The first time I tried CK One I didn't like it too much, I didn't understand why there was so much fuss about this fragrance. At that time I was very young and did not know the different nuances and magic of aromas. I felt it more like a masculine fragrance, without making any further distinctions or considerations.

A few years ago my sister gave it to me and I told myself; "Ugh, CK One..." But I decided to give it a try. I found a very clean fragrance, one of those that makes you feel good. Everything is softness, from citrus to spices, which balance the sweetness of the fruits. The green notes and green tea make it very fresh, but at the same time it also has a powdery nuance that gives it the rose and violet. When it dries on the skin a sweet amber tone appears, which is very attractive and this is what I definitely fell in love with.

Its sillage is moderate and doesn't last too long, four hours on the skin, then you continue to feel it a little closer to the skin. However, it is very economical and if you feel like it you can reapply it without skimping.
Although everyone can wear a fragrance whenever they feel like it and like to enjoy it, One seems timeless to me. In winter it is weaker and in summer it intensifies more, but providing the freshness and cleanliness that characterizes it.

Simple, youthful, casual EDT, but sober and balanced at the same time. Its slender bottle with curved and straight lines reveals its interior. When I tried it for the first time it was what I expected and since then it has not been missing from my collection.

It is a fragrance that can hardly displease or bother anyone, both those who use it and those who perceive it.
Citrus fruits, green leaves and cilantro make the output slightly intense. It immediately starts to flow and you start to feel the dry jasmine and cleanliness of gardenia, rounded out by iris and white musk.

Along with the middle notes, until the end, I perceive a fresh, sweet and slightly woody nuance. It is a nuance that is very familiar to me because I have it in the area where I was born and live and I know how to distinguish it. It stands out, especially, on summer nights, making you feel a pleasant and fresh aroma wherever you go. I mean fig leaves. Although it could be the result of the combination of cassia leaves, violet leaves and cedar. In any case, if that were the case, the result would be very well achieved.

Moderate projection. Good fixation. Longevity of eight hours on the skin.

Very feminine and flirty perfume. Its bottle, in my humble opinion, is not the most delicate or the finest in the world, but I suppose what it has tried to convey is that with it you will feel beautiful and you will attract attention. Its design invites you to carry it in your bag, accompanying you wherever you go and touching it up as if you were touching up your makeup.

At the top the citrus makes its way, but soon you feel a fairly dry raspberry at first and then it becomes juicy. The truth is that it is a note that I perceive throughout the evolution of the perfume, in addition, I feel it accompanied by a subtly liquorous cherry.

As for the floral notes, the most notable is that of jasmine.

The combination of spices results in a minty undertone that makes the aroma feel fresh.

In the middle of the middle notes you begin to perceive a dulce de leche that is not at all cloying, accompanied by creamy sandalwood and that both complement each other very well.

Finally, a vanilla with licorice appears, providing its woodiest facet.

Remarkable sillage and durability of 5 hours to feel it a little later next to the skin.

In short, it is an aroma that smells good and is pleasant, but that does not differentiate or stand out from the others.

The perfumer who created this fragrance, Christine Nagel, was inspired by his images.
and olfactory memories to take a tour of the Peloponnese, until you reach Cythère, a beautiful Greek island, where herbs and olive trees abound.
This aroma transports me to my land, in the southeast of Spain. Where there are also beautiful olive trees, pastures, aromatic herbs and fragrant lemon trees.
In this perfume you will not find floral notes or green notes, you will find a citrus-woody aroma accompanied by different nuances that make it a peculiar and different aroma, it may not be to everyone's liking, so I recommend trying before buying.
The output of this perfume smells like lemon, a sweet lemon with notes of mint that makes it extremely pleasant. After a few minutes, pistachio appears with accords of cumin, it is a slightly strange transition, since the lemon fades away completely to give way to the spicy phase. Little by little the woody notes of the olive tree appear and I believe that this phase is the soul of the perfume. It is a smoky but very pleasant wood. Then, the magic arises, unexpected aquatic notes appear, sweetened by that sweet lemon at the beginning of the perfume that reappears and prevails until the end of the perfume's life, along with the smoky notes.

The projection is not very noticeable, but on my skin it has good hold, the aroma lasts up to six hours, after that time you perceive it more intimately from time to time throughout the day.

I think it's a good option if you're looking for something different and if you like smoky aromas.

By way of personal experience I will say that I had never tried Arab perfumes. I blind bought Sheikh Al Shuyukh because of its reviews and because I wanted to try something different. My first impression when I smelled it on my wrist was not pleasant, but I decided to leave it and let it sit on my skin. From time to time I felt it and each time with a different nuance and I asked myself "where does this delicious smell come from?", until I could no longer stop bringing my wrist closer to my nose.
It is addictive and has something that hooks you and smells very, very delicious.

At the top you can feel the saffron and cinnamon very strongly. The rose, I perceive it, a little further ahead. It is like an oasis before the intensity of the spices.

Patchouli is very powerful, but caramel balances that power. I also perceive a nuance of honey and sweet raisin wine. Until you feel a smoky but at the same time sweet vanilla, which ends up hooking you. And just when you think the parade of aromas is over, you encounter delicious, creamy sandalwood.

When you use this perfume it is like being in a wooden house, wood that smells new, with the fireplace lit. I perceive it to be very cozy and warm.

It has a great sillage, with very good performance and extraordinary longevity, almost twenty-four hours on my skin.
