CK One Summer 2008

I remember fighting with myself on multiple occasions about buying this one or not. I ended up smelling this one at least a dozen times at Macys, I never pulled the trigger on this one though. Introduced in 2004, I really liked CK one summer, I didn't end up getting that vintage either as I thought it was very good and overall the summer line was a great idea by CK. 2005, 2006, 2007, 2010 & 2011 were all amazing years and I bought them all. in 2008 & 2009 these vintages were a bit different from what they had been doing up to this point, although 2008 reminded me a bit of the 2004 vintage. I didn't think with it's minty, melon,woody musk notes that is was as amazing as the tropical fruit notes or previous vintages. Still you couldn't go wrong with any of these years, they were all very pleasant to the nose. And credit to CK for actually changing and trying different notes each year. Scent:8.5 Longevity:4 Sillage:5 Unique/Industry First:7 Quality:7 This did remind me of the original 2004 edition that started it all, but at the time it was too much of a change to buy it from preveious vintages. Looking back it actually smelled great, but I was very picky about CK one Scents. If you do get a chance to purchase this, anything 2011 and before were all special. Enjoy

I've owned this since well, 2008 and it's still one of the most uplifting scents ever for me! This transports me to a tranquil island paradise every single time! Another simple yet goody from CK. :) Synthetic? No doubt! Masterpiece? Probably not! Feel-good? For sure! Refreshing? Most definitely! Therapeutic? Yes doctor! For a fresh fragrance this has good durability on my skin, at least 6 hours during which it's still pretty noticeable. I love the colour of the liquid, a cool turquoise which is more blue than green, which really matches the feeling of the scent perfectly. I'm keen to find something similar as I'm getting towards the end of my bottle even though I've been using it sparingly, which is good as like the previous reviewer stated, if over-sprayed it can get a little too invasive to some noses ;) PS: Worth a try even if you think you don't like watermelon/cucumber accords, I thought I didn't but this is lovely!

I am in love with this fragrance. I bought it for my boyfriend (I think it's a very masculine rather than unisex smell), for his birthday back in 08, not knowing it was limited edition. He loved it and used it all the time. When I looked it up later and realised it was discontinued and (after disliking the new one for 09) I immediately told him to start using it moderately so it wouldn't run out, because I love it THAT much. There's barely any left but I refuse to let it all disappear, just so I can smell it every now and then.

Syrupy at the start, kinda tart, pretty good on the drydown. Definitely unisex. A fun fragrance. Smells like fruity hand-soap after a while. Multiple people have commented that it 'smells like summer', or even 'smells like a heated pool'. 7/10 (Probably smelled good for $50 or so in 2008 but for over $100 in 2018, you should really consider if the notes + performance are/is what you're looking for)

smells fkn incredible ---- like how i'd imagine a fruity cocktail would taste like ------ a perfect mix of fruit juices but with a very SLIGHT, very attractive non offensive 'grownup' musk undertone. cant believe my father used it as a toilet spray ---- WHAT A WASTE!!!! CALVIN KLEIN NEEDS TO BRING THIS BACK!!!!!

this juice is marvelous, a citrus, iced, fresh fragrance, special for summer. is very yummy, juicy, with its notes of watermelon, mint, cucumber and jasmine. just wonderful, every Ck One Summer creations are just amazing and very original, better that the others Ck One series..

Does anyone know where I can find this cologne? I had it, but am all out. The only place I can find it is on Amazon for like 60 bucks, and that was more than the retail price in 2008!, so I'm not going to pay that much for a 2008 frag. So any other places? Thanks

This is so beautiful.. Fresh but not citrusy nor bug repellentish Fantastic Fruity but not ripe watermelon but NOT OLD! Blue but not aquatic SSSSO CLEAN yet DEEP! I'd kill to find something like that with good projection after 2014

Such a fun, carefree, happy scent, I would love it if they brought this one back!

Actually i just felt some lily in this frag.

This was my favorite for years!

I bought it in Hongkong when I was traveling there. This is the second fragrance that I own, it impressed me at the first sniff, it was so fresh and feels like the ocean. It reverted all the negative impressions about perfume in my mind. From then on I became a perfume lover. --- Update: Today I almost use it up, and it's really a fantasitic perfume in summers. I think it can grow better on human's skin than on clothes, because on clothes, the citrus hardly give way to the delicious watermelon. Hmm... a fresh combo of cucumber and watermelon! (7/9/2010)

CK One Summer 2008 by Calvin Klein opens with crisp green cucumber, cooling mint, and aquatic watermelon. A sprinkling of cardamom lingers as it dries down to a light wood base. For me the watermelon is not the most dominant note, I mostly get cucumber and the cooling mint effect. I am loving it! Men and Women both have responded positively when I wear this scent, its definitely unisex and aromatically pleasing. The 2008 summer edition was on point, so fresh! I do not like all the flankers, but I really enjoy wearing this one!

I find this scent much more masculine and aggressive than classical CK One so I am wearing it only occasionally. Well, since I have had only this and classical CK One, I can compare only those two, and I can not find anything similar between them except the bottle. Btw, the letters on this bottle are wearing down after few touches, quite poor quality.

This fragrance is wonderful.Can smell the mint and Watermelon, great combination. My boyfriend loves it and actually wants to take my bottle! Super fresh, cool, carefree ... you can always expect good versions of Calvin Klein. I luv it.

Fresh with woody undertones, a more masculine-feeling summer scent, but it doesn't stop me from wearing it! Perfect for the Australian summer - possibly my favourite of the limited edition CK One Summers.

I bought this fragrance in a duty free before the departure to Barcelona. Hence this CK reminds me of this place. Its name tho' says it is a one time only. I wouldn't buy this again.

This one is lovely. I like perfumes that are not too feminine and this one is ideal for my taste. I hate to repeat my perfumes so I am in search of a good replacement for this one.

Excelente para cualquier día sandía y menta hacen un abuena combinación

a more masculine, wearable version of the 07 one
