By the editors · 2 min readMelon opens with a cool, watery sweetness — less candy, more overripe fruit left in the sun. Lemon and freesia carry the heart into something brighter and more traditional, the freesia adding a soft floral note that prevents the citrus from reading too tart.
The base is the unexpected part of this fragrance. Incense and frankincense — unusual in a summer release — give the drydown a resinous depth that lingers well beyond the citrus. Peach softens the smoke and Virginia cedar adds structure. It plays cool and aquatic up top, then quietly becomes something more complex by the final hour. Among the CK One Summer series it is one of the more interesting drydowns.
