CK IN2U for Her

Fresh CITRUS Over VANILLA-WOODS Scent. Opens with a fresh citrus-y burst of pink-grapefruit & bergamot accented by red-currant-leaf. That segues into the cactus & orchid heart. Cactus here bringing some green, juicy tones and something near a tea note, while orchid brings soft powdery florals and helps to continue the faint fruitiness of the opening citrus notes a little into the heart. This all rests on a base of vanilla & red-cedar resin that combine into a lather of sweet, powdery, faintly-soapy, woody & aromatic notes. This has average performance for a spring through fall wearing experience, although the citrus component lasts only part-way into the heart. Overall: affordable, unisex, gorgeous fresh citrus over vanila-woods scent with average performance for a spring through fall wearing experience. It's a love for me. Cheapie gem: Enjoy! Update 06/17/25: I've come to appreciate the artistry of this more and more. There's a delicacy here in the portrayal of the red-cedar which in the sillage evokes steamy saunas and red-cedar chests. It's gotten a lot more woody over time. Still quite citrus-y in the grapefruit top, but something resinous underneath plus the red-cedar woodiness which leans a bit soapy along with the steamy citrus wafting off of it. I like this more each time I wear it. Today it's giving me some passing reminders of White Tea Elizabeth Arden (although these aren't clones). Love it still.

I have a huge problem with finding ''summer'' perfumes cause I don't like the generic citrus perfumes, eg. Light Blue, and sometimes my usual perfumes are a bit too much on 40+ weather. With that said, I have been absolutely obsessed with in2U since 8th grade. My friend used to wear it a lot and I got myself a 150ml bottle that I still have to this day. I think it was one of the first, if not the very first perfume I have ever had and I remember begging my mom to buy it for me cause back then I didn't have much money. I personally feel an intense orange blossom in this one, and maybe it's the blend with the grapefruit and vanilla, but I just think orange blossom when I wear it. What can I say, it's the perfect summer day fragrance that you can not overspray, literally even if you have soaked your shirt it still smells nice and not overpowering. Longevity is not good, but I don't mind at all for the price, I will just keep it on me and spray all day long, it just smells like ''happy'' (still don't know if it's the memories that I have with it, but it puts me in a good mood). It reminds me of looong hot summer nights out with friends, maybe after a few drinks, you just laugh and have a good time. You can't go wrong with it, they have done a very good job with this one and I know I will forever have it in my collection. So, YESS BUY IT IT'S AMAZING!!!!! :)

If you remember CK fragrances when they first came out in the 90’s... this is very reminiscent of that unisex DNA that most of the CK fragrances had. However... there is something in this that makes it stand out much more and is so addicting to me. I’m not a big freshie lover...I have maybe 70 ish fragrances and about 5 or six freshies that I love. This is one of them. 100% unisex. Absolutely beautiful grapefruit and lemon and dries down to a more woody citrus. If you like truly unisex fragrances, or if you like citrus/grapefruit openings in your fragrance, I don’t see how you couldn’t like this. I honestly don’t think this fragrance can offend anyone. Its sillage and projection are not the greatest...however, I bought a 5oz bottle for under $20. Literally cheaper than a bath and body works mist these days and about the same lasting power as Jo Malone fragrances. I don’t understand how this does not have more hype and I’m kinda glad about it because I don’t want to smell like everyone else. If I smelled this on a male, I would go crazy... but I honestly love it just as much on myself. I would pay three times the price that this is selling for. Definitely an oldie but goodie and is a timeless freshie that I could never be without.

In the description it says, "Calvin Klein demonstrates that he still knows what young people need," which is cringe, and saying so only demonstrates the opposite. But that doesn't matter to me! It actually smells really good--there's a milkiness that just works in this fragrance, and I love the cedar. I'm surprised no one else mentions a lactonic impression from this. 🤷♀️ I am not sure about whether Coty is this watering-down Devil whom people have described; I wish I could say for sure, but I don't have the experience to tell. If they are doing that, the hatred is really justified. CK IN2U does have a strong alcohol smell upon spraying, which dissipates. I have the 100 ml bottle, which I feel like could last me at least two summers. But I do not wear this every day by any means. I go through streaks when I wear it repeatedly, then forget about it completely. I actually do find this fragrance sexy when I am in the right mood. Update 09/02/22: I may have to disagree a bit with my first impressions, because now I don't feel like this "just works." I feel like IN2U really should work, I don't know why it doesn't work, and it's not just the name and the bottle. Feels unfinished.

Needed a cheapy for the gym (saw the rec on youtube so I blind bought it) and this perfume serves that purpose perfectly. Top note smells like you just squeeze a citrus, kinda grapefruit-y rather than lemon-y since it's a bit sweet, but very fresh. The citrus scent lingers for around 2-3 hours then settles down to a creamy scent, not too sweet but very comfortable. Will not give you a migrane. Many people said that longevity wasn't good. Personally I find it has very decent longevity, around 5-6 hours or even longer, although after 3 hours, you're probably the only one who smell it. Good projection I feel, not coying at all and it makes me feel pretty and happy when working out. Doesn't smell cheap, in fact, it smells quite interesting for the price. But also in a way, kinda basic because of the citrus top note but I don't mind. Personally I like it way more than D&G light blue because of the sweet, feminine base note. Overall, I am super happy with the purchase. 10/10 You prolly won't like it as much if you buy it to use every day. But it's the perfect gym fragrance especially for women, but I think men can pull this off too.

I absolutely adore this fragrance! I've been looking for a grapefruit fragrance for a while now, but was put off buying this because the bottle was too androgynous and didn't seem feminine enough. But I kept testing it every time I went in to Boots and eventually I just had to buy it! The BF loves it on me too, which is a bonus! I love the fact that it starts off fresh and fruity, and then becomes warm and powdery. It's very sexy! It kind of makes me feel beautiful, in a way that is the real "me" rather than an aspirational sort of "me". I love it so much that now I don't even care about the bottle, in fact, it's kind of grown on me. It's the scent that matters at the end of the day, not the marketing. This is not a scent for just technophile youngsters. This is a scent for anyone who wants to strike a balance between fresh citrus and sweet vanilla, with a soft sillage that makes you feel pretty and feminine, and I find it suitable for day and night alike. It's youthful, without being reserved only for the young. I guess they have to pick a market and roll with it- don't pay attention to that, and give this a try!

Time passes by and there will always be something about this perfume that is so damn pleasant. Agree with the comments, it's casual, actually not very femenine, but if you wear it on the right moments won't make you feel masculine at all. It's not overwhelming at all, I like it because I can spray myself a lot and feel so clean, light and radiant. Juicy lemon and grapefruit, bright, sparkling, so enjoyable, and then the drydown to the softness of that perfect, intimate vainilla... Just yummy. The lasting power is great (+8hs) on cold months, not that much on summer. I would highlight the words clean and sporty, makes me want to use it everytime I go to the gym, or after I take a shower, when getting ready to go to work, just to uplift me. This perfume is really versatile. It's my choice whenever I don't want the whole world to know I'm wearing perfume or to notice a complex fragance, but I want to smell really good to myself. Simple and balanced. The bottle is so delicate and modern, I love it.

God this is good. Blind bought based on reviews. The first time I spritzed it I was transported to high school memories. I would recognize the scent anywhere - the fragrance of my first love and first heartbreak. Not what I thought I was signing up for purchasing this LOL. Now I'm wondering how much of a part this scent had in my feelings for this person. Because this perfume is GOOD. It leans masculine to me, in fact I remember telling them I "liked their cologne" only to be corrected that it was a women's perfume. However, I think any woman or man could rock this. It's both fresh and sexy, and the citrus sticks around far longer than it does in other fresh scents I've tried. It's winter right now and this feels cozy somehow, but I can't wait to rock it in the heat. It's versatile, inexpensive, unisex, decently long lasting. Signature scent worthy, I'd gladly grab this regardless of the outfit / occasion, save for maybe a super formal event.

Please can people that don’t understand in citrus fragrances stop leaving comments on such type of scents. Like it is supposed to be sour/tart. It citrus dominated fragrance. It is supposed to be a blast of citrus (bergamot, lemon, grapefruit etc) in your face! That’s the point of lemony,citrusy notes sometimes!!!!! Those fragrances are usually are used in very hot and humid environments, cause it’s one of the most refreshing things you could wear when it’s 100°f outside and you can’t literally breathe outside. And no in those situations it doesn’t smell like detergent/dish soap etc. Now about the fragrance great citrus and aromatic fragrance! It does however barely lasts on my skin. Till the moment I get to that gorgeous vanilla dry down it mostly disappears. Otherwise smells expensive with some niche aromas in it. I even prefer it over Chanel Chance eau fraiche (despite that Chanel’s fragrance is one of the best citrusy fragrances)

I adore this perfume. I blind bought it because it was so cheap at Walmart. I actually didn't like it at first, as I loved the bright grapefruit opening but I thought the mid became too masculine, or really, too CK One in DNA. However, I sampled this one off and on for about 3 weeks, and now I'm really in love. I don't find the mid too masculine; in fact, I've embraced its astringent tea note (despite tea not being listed) amidst a backdrop of soft vanilla. It's like having a cup of tea with a lemon scone. It's both uplifting and cozy at the same time with that little hug of non-gourmand vanilla. It makes me really happy to wear this and the heat makes it shine! Longevity is quite good, as is sillage. The only thing I don't love is the plastic atomizer, but besides that, I would definitely repurchase. It's something I would keep in my collection as long as I can get it!

After a slow start, this has grown on me and is now one of my favorites. It opens with a big fruity flourish that put me off for a while, just because it seems kind of simple and juvenile. The opener reminds me of the fragrances I used to wear in middle school. But it doesn't take long for IN2U to drydown into a spicy, woody, unique fragrance with a surprising sweet center. Much more grownup and complex than the opening promises! I bought a 15ml sample but I like it enough to go for a full-size bottle. I think of IN2U as a warm weather, daytime, suitable-for-work fragrance, and it seems firmly unisex to me. It's warm and spicy enough, though, that I will try it when the weather cools down and see what happens. Looking forward to it.

As every citrus, this lasts like an hour on me. BUT thats not a problem at all. To me this is the perfect summer fragrance - its a fresh lemony, orangey vanilla from start to finish. It smells like something you have smelled for the last 20 years (which is also kinda true). To describe it best I would say that it smells cheap, but not in a bad manner, more like a fabric softener. This fragrance smells like clean sheets or laundry that you have just pulled out of the machine - this is what I mean when I say cheap. I love it and its also totally worth the money even with the poor longevity. Everyone loves the CK One for a summer fragrance, but this is better.

I wore this in a store the other day, and the sales associate assisting me needed a managers help and she mentioned to him she kept smelling pledge furniture cleaner so maybe this isn't a compliment getter. It's not for everyone but anyone can wear it if that makes sense. It's unisex smelling and never leans too masculine or feminine. It starts like warm pledge imo but the drydown is fresh and sweet. This works very well in hot summer days if you're wanting something unique and not a typical aquatic or fruity scent. Seems like a fragrance you either really like or you really don't. It smells really lovely to me.

A gorgeous perfume.. and the price? 🔥 Years ago, this girl smelled like heaven.. Then I bought it and I was in love, my skin was super compatible with this scent. Citrusy vanilla, I can affirm that could be labeled unisex, but not masculine!! Over the years, I got the impression that this has been reformulated, because of the longevity and some flankers I bought had this scratchy citrus that was not in a first place.. and in a way it lacked depth it had.. But I'm going to buy it regardless.. Can somebody tell me (people who love this scent maybe) is this anyhow similar to Santal Complet? ⭐️

I've come to appreciate the artistry of this more and more. There's a delicacy here in the portrayal of the red-cedar which in the sillage evokes steamy saunas and red-cedar chests. It's gotten a lot more woody over time. Still quite citrus-y in the grapefruit top, but something resinous underneath plus the red-cedar woodiness which leans a bit soapy along with the steamy citrus wafting off of it. I like this more each time I wear it. Today it's giving me some passing reminders of White Tea Elizabeth Arden (although these aren't clones). Love it still. Original review 08/24/23.

It’s one of those fragrances that feels effortlessly pleasant from the very first spray. It’s bright, fresh and smooth in a way that makes it hard to imagine anyone truly disliking it. There’s something so easygoing about it, a mix of citrus and soft vanilla that fits perfectly on warm days. It’s affordable, yet it performs surprisingly well, and I always get compliments when I wear it. It puts me in a good mood every single time. It’s simple, clean and uplifting, the kind of scent you reach for without thinking because you know it will work.

So I was gifted this perfume and this isn't the first Calvin Klein perfume I own, but the first one I bought (Obsession) was absolutely amazing and blew me away. Didn't know what to expect with a Calvin Klein perfume. Well got N2U and holy moly, blown away again, I can see how some other people might not like it, but I LOVE the citrus vanilla scent. It's not super heavy and not super overwhelming in my opinion and I just love how it brings on a really happy and just relaxing scent. I personally think it's just a perfectly blended Perfume

I think this is the first "proper" perfume I really liked. This perfume is a warm citrus. It sprays on with a lime-heavy scent until it dulls to a semi-sweet key lime pie kinda smell. I think it's wonderful, but I wouldn't call it the most feminine scent. It's a safe unisex, I'd say. I wonder what the male version of this line smells like. You can usually find this perfume at Burlington/TJMaxx/Marshalls/etc for $20. Super affordable and one of my go-to if I'm in the mood for a fresh scent. I recommend!

If you’ve ever been to The Whaler in Santa Monica and had their raspberry lemonade, you’ll know this perfume smells almost exactly the way the drink tastes (if that made any sense)! Only difference is that the perfume has a hint of vanilla added to it. This scent has easily become one of my favorites. I’ve been wearing it pretty much nonstop since I bought it! It has a really bright citrus opening and the dry down is a perfect mix of warm vanilla amber with a hint of that citrus still lingering.

This is the scent my friends wore in the 00s on nights out so I bought it for the nostalgia but I now love it for myself. It’s fresh, woody, confident and zingy. I didn’t always understand the hype 20 years ago, but I get it now. The transition from grapefruit and lemon to woody vanilla is delicious. Like a more citrusy White Tea, or a more masculine-leaning precursor to Devotion. It lasts a decent while and the cost is so low that I can (re)spray with abandon.
