The Name Says It All!

CK One Essence earns some initial points because the marketing here is on point.
By now, Elixir, Intense, or Absolute versions from a brand can be something completely different from the original product - but not here.

At its core, Essence is a more intense, deeper version of the original, while largely retaining the lightness and DNA of the famous predecessor.

After the zesty opening, it goes in the direction of a lemon tea with quite strong lemon and green nuances, if you will.

In the base, you can sense the pepper and woods a bit, and it develops slightly towards sunscreen, but maintains the lemon note throughout.

I find the longevity and sillage to be just as "poor" or typical as with any flanker.

First of all - yes, there is enough difference that this product has its place. It is indeed different - without being better or worse. For me, it feels a bit "more mature" and modern, but slightly loses its OG charm.

In case of doubt, I would prefer the OG, but I also find joy in this flanker.
