can ́t describe it! This one you have to experince yourself. I LOVE THIS SOOOOO MUCH. I get loads of compliments wearing this. Ps. I just bought the intense one (gorgeous) and will by the EdT as well!

As a white floral addict: this is perfect. If you want a soft, fresh white floral with some woodiness but not too woody, citrusy but not too zesty, musky but still light and slightly feminine, green but not smelling like herbs or tea, a bit of raspberry for slight fruitiness and a bit of frankincense for maturity, this is for you. The perfect Goldilocks you can rely on. I wear it on any season, day or night. It's mainly unisex but I can't deny it leans slightly feminine, hence the name. 10/10

This was a blind buy. All of the CK fragrances I have tried work well with my skin chemistry and citrus notes are among my favourites, so at a good price this was a no-brainer. The lemon and eucalyptus are beautiful and not harsh at all. The dry down is what took me by surprise - the raspberry note is very sweet and feminine (I was expecting something a bit more unisex after reading the reviews). A very wearable perfume, it is fast becoming my favourite everyday scent.

I've been meaning to buy this 3 days ago, and finally decided to get it today! Yesterday, I tried the tester & met my friends for K-bbq then coffee. Around 7 or 8 hours later, it had a faint whiff of powder. I can definitely smell the pepper, bergamot, cedar, and musk in it. CK Women would be my first spicy, modern, and oddly enough, unisex fragrance, and I'm loving it! What I hate is the frivolous plastic disc as the cap. It's going to be a bit bulky to travel with.

This fragrance is my personal dream scent! I first smelt it on the skin of a family member and it was reminiscent to Paco Rabanne’s ‘Million’ for men, with hints of their ‘Olympia’ but on my skin it’s smells almost exactly of Thierry Mugler’s ‘Womanity’. The latter being my favourite scent of all time, this is a cleaner version to a very heavy and “rich” scent of Mugler’s fragrance. Can’t say that it’s for everyone but would recommend testing it!

Just got a paper sample in a magazine and love it (my mom and sister loved it too). It's basically a slightly more grown up/refined light blue with a more sweet/fruity nuance to keep it interesting. Before I looked at the notes I guessed that it had grapefruit, cedar, and ambroxan. Turns out I was right but there's clearly more to it than that. I will definitely be interested in a bottle if/when the price goes down.

Very fresh, smells like clean clothes and bedding. Definitely unisex, I think it can lean a bit more masculine but I personally don't mind it. An everyday type of scent, for every season. The sillage and lasting power for me is outstanding! I got 10hrs wear out of this, and when I first smelled it on the paper strip I left the strip on my nightstand and for days I couldn't figure out what smelled so good!

This fragrance is for the minimalist woman. When I first smelled this I was hit by a wave of nostalgia. It reminds me of freshly washed clothing hanging outside at the first day of spring. Its so clean and beautiful .The orange blossom in here is stunning . This smells nothing like lightblue. This is much more sophisticated. The notes are beautifully blended . Also this fragrance smells good on clothing.

First, I had a sample of this perfume and I loved it. I had to have a bottle of it. So, I bought it and it was such a great investment!!! It has a unique, distinctive smell and lasts over 10 hours. You only need 2 sprays on your neck to smell beautifully all through the day. Honestly, I have never smelled this perfume on anyone around me, so I am proud to say that I am one of a kind :)))

i have a sample of this that i requested from sephora and i am absolutely obsessed with it, i need a 100ml in my life ASAP. It's very citrusy charp and salty, agh so invigorating!!!! it gives me life, hard for me to tell that it has all those notes in it, it smell so simple and clean cut, i think its a very modern sporty sexy scent. Planning on getting a full bottle by next month.

LOVE IT SO MUCH My fiance picked this for me. I get loads of compliments wearing this. I picture a beautiful classy & confident woman wearing this. Totally my new signature fragrance, so complex yet modern and unique. Clean Crisp Green and a little soapy on my skin. It gives me a slight cologne unisex vibe. 🌸 Orange flower petals 🌲 Alaskan Cedar Wood 🍋 Soft Citrus notes

I love this perfume so much. I don't like sweety girly scents. For me, it's like a unisex scent but in a good way. I have both the EDP and the EDT but the EDP is better and stays longer. I smell this on Macy's and I fell inlove with this. Another favorite of mine is the lotion of this. You'll never go wrong with it. Best scented lotion I ever had.

I'm new here so apologies if I sound stupid lol I absolutely love this perfume! It smelled really feminine to me until I read where someone said unisex and now I smell what they're talking about. Still really pretty and light and clean and girly for me. Oddly helps with my stress headaches. Happy place perfume 😊

Women develops on my skin in a good way. At first I can barely detect the floral notes; they emerge slowly with each passing hour, while cedar and black pepper emphasize the whole composition. To my surprise eucalyptus is not of the balsamic type (not bad!). Longevity is impressive. In my style.

It's a very very feminine scent but it's also somewhat unisex, so I find it very attractive. It smells very clean and it kind of reminds me of the sensation you get when putting on clothes that come straight from the clean laundry. Very nice. It definitely is a perfume for a day-date.

It was a blind buy. And first i did not really like it. But then at work, i felt myself in a flower garden and i received compliments from some colleagues... it is a fresh floral perfume and i love it.. I believe women intense is stronger than this one, so it will be my next choice.

My signature scent for summer and spring. It makes me feel so confident, and I get compliments everywhere I go. A man in a shop turned around and told me I smelled gorgeous. I received multiple compliments from colleagues and strangers. I always keep a bottle at home.

So soft and fresh, the opening is citrus and sweet with a lovely dry woody note that carries into the dry down. After an hour I can smell the pepper and raspberry notes and then it turns slightly powdery. I find it on a jacket smelling feminine and woody a day later.

I got a sample of this fragrance and loved it! Finally a fragrance that is not sweet! I love the freshness and the multiple facets. The eucaliptus is super interesting and woody dry down is just beautiful. Finally something different! Definitely a fragrance for me!

Got a 10ml of this fragrance and boy this is right up my street. Very unisex in my opinion, don't know why its called Women as its not very feminine. I love this and will be getting a bigger bottle for sure!

Fresh, light, soft, a bit sweet, NOT the sugar cloying sweet but a very pleasant and light sweet! It's not too feminine I LOVE IT! am I the only one who don't smell any eucalyptus in this?

I enjoyed wearing this. It was an absolute love. Perfect for work. Easy reach. Great for summer heat. Finished my bottle. Beautiful fresh citrus sparkling girly happy fragrance.

I really don't understand the hate for this fragrance. It is gorgeous. Clean, powdery, warm and fresh. Smells like laundry detergent and freshly washed clothes.

Great summer fragrance. Elegant and classy. Perfect combo of citruses and woods. Longevity is quit good 5-6 hours. Safe for work, stays close to the skin.

My favorite scent for office. Light, feminine and smells like confidence. Summer/spring time perfume + for work.

Its the best classy and clean fragrance for this price. I still can smell it after all day. I love it!

sweet, white floral with just enough musk to keep it from being overly feminine. 10/10 for me

beautiful grapefruit, can't wait for the summer heat to wear it in its fresh glory.

Get a sample test and being a man, I could say this could be unisex tho.

I just love this scent and i pray that they don't stop producing it. <3

Positives: Clean, fresh fragrance that enhances the clean feeling after a shower. Sharp, zesty and cool opening and smooth, musky white floral drydown. Certainly similar to "Light Blue" and somewhat similar to "Shiseido Zen" but more interesting and rich than either of them. It is also markedly affordable compared to these two fragrances. It sits close to the skin without much of a sillage, making it safe and versatile for places like the fitness and work. Cool and eye-catching (lol) package, even the 100 ml bottle is not too large or awkward to hold at all. Negative: Though similar to "Light Blue" and "Zen", it smells cheaper than them, especially in the opening where the citrusy notes can be a little harsh. Its longevity on skin is unremarkable much like the other two fragrances. I get three hours, maybe four if I generously reapply. It is definitely necessary to carry the bottle around and use it for touch-ups in order to enjoy the freshness for longer. On the plus side, it sticks to fabric really well and can still be smelled after the clothes go through the washing machine, much like the other two fragrances. Overall, this perfume has great potential and deserves a more concentrated re-release. It is not my favourite from "Calvin Klein" but it is a solid "like".

When I was searching for an attractive perfume to buy my partner at the time, I came upon this fragrance. I spotted this at a nearby Kohl's and was very taken aback. When I first smelt it, it woke me up, and there was something about it that made me imagine how lovely it would be on her. Fast forward two years, and I now have a large fragrance collection (including some perfume that could be worn by a man). I realized she still had it, so I grabbed it and sniffed it, and wow. This is completely unisex and can be worn by a male; I may even sneak a few sprays this week to check how it performs on my skin. This smells fantastic, and I can't believe how many terrible reviews there are on here about it. It's a pleasant woody musk with floral undertones. Overall, I think it would smell fantastic on both a lady and a guy. Out of all the scents I've smelt at a big shop like "Macys," I think this one is more laid back and less in your face. When I smell this, I picture her in a long black coat strolling through the streets of New York City on her way to a meeting. Just smells attractive

I tried this the other day for the second time and liked it even better than I had the first time around, I love the woodiness here. It's true that this scent could just as easily serve as a men's cologne. Normally, that would put me off but here it doesn't bother me for some reason. Neither does the ambroxan surprisingly. That's not to say that this scent smells natural. It definitely has a synthetic edge and also leans towards generic/fresh. Still, I really like it. Kinda reminds me of MK Gorgeous without the tuberose and tobacco. I also quite like the eucalyptus. Long ago I owned Contradiction - another CK scent with eucalyptus which I loved but it was too strong for me. This is going on my wish list as a possible purchase if I can find it for a very good price. At the moment IMO it's priced too high for what it is. I would also consider - and possibly even prefer - a tester, because I absolutely loathe the cap. Update - just spotted a great deal on a 10 ml travel spray so I ordered it. I'm really looking forward to wearing this as the weather turns warmer.

So I was worrying about what to do when my discontinued favorite Burberry The Beat ran out, and now I've found the answer: Women! This was a blind buy, after searching for something with tea, pepper, citrus, cedar and white musk. Calvin Klein's fragrances have never really worked for me and my body chemistry, and from the reviews I figured that it would be either perfect, or a complete disaster.(To be fair, I calculated with a 65% risk for disaster.) At first spritz, there was a huge, intense bouquet of white flowers - I barely detected any citrus, but plenty of fluffy, soapy jasmine. Well, I thought, this was an expensive trip to Bath and Body Works. But as the flowers died down, the pepper and tea came forward, and developed into an amazing, spicy, woody scent. Compared to The Beat, Women feels like the peppy, quirky teenage girl has grown into a mature woman.(disclaimer: I was well into my 30s when I discovered The Beat, and am now firmly settled into middle-age. Could probably still be considered quirky, though.)

I can't believe a fragrance called Women smells so masculine to me. I don't mind unisex or masculine scents, but I do get a cologne vibe from this one especially at the top. This did grow on me, but I did not like it on first spray. The initial blast of black pepper, I could do without. Smelling this straight out of the bottle is a bit chemically and strange. I absolutely love eucalyptus and appreciate it's use in this, though it's a bit at odds with some of the other notes. The dry down is fresh clean clothes, with a bit more femininity coming in from that raspberry, florals and musk. It does end up quite a unique freshie. Ambroxan is hit or miss for me but it does well here. I can see me using this up over the summer, but I would not call it a safe blind buy if you are looking for a main fresh fragrance. I wouldn't call it universally pleasing. It is a good buy if you already have some basic fresh everyday scents and are looking for something different to add to the mix.

Nice Calvin Klein release. It's fresh and clean, with a laundry-like vibe. I mostly smell citrus and hedione -as a mix of green fresh white florals. This is my first test of it and I'm not getting eucalyptus or olibanum. A reviewer mentioned it smelled much alike CK Truth for women: well, I've been through many bottles of Truth as it used to be my signature in the early 2000s and I'm afraid I must disagree. This is not a green-aquatic with a warm skin drydown type of fragrance which Truth was. I do agree with those who say that Women resembles a sheer men's cologne. Alright, Women isn't stunning or sophisticated but imho it is a good choice for an everyday summer fragrance. It also has a decent lasting power. Honestly, I don't understand why it is getting so much hate :/

I tested it multiple times to see if it would grown on me, but no, it didn't happened. Don't get me wrong, it is not bad, but it is simply not impressive. It is clean, green,a bit powdery, a bit citrusy. It is elegant and relaxing, but there are many many other such fragrances out there and this one is not even the best in this genre. i don't know why Calvin Klein felt the necessity to bring this fragrance to the market. Even my mother-in-law who is a fan of this type of fragrance was not impressed. If you're a fan of this kind of fragrance, i recommend reaching for Boss Ma Vie (any of the line) or Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche or maybe something from Biotherm. Sillage and longevity are also nothing to write home about, like the rest of this fragrance.

Solid fresh scent you can get a affordable price (I lucked out with £17,down from £25 for 50ml because the box was ruined). Smells like Eucalyptus and a citrusy and soapy orange blossom with a touch of cashmeran and ambroxan to make a skin scent. It isn't particularly sweet, and has a passing resemblance to contradiction for women, and ghost in the shell. Really unisex despite the name, and fits anyone who wants something sensible and easy going that nobody is going to object to. It suits smart casual dress for either gender quite nicely. I don't love it, because it doesn't particularly exciting and it doesn't last that well. Having said that, this is a great selection for a budget. Spray it on and get that bag girls, guys and theys.

I am just crazy about the opening. Wish it would last just a little longer. So unique, fresh and interesting. The eucalyptus mixed with citrus fruits and pepper - oh my God. Amazing! When drying down a warmth and sweetness shines through CK Women edp, that I like and appreciate enough to not stay too sad about missing the inviting and intoxicating first seconds of this creation. Unisex? Well, yeah, why not. It is sweet and spicy at the same time and with just a bit of minty sharpness (from the eucalyptus I guess), and a touch of the citrus fruits can be detected underneath the layer of the heavier notes of flowers, musk and wood(s). So yes, I think it could be unisex So far it is a very big like 😊

Calvin Klein fragrances offer something for nearly everyone (something floral, spicy or fresh). I really appreciate the range and style. Might be too safe for some but price value is great. Women is, as many have said, clean and fresh with a woody Ambroxan DNA, the "scent" it basically dries down to in the end. So a tad artificial, yes. If you like scents like this (Toni by Toni Gard is another good one in this price range) then you can happily and rather safely blind-buy Women. The bottle is gorgeous, the scent has moderate lasting power and sillage. Great choice if you cannot or won't shell out the big bucks for something "niche" that basically smells the same. Easy grab, year round IMHO.

An understated and underrated citrus freshie, that for me, plays a similar role in my perfume collection to JHAG Not a Perfume. Like NAP, I can safely wear this to Yoga or any other form of exercise without imposing my scent on others. It simply smells fresh and clean. I also get wafts of this scent radiating off my skin 6 hours after application, most certainly due to the Ambroxan. It's a stronger and longer lasting citrus version of NAP, which I also love. If you can't detect the Cetalox in NAP, which sometimes happens to me, you may have better luck with detecting the Ambroxan in Calvin Klein's Woman.

I was on the look for a new summer fragrance without much sweetness as our temperatures are soaring to sweltering levels already. CK Women fits the bill. It is a fresh, clean citrus floral, crisp and refreshing. The citruses are beautiful and soft rather than shrill, the flowers are clean but abstract, and the composition rests on a soft base of woods and ambroxan. A totally wearable and pleasant formula with soft moderate performance perfect for hot summers. The downside is if you’re a collector, it wouldn’t add anything new or edgy. I just wish it had more olibanum, or even black pepper or eucalyptus.

I got a sample vial from Amazon. This is unisex perfume. Grapefruit is prominent. I don't think the name and color doesn't match this perfume. It's yellow or white, not pink. It's citrus perfume with some wood and violet in base. Because of violet, slightly powdery at the end. I don't feel it's oriental floral. Sillage is very weak (almost skin scent) but longevity is pretty good concidering it's citrus one. This is not my cup of tea. If you like a light and long-lasting grapefruit perfume, you'll like this. PS; It reminds me "Destiny Blue by Marilyn Miglin" and "D&G Light Blue".

Perfume is fresh and cool, like fresh wind and cold water. Then it reminds me fabric softener on washed and wet clothes. On my skin I smell citruses, raspberry and softenes and warmness of cashmeran. On clothes it smells more green and woody. It has some sharpness on both (skin, clothes), but mostly in the opening. Flowers in this perfume are prominent, they are well blend, so they smell like bouquet, not like individuals. I don ́t think that CK Women smells unisex, for me it ́s really feminine (however, it depends on your body chemistry and your nose).
