Ck1 Palace, the new fragrance with aromatic notes, from Calvin Klein. It is by drawing on the legacy of CK One, a true icon of the 90s, that Calvin Klein had the idea of creating a new fragrance with an intergenerational and multicultural spirit. In 2022, Calvin Klein embarked on a new collaboration, partnering with the London skateboard and clothing brand Palace.
In 2022, the London clothing and skateboard brand Palace signed a new collaboration with American luxury giant Calvin Klein. And thus was born CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein, blending British reserve with the American Cool spirit! Presented in a very minimalist bottle and paired with extraordinary advertising, navigating between London and New York, CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein proves to be one of the most anticipated unisex fragrances of the year. A breakdown of its composition.
The very refreshing opening of CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein
CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein is a striking fragrance that brings a true concentrate of energy to everyday life. Like its predecessor, it relies on citrus to capture attention. In this sense, it appears as a kind of modern eau de Cologne, whose freshness is initially built around citrus nuances. Lemon unfolds its gentle bitterness here. It is paired with mandarin, with its very sun-kissed breath. Rich in multiple facets, it proves to be as fresh as it is sweet, joyful and sugary. Its sparkling breath is also coupled with sweet pea, a flower generally used in fine feminine perfumery. It immediately creates a subtle breath in the top notes of CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein.
CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein, a more aromatic and fruity heart
At its heart, CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein becomes fruitier. Plum amplifies its gourmand character. Fibrous, juicy and sweet, this raw material cannot, however, give rise to a natural scent in a fragrance. In other words, its odor is entirely reproduced synthetically in a laboratory before being incorporated into CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein. To bring a greener aspect to the whole, Calvin Klein also decided to add a touch of apple, reproduced with synthetic ingredients. The whole is then enriched with violet leaves, known for their green, powdery and slightly earthy breath. Through this combination, CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein instantly places itself in the subtle and highly nuanced register of fine perfumery.
The woody base of CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein
Gradually, CK1 Palace by Calvin Klein becomes warmer and more comforting. Its base notes are more woody. Oakmoss unfolds here a smoky, strong and earthy impression. It almost gives the impression of a walk through a damp undergrowth. Sandalwood, meanwhile, sits more in the background. It is commonly considered a muted note in fragrances. However, it gives them greater tenacity. Creamy, velvety and balsamic, it is finally paired with cashmere wood, an ingredient that could not be more sensual!
