Description
CK One Shock for Him, launched in 2011 by Calvin Klein, is a dynamic amber-spicy men’s fragrance that captures the essence of youthful urban energy. The scent opens with a cool, invigorating burst of clementine, lavender, and cucumber, accented by a surprising “energy drink” accord. At its heart lie warm, aromatic spices including cardamom, pepper, basil, and a touch of osmanthus, which add depth and intrigue. The fragrance then dries down into a richly masculine base of tobacco, musk, patchouli, amber, and ambrene wood, offering a long-lasting and charismatic finish.
Ingredients
CK One Shock for Him EDT is formulated with denatured alcohol, water, and a dynamic fragrance blend to deliver its bold, amber-spicy scent. The aromatic profile includes common fragrance components—and potential sensitizers—such as geraniol, linalool, benzyl benzoate, citral, benzyl cinnamate, eugenol, alpha‑isomethyl ionone, citronellol, limonene, and benzyl alcohol. To preserve the olfactory performance, the formula incorporates UV-stabilizing filters like ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane, and ethylhexyl salicylate. Additionally, colorants such as Ext. Violet 2 (CI 60730), Red 33 (CI 17200), and Yellow 5 (CI 19140) give the fragrance its distinctive appearance.
