What does Summer Basics smell like?
The top opens with orange, plum and hyacinth, so citrus and fruit set the first impression. The heart brings lily of the valley, orchid, freesia and rose, adding a soft floral layer. Amber in the base sweetens it gently. Aquatic and synthetic touches keep the overall feel clean and bright, while a faint gourmand note stays in the background. It has a close profile to Calvin Klein CK One (Eau de Toilette) and La Rive Glow.
