You can tell this is a great scent by the smell. The good scents bring out those who feel special while leaving negative longevity reviews. Smells like dew on a field of grass. Michel Almairac is talented
beldilkdern – :
Oh yes, I do like this one. It’s like a burst of freshness, perfect for daytime spring and summer wear. Projection and longevity is average but it’s only a cheapie so I didn’t expect more from it. Bottle is hideous though.
armando – :
It would easily be in my top 10 of summer fragrances if it had better longevity. I have a huge collection so that’s saying something. It has such a wonderful summery vibe with its green/grassy, clean notes. The Basil in this screams summer without smelling like a garden salad like some other fragrances with basil or similar green notes.
If you have a large fragrance collection in this genre you may find Truth For Men to be redundant. Otherwise, it’s worth the current $15-$20 price tag. However, I suggest you take along a decant because this barely lasts 1-2 hours. Pity for a fragrance with such a beautiful summer composition.
Ssshhh the Truth is….. its weak.
Leoqa – :
Just got this one yesterday. Awesome “after rain” scent but unfortunately performance and longetivity are horrible :/
JainoEasene – :
One of cK’s Classics.
A lovely refreshing grassy, green, lime easy to wear summer scent.
Impossible to over apply, because it becomes a skin scent very quickly.
You may need to re-apply through the day, as the longevity isn’t the best.
Mevln552elipseskism – :
i blind bought this from marshall’s because the reviews here told me it was grassy; i like grassy. i sprayed it on in the parking lot and regretted my impulsive nature. it smelled green-ish but not grassy per se. it smelled very generic in that it didn’t smell like anything specific, it reminded me of other things i recognized but couldn’t identify by name.
now, several hours into the drydown, i’m getting an intense basil, which is supposed to be up in the top notes according to the note breakdown. it’s like,how much more basil could this be? the answer is, none, none more basil.
simple, beautiful, classic. every movie in every cinema is about basil. basil sells.
jem26 – :
Summer lime and mint perfume it’s really just a bit sweet.
But longevity is really poor too bad
qq – :
To cut this short, this smells exactly like a wet field of grass during the rain. It’s quite evocative of that scent and really fantastic. CK Truth for Women also smells like that, but more like a lush meadow with some flowers as well. I’ve been looking for a cologne to encapsulate the smell of rain and wet grass (“petrichor”) for a long time, and I have to say this is the greatest example of that in my experience. If I’m looking for individual notes though, I basically smell grass, leaves, a watery accord, cardamom, and basil. Since it’s very atmospheric, it doesn’t lean masculine or feminine but CK Truth for Women is definitely in the feminine direction. As a perfume, it’s probably my favourite from the CK line as it isn’t sweet at all (like CK Eternity is), isn’t as bitter as CK Euphoria, and isn’t as fleeting as other CK colognes. It smells like the word “melancholy”, but is very pleasant and inoffensive. Sillage is however only moderate but leaning light (as is the case with most CK perfumes) while longevity is also moderate. The bottle for this is very interesting, but the sprayer is really bad. However, I can overlook these issues because it provides a fantastic sensory experience if you want to smell like a wet field of grass during a rainshower.
4.5/5

Calvin Klein truth is a very under-rated gem from the house of Calvin Klein and I’m very surprised this isn’t more popular because it’s very mass pleasing and has gotten me some compliments from time to time !
Truth opens up with a very bright,Dewey,slightly juicy but fresh green note that to my nose is 1 of those fresh cut grass smells similar to Carolina Herrera 212 men but this is more aromatic and less musky. Truth is pretty linear but once it dries down the patchouli and sandalwood kick in making this slightly sweeter but also more earthy.
To describe this scent as a whole id say this is very green,natural smelling and this reminds me of the smell of fresh cut grass after a nice rain. For those familiar with the Bath n Body works lotion “Rainkissed leaves”, this smells very similar to that !
Performance— some people are saying this doesn’t last but on my skin I get 5-8 hours with above average projection. This scent is perfect for spring/summer use and would be a great scent for the office as it’s very inoffensive if you only use 2-4 sprays.
Overall rating— 8 out of 10 ! A personal favorite of mine that I’m positive if this was released by Hermes that this would be a hit ! A perfect Spring scent
Sidenote: This is a less is more fragrance ! 3-4 sprays mad if your indoors and 4-6 max if your outdoors. You may think because this is a light scent that it won’t be cloying but if over applied it can be headache inducing. BUT if done right it’s the perfect scent for the office that may get you noticed but will still be inoffensive for even sensitive noses
kub15 – :
When looking at it’s accords, I wouldn’t think I’d like it. I always look for the smells that have aquatic citrus and woody notes, BUT THIS , THIS IS MY FAVORITE SMELL EVER EVER EVER EVER!! To me it smells like an aqua kind of smell! Its my favorite PERIOD! And it’s cheap as sin
Oleg198004 – :
I’d forgotten about this one off and on over the years, as it was one I wore most often when it first came out. It was one of my first selective purchases. I’d started in high school with Old Spice, graduated to Cool Water and Drakkar Noir, landed on CK Eternity and Obsession when I was a little older, and wore most of the 90’s culture at some point. These were buys made on TV commercials, sexy ads and clever ads. Some I liked, some were just culture in my area. Truth was the first one where I went to buy the standard Obsession et al, and met a lady working the counter of a department store and she had me sample a few other things. Truth stood out as a less sweet, more refined smell than CK’s other offerings. It was less spicy than, um, Old Spice and so different than Drakkar and Brut and Polo, the other things I’d grown up with in the early 90’s. I bought it cuz I liked it, and wasn’t there for it specifically, I selected it. It was magical then, it was mine. It didn’t last long, it faded to a skin scent fairly quickly. This is where I learned the power of subtle scents. I went through a series of years wearing this where I would be confident to get a girl close knowing I’d ultimately hear “mmmm you smell so good”. I think this may be the most complimented scent I’ve ever worn, but sat so close to the skin only those I was very physically close with could smell it. But it worked, every time, I can’t think of a time it didn’t. And it really drew them in and I was nuzzled and sniffed and close many a time, and there’s probably a lesson in there somewhere. Years passed, Axe body sprays hit the market, things changed, I stopped using the stuff. I have a very old bottle still in my cabinet. About 4 years ago I wore some on a date. Sure enough on a tram ride across town we had to squeeze in tight. She got close and was drawn in, “mmmm you smell good”, and commence the nuzzling. Still I don’t wear it and the same bottle was opened a few weeks back, on a date (I don’t date often, despite the story) and “mmmm you smell good”. I’ve only been revisiting scents for about a year now. I like projection, staying power, moderate sillage, and have yet to find a genre I love. Projection and sillage are not Truth’s truth. And yet, from a “mmmm” and nuzzling perspective, this has been my most credited scent. Would it be more effective if it was a power house? I’d say probably not. It’ll linger real close after an hour, a good dab behind each ear on the pulse. Even my old bottle. A long review, but this has been an on again, off again thing with Truth for a decade and a half for me. It has served a singular successful purpose for me every time, so it deserves some words. Should someone be in the market for a scent that no one knows you’re wearing until you are close, and you want to be closer, this may be your Truth.
serg230693 – :
Hallelujah! I went thru many irritating cologne blind buys to get to this. I found it at Burlington for $25 for the 3.4oz. OMG so clean and fresh! no headache-y citrus fruit or irritating heady smells; just this can’t offend! I feel confident and clean and dare I say this but this has the refreshing notes from Dior Higher’s opening note or a Tommy Hilfiger cologne but without all the woods (Dior Higher) or heady fruits (Tommy). The fragrance has a cool minty green soft clean spicy vibe. And it don’t smell like Lacoste essential as another viewer saidLacoste is a beautiful Florida Everglades green with a touch of Chrome Azzaro. This is almost mint green a touch of moss and soft clean patchouli

Fresh. Like a cheap and less iconic version of ADG. I wear it in my gymbag.
cjh090Diobtetty – :
This was a gift for hubs. He seems to like this one more than CK Eternity, which he specifically asked for. I prefer it too.
This is a lovely fresh herbal scent that is quite refreshing in the heat. It’s fairly light, but has some strength to it. I’d love to find something a couple of steps up from this as far as longevity and silage and completely.
I wore it myself for the review.
Vitaliks_ – :
i think i fell in love within 10 hours. i received a vintage bottle this morning.
i like the green wet squeaky vibe. i usually tend to like the more incense/dark/heavy scents. but i think this will work even better in a hot and humid clime.
this strident feeling made me think of Sécrétions Magnifiques a little. just less obtrusive.
great scent for little money.

Nice scent here, typical of the CK house. Unfortunately for this scent, it starts fading after 30 minutes and is about gone from your clothes shortly after an hour. It’s also in the top 10 of designer fragrances with the shortest longevity.
After CK Be, Truth came out and then CK went through an average period of putting out just average colognes (see also CK free), Truth ended up being one of the average ones as compared to their high standards, they’ve since gotten back on the creativity boat with all the yearly summer scents, CK Gold, CK Dark Obsession, and CK man which is a big change from the light, citrus scents we all know CK for.

I was curious of what my female collegue in the office thought about the scent of truth. Surprisingly, she said side by side with versace pour home, this is even more easier and pleasing to smell even though versace pour homme smells more masculine. If only the performance is good though. Cant complain for how cheap it is!
tbn271Unlogrere – :
Safe scent for office, i’ve got 3 hour on my skin, very pleasent scent
Aaaaa04 – :
Smells like morning dew, and like other reviews said “freshly cut grass” which i like, for me this is as all rounder and a safe non offensive fragrance, some would like it, some would love it but very few would hate it. This scent lasts a good 4-5 hours on my shirt, to get the full potential out of its silage u would need a hot, +30ºC environment and u will project to around 4 feet for first 3 hours. If u are looking for a summer silage bomb then regretful u are looking in the wrong place.

boxiwideokyrs – :
Been wearing this for a few days to work. Summed up in a sentence : a pleasant, fresh, light, green, watery, summer, daytime, office scent. I can’t really add much else to what’s been said already. I found it hard to discern individual notes within the “greeness” and “wateriness”. I did get a clear whiff of cardamon at one point. Overall has a modern, urbane feel to it, a sort of elegant, watery, pale green from a distance. Rather like looking out through an office window onto a lovely but man-made stream running through a carefully planted garden, as opposed to actually being outside and in it among the greenery at close quarters. Nice though. I’m enjoying wearing it.

Blomeinvili – :
Truth is a bit of a strange one for me.
At first I thought it was a little weak and one dimensional, then 3 hours later it really seemed to find its teeth. This scent (for me anyway) starts out quiet and gets stronger as the day goes on.
Longevity for me was good, especially for a CK fragrance.
Very green (almost to the point of being over the top) but a great scent IMHO, quite different to other scents from this house. Just be aware that the user can get noise-blind to it so don’t over apply.
Would say this would be great for an outdoors guy, as someone who grew up in Ireland I find a certain comfort from these type of scents as I tend to go a little stir-crazy living in a big city.
Nice 🙂
olyan263 – :
Truth for Men by Calvin Klein is a herbal (or green) and fresh fragrance. This fragrance gives a feeling of being in a garden pruned or watered recently, it is very nice, very fresh.
I am not sure if it smells exactly the notes that are declared, but everything that reminds me is about grazing fields, meadows, grasses, ie, that smells of green, and very well done, it makes you feel energetic (the but me). I can not find many changes in its development, it is very similar from start to finish, but at the end its feels more woodsy.
Its projection is moderate to low, however unlike many other opinions about their longevity on my laster about 12 hrs. although close to the skin.
It is a perfect scent for daytime use both in spring and summer, best of all is that you can find very cheap and I do not think its aroma is so common now.
gony – :
I’m in love with this scent again. It has been almost a year since the last time I really use this, and when I spray this again, just wow! what a wonderful scent, fresh and uplifting.
Lasting power is very good, sometimes my nose can’t detect the scent after 3 hours but actually it’s still there. Last all day on my skin from morning to night, but usually I spray it again in the afternoon cause I like it too much.
Calvin Klein, please DO NOT DISCONTINUE this wonderful fragrance.
ERIXON – :
i love the scent, i really enjoy my second bottles. easy to wear, inoffensive, fresh, green, warm, flowery and aquatic vibe.
i rate it 9/10. very good sillage and it last a very long time. cheapness, longevity, sillage are equally done.
anchik39 – :
Green, green, green. Spring in a bottle. Not a typical Calvin Klien and no relationshp to other CK fragrances- a true breakout original for this house. Stock up, because the sales are not strong enough for CK to carry this much longer.
Main Notes:
Begins with an almost herbal note, but quickly develops to a full fresh green/fougere, after about 6-7 hours it dries down to a clean multi-woods. This is the only one from the Calvin K. house worth purchasing.
Season:
Spring and summer with the best results in a temp range of 80-95 F. Humidity improves the longevity and silage.
Association:
My association is fresh cut grass and a drifts of a lush wet woods.
Use:
Appropriate for daytime wear. Casual. Inoffensive and unisex. A pick me up, cool me down, freshen me kind of fragrance. Stand out from other “summer” fragrances. Blind buy is safe if you like green/fugere fragrances.
In the same feeling as Bond No 9 High Line.
7.9 out of 10.
serjo1982 – :
The scent is very nice (i mean the smell of it), but the performance is… VERY POOR! Man, i had… 12 sprays of it and i could barely smell it after 2 hours…
kiss-ka0311 – :
Like an Avon scent, only weaker. Had to douse myself with half a bottle before I smelled of anything. Incredibly weak. Scent dries down immediately to nothing. Waste.
nikkivol87 – :
Very pleased with this purchase i don’t know why this has so many negative reviews.
smells really fresh, herbal wet and aromatic.
i picture a back yard full of grass herbs and other green plants on a rainy day. this scent would smell like that just after the rain stops.
of the notes listed i mainly smell basil and fresh cardamom
perfect for spring or summer .Rainy or overcast days
projection and longevity weak. 7.75
makslu72 – :
Fresh and fresh again. It is my feeling when I put on this fragrance. The opening starts with fresh herbal scent that is a little spicy. It reminds me spring in mountainous area after after a rain in the morning. That is why I like to wear it in the morning.
Both longevity and projection are acceptable according to the price. It lasts 4 to 5 hours and all the time you can feel the projection. I think the silage is around your arm length which is enough for daily usage. Although after 5 hours It is needed to refresh, The scent cab be smelled on the skin with an slight projection.
I think It is wearable for daily casual activities such as doing sport, shopping, visit a friend. I’ve found it a little informal for wearing in the office or formal parties. Absolutely summer and spring scent.
All in all I like this fragrance. It is not something very special to me, but I like to wear it occasionally.
minesmikipt – :
That mossy, after-rain fragrance vibe that people here have commented on? Yeah, that.
I had been saving the bottle of Truth I own for some reason. Well – subconsciously maybe – I started wearing it during this very wet, humid summer we have been having here in the midwestern part of the USA. It is a perfect fit. This is not what I would call an energizing, pick-me-up juice. It is fresh, but in a melancholy and reflective way, if not “sad.”
Truth is a pretty flexible scent but the rainy season matches the effect and mood.

I had it to the past.A clasic CK frag for both sexes nothing to drives you crazy i would say just a safe option for a day to work.Doen’t last so long to the skin like all CK.It’s ok but i wouldn’t call it moderate more smells weak and you have to reperfume yourshelf every 2-3 hours
Deroxiumya – :
I’m not sure if I should be writing this as I won’t be saying anything too useful but I tested this because Truth for women is my all time favorite fragrance in the history of ever. I wanted to know if the men’s version is also that special. Well, it’s not. It’s nice for sure but I can’t get too excited. Smells so familiar, like something you would expect from Avon/Oriflame.

Red Cedar is not truly a cedar, but actually a member of the juniper family. It’s also sometimes called Virginia Cedar or Eastern Cedar. It’s the bushy, old time Xmas tree type cedars that are common in the eastern & southern U.S.
ZONT – :
i recently bought my 3rd bottle. this is an underrated CK. longevity is good. much better than those CK One flankers. a strange thing about CK Truth is that the scent has this “wet/damp” vibe to it. great alternative for summer and it doesn’t smell like those typical citrus based scent.
Antonioo2008 – :
Great fragrance, best for early spring and summer days. The scent is very herbal and refreshing.great for ages 17-30. Great for the average college student as myself. This scent is also nice for a rainy day in the spring and summer seasons. In my opinion this is the most underrated fragrance in my collection.
a1106 – :
Was giving a bottle of this by a friend
Had never smelt it before it
Really surprised me.
think it’s the best Calvin Klein

not as strong as eternity.
Could wear for any occasion
Its Fresh modern and unique.
Definitely a unisex fragrance.
Makscase – :
A chain of stores in my city has this on sale for $19.99 for the 50ml bottle. That’s because it is a crap fragrance and they have to sell it for dirt cheap in order to get rid of it. I really don’t understand all of the positive reviews for this, and how many people think it’s CK’s best – I think it’s their worst. No, CK One is their worst – this is a close second.
Versspeaday – :
The longevity on clothes are absolutely unbeatable. Wash em and it’s still there.
One of my favourites from the house of CK. Modern and fresh.
said555 – :
one of the best from CK. Hard to find though.Not so strong as Eternity not so light as Free. Kind of in between. Nice and fresh lasts long for a couple of hours it could be too faint for some people during summer but definetely wonderful in winter.But suprisingly this lasts for days if sprayed on clothes.
It’s a gem in the CK line ,if you like CK perfumes don’t let this one pass by.For me this is my best in CK line for men.
FEWRAL96553030 – :

Yes, there is. I have an uopened bottle of CK Truth right in front of my eyes and it says “Made in France”. Bought it in a Sephora drugstore in Poland to have more of the juice when I learned it had been discontinued. As the “Made in USA” one was bought at an airport abroad, I assumed the ones I had used previously (bought in Poland) were also form France, but can not be sure of that.

Ramzes577 – :
Just bought it yesterday and it was good but it has the most poorest sillage and longevity of any ck products, but on the other hand you need to spray it more frequently to the point that I bring the whole 100ml bottle in my bag because I don’t want to disappoint my self for having it.
bakabofHabs – :
Excellent fresh, clean fragrance, like a fresh summer rain. No sharp citrus notes, just soft clean ozonic-woody-herbal scent. I haven’t seen it for a long time, it’s hard to find.
By far the best CK men’s scent.
Great for younger men, 17-30.

Calvin bring this juice back on the market again.
I did never understand why this one discontinued.
A sensual fresh green scent but manly at the same time. Very distinctive and unique if i compare it with today’s scents of this house.I got always compliments.
If you find it and you are lovers of this kind of scents grab this no doubt.
Highly recommented!!
Serega001 – :
the meaning of freshness.good work ck..but like always very poor sillage:(
arriznell – :
not bad, but not for my husband. definately pick up the cadamon and basil. definiately has a herbal type quality to it. i think for a business man in a grey suit. thats what i get. an easy going business man who has fun during his lunch breaks. nice, but a little to sweet kinda.
my husband doesnt like it. wont wear it. hah.
infiniti080490 – :
Fresh grassy smell. Not bad, not particularly good either. I get it: the truth isn’t always that pleasant, is it? It makes sense. It’s so quiet and unoffensive that I might even have bought one, as a minding-my-own-business-doing-nothing kind of scent. Only if it would have some staying power and some sillage. Being as is is, only a skin scent, and short lived, no point buying this.
Update: after 12 hours I can still detect this. Faintly, but it’s there. So if you want to smell like grass for 12 hours at skin level, this is what you need. Could have it’s use, for those close encounters of the fifth kind upwards, as long as the opposing species has a thing for grass.
Cisksolivowzeea – :

Truth by CK, truly It doesn´t last so much time, the aroma is nice and fresh but the sillage is very poor, I rather Man by CK, it´s much wooden and longer than the other one, I feel very disappointed with this fragance.
Lefeemara – :
I had this a while back and its not bad. It is a green woody aromatic with decent sillage and longevity. perfect for daily use. I think its one of the better perfumes among the recent Calvin Klein releases, far better than IN2U and its million flankers. Cant really go wrong with this.
KABAN020586 – :
Amazing fragrance indeed! Will never disappoint you, be it the Projection or the lasting quality. This is very nice casual, semi formal fragrance. This surely attracts and stands out. Got good compliments for this fragrance. dont know if it is thee best CK ever but surely one of the best CK fragrances. Just be carefull that you dont overdo it as the synthetic note can take over and spoil it all. Still Its one of my favourites. Would also totally agree with few mentioning above that this fragrance is a proof that even great fragrances can fail and also that it is getting tougher to find it. Just could not get it from India. Had requested my Moms friend to get it from US and trust me even she could find it in the 4th Mall she visited for it in USA
Great fragrance indeed!
kp0k – :
I’m not normally a fan of Calvin Klein scents; I also like CK One Shock, but that’s it. This one, however, is not bad! It’s green – a synthetic green, but, overall, a wearable scent with (on me, with my scent-eating skin) good longevity. What’s especially notable about it is that it’s light and transparent in the style of a Jean-Claude Ellena-designed Hermes scent.
This is really a warm weather fragrance. It seems to come alive when it’s hot. When it’s cold, it just sort of – sullenly lurks.
My son wears it – fortunately for me he has two bottles and gave me one!
PETKIN-DIMA – :
Nice scent, but longetivity and projection is dissapointing.
Kuzmich – :
This cologne’s projection is very much strong. I could smell it even 1 day later
davo707005 – :
This is really fantastic, just like the women’s Truth. A contrast of depth and lightness, warmth and freshness. I think a woman could wear it, but the women’s Truth is so incredible you wouldn’t need to! I love men’s Truth on a man, and it’s truly a great compliment to the woman’s.

KingGrey – :
To me, this smells a lot like oxygene pour homme om opening. As it dries down, it turns a bit dryer and woodier, unlike oxygene thats very linear. I got it because of all the good reviews. I like green spicy frags and almost everyone commended the longevity and sillage. I however, find the projection to be very mild and subtle. The longevity is good though, about 6 hours on my dry skin. I’d recommend this to someone in their teens to early 20’s. Good date night/office scent. Very non offensive. I prefer eternity/ obsession/ck one shock as far as ck frags go. Not bad.
Edit: After smelling this on someone else, I loved it! It may be much stronger than the user thinks it is or this guy was wearing half the bottle because he filled an entire room. It smelled like a very damp, musky, sweet/green forest.

He is now nearing 18 years old and has vowed to never part with it. He has gone through bottle after bottle, and searches small fragrance shops to find it.
It is quite the amazing scent. It’s very fresh and uplifting. It is never overpowering or too much. It’s very clean, but alluring. This is my favorite scent for men, but I could never imagine it on any other guy in my life other than my brother.

Verde muy verde. Así se podría resumir esta fragancia
Aunque es fresca se diferencia de muchas otras tipo ” summer “.
El cedro y el cardamomo se pueden diferenciar claramente, aunque no consigo oler cláramente el pachuli.
Primaveral – veraniega, aunque podría ser perfecta para las personas que le cansan los olores pesados y/o persistentes.
No termino de entender cómo no es más conocida dentro del catálogo de CK, se publicita poco.
kolyan67 – :
I bought this for my son for his birthday, and got a chance to smell it on him for the first time yesterday. A woman’s perspective is this is an attention getter! I was very surprised by how much depth the cardamom adds. On him, basil, sandalwood, cardamom come in together. Then, the patchouli and juniper. Pepper is very subtle, adding an edge- which is good, because there is a sweetness to this fragrance. Make no mistake, guys- it’s fully loaded with testosterone! Contrary to some reviews, I would actually consider it to be almost a sillage monster. So don’t think because you can no longer smell it that we can’t. Truth definitely has attitude… Best fitting a man who is sophisticated, but also knows how to chop wood.
UPDATE: My son has recently become seriously involved with a beautiful Bosnian girl who insists that he wear this cologne over any of his others (1 Million, DSquared, Bvlgari Extreme). She LOVES it, makes her crazy!

Bottle cool.
Smell clean.
Exclusivity excellent.
It is not to die for, but it’s not totally failed.

A very fresh, albeit synthetic, grassy fragrance. Has a “bubbly” sort of feel, with the cool leafy-green note of basil in it. Lasts a decent while – about 5 hours on me. This one is my favorite so far of the Calvin Klein house.

I absolutely LOVE this scent. I’m a 22 yr old girl and I even give myself a little spray of it if I see it in shops. Bought It for my boyfriend for Christmas too! The smell is so addictive, really unique, nothing quite like it really. I’d never get bored of it, and it seems to last so much longer than any aftershave/perfume I’ve ever come across. I once knew someone who wore this scent all the time and I thought it was purely his own scent that smelt so amazing…until I recognised the smell at the duty free shops in the airport. I have had a few people comment that it seems quite unisex, so maybe its not the typical musky masculine scent that some may be after, but it drives me wild!

i hav noted that this perfume has always got mixed reviews, but tis is for those who like green and fresh fragrance, my experience with around 3 truth bottles is that its very aromatic and green but fresh so i hav always got tons of compliments , the longevity is extra ordinary, the projection is awesome, and after 3 hours in sun it turns a little woody but with a fresh and green hint .

No doubt this is an aromatic fougere. If you enjoy the scent of fresh cut grass (that is the opening note). If you enjoy the soft woody smell of forest aromatics (that is your dry down). Projection is medium and this makes for one of the best office daytime fragrances. Longevity is amazing for a Calvin Klein fragrance (average 6-8 hours on skin and 10-20 hours on clothes). It is green and clean with an under warmth of the wood. This is definitely a mans scent, but is appropriate for any age range.

I understand the hate this fragrance can evoke. The green in this fragrance can be strong to the point of bitter. I think the reason this happens is
