Calvin Klein launched CK One Shock For Him as an Eau de Toilette in 2011, created by Ann Gottlieb and IFF for men. The opening is fresh and aromatic, combining the clean scent of lavender with the bright, sweet citrus of clementine, and a cool, aquatic hint of cucumber. This fresh introduction transitions into a heart where warm spices emerge: cardamom offers a sweet, aromatic warmth, while pepper adds a sharp, piquant edge. Green basil provides an herbaceous counterpoint, and osmanthus contributes a subtle, apricot-tinged floral nuance. The base develops into a rich and warm foundation, with a prominent tobacco note providing a dry, slightly smoky sweetness. Amber adds a resinous warmth, patchouli contributes an earthy depth, and general woodsy notes, along with musk, complete the comforting, lingering trail. The character is warm, spicy, and sweet, ideal for cooler weather and evening wear in casual social settings.
