CK All by Calvin Klein

EDIT: Two years after my first review, I bought it again. Well, I can’t stand it. It smells like a mess of sour oranges with a hint of ambroxan. It’s insidious, acidic, spicy, and has a tropical orange tone that makes my hair stand on end. I was prepared for it not to be nice at all because Calvin Klein colognes are already a bit of a joke (how many do they release a year, eighty?), but honestly, I found it pleasant. The opening is like CK One but sweetened with citrus peel and a touch of white flowers. The dry down is a citrus-floral mix that’s very summery, sitting above the classic white t-shirt scent of the original. After the blast settles, a manageable, creamy, and not cloying tangerine takes over. Finally, the grapefruit flower enters, which is like grapefruit but with the taste of tender fruit tree wood, a citrus note, slightly bitter/spicy as only tree flowers can be, with nuances of shower gel and foam, not soap. In the end, this note has an excessive presence along with the bergamot, which can place CK All more on a man’s skin than a woman’s. An innocuous and familiar perfume I’d use in spring without issues. (I forgot to mention I also smell like one of those industrial musks, dynamic and clean, characteristic of laundromats and some popular body milks).

UNISEX FLOWER SHOP: I bought it two years ago, applied it five times, and gave it to my wife because it was too floral for me… True, it’s unisex and has a very marked citrus note at the opening with notable freshness and a characteristic sweetness of tangerine fragrances. A few minutes after applying it, the floral notes become noticeable; particularly the jasmine takes strength and leaves behind the citrus sensation. After more time, a light vetiver is perceived, not the Guerlain one, but an aquatic and soft one like Armani Prive. It works very well in medium temperature climates; you can tell it’s based on CK Everyone, a kind of fresher update of All with the DNA of the original CK One. Excellent option for spring, informal, fruity, and cheerful; if you like unisex fragrances and what you perceived in the legendary CK One, this can complement your taste. Recommended sprays: 5 to 8. Fixative rating: 8. Trail: Light. Intensity: Medium.

Bought it at half price for 200ml after seeing good reviews on YouTube, but it disappointed me. It starts with very light, creamy mandarin and bergamot—a shy opening that vanishes in minutes. Then comes the floral heart, very feminine with lily and freesia. After an hour, it turns unisex, like creamy soap and a clean scent, lasting over six hours on the skin but with poor projection, only noticeable to those standing close. It smells exactly like L’Occitane’s Shea Soap. I’ll use it as a cologne after showering for that fresh scent, not as an eau de toilette. I expected something more citrusy with better projection like CK ONE.

Good feeling. It’s pleasant and clean, sharing that sense of cleanliness of Lacoste White, but it’s not the same. It gives a good relaxing experience, smells like Nivea cream with citrus, some moments bitter and others sweet. It reminds me of my childhood, those scraped knees from running… and not missing the Nivea cream my mother would rub on them. This All brought back good memories. Note: It doesn’t resemble CK One at all. I like them equally, both CK All and CK One.

I love it and it’s one I’d buy again. Smells like tangerine infusion with white flowers, perhaps with a creamy touch, very clean. For the price, the longevity is decent: about 4 hours of moderate trail, then another 2 hours on the skin. I don’t see it as particularly feminine; if you like to smell clean, anyone can wear it. P.S.: It doesn’t resemble the 2021 version at all; I have both and prefer the CK All much more. The 2021 one smells like peach shampoo.

I love it; I’d buy it again without hesitation. Smells like a tangerine infusion with white flowers, maybe a creamy touch, very clean. For the price, the longevity is decent: about 4 hours of trail and then another 2 hours close to the skin. It’s not super feminine; if you like to smell clean, anyone can wear it. P.S.: Nothing like the 2021 version; I own both and prefer CK All by far. The 2021 one smells like peach shampoo.

Yes, yes! I like this fragrance; I notice it’s quite floral and I like it much more than One and Bee. Anyone who wants to buy it shouldn’t be swayed by stupid comments; try it at a perfumery and draw your own conclusions. Fragrantica should have a filter and delete comments from people who use Axe deodorant and talk as if they were Alberto Morillas.

I admit it smells good, but it won’t blow your mind. I love bergamot and tangerine perfumes that last, but this feels like just another generic one. I’m not sure it’s worth the CK price tag, especially here in Argentina. It’s totally unisex; reminded me of Natura Kaiak Ultra, which is marketed as feminine but still feels unisex.

It lasts well on my skin, but as a citrus lover, I noticed that after two hours, the floral notes dominate and I perceive it as more feminine than masculine. The initial projection is pleasant, but it’s not for a man who wants to project himself as such…

I don’t usually write reviews, but this time I couldn’t hold my tongue. CK All is nothing but bad. I put it on and when I got home, I washed myself with soap to get rid of it; it bothered my throat. Either this or nothing, and nothing is better.

I bought it blind and the first use gave me a bitter scratch in my throat. I let it sit and used it again on a rainy day: that’s when the flowers came out. It became my favorite fresh scent, and I can’t imagine rain without it now.

I love it. I bought it six or seven years ago and it’s just as good as the first time. On my skin, it’s super long-lasting and leaves a pleasant citrus scent, like lime and lemon. I’ll keep using it for work.

It’s citrusy and evolves from lemon to orange with a very prominent jasmine. Buy blind without regrets; quite the opposite. Recommended for those seeking citrus with that clean soap scent.

At first spray, it smells a lot like the classic CK One, though it changes later. It’s as if they added several citrus notes, highlighting the orange, along with some white floral notes.

I love it, very fresh and pleasant for everyone. Being citrusy, it shifts from lemon to orange and back to lemon at the end, always wrapped in very pleasant white flowers.
