This woody, spicy fragrance from the house of Calvin Klein was launched in 2007. The name is simple, MAN, and it is advertised as a very masculine and sexy perfume. Lory Singer, the VP of Global Marketing and Coty Prestige, said that “Calvin Klein Man is intended to be iconic”. The perfume starts with a fresh wave of rosemary and citruses (bergamot, mandarin orange) combined with airy notes of violet leaves. The heart is made of bay leaf, nutmeg, mint, insence and peppermint. The base introduces intense notes of cypress, Guaiac tree, sandalwood, amber and musk. MAN is packed into the bottle in minimalistic style - CK style. Ann Gottlieb (Firmench) designed this modern perfume, which is available as 50ml and 100ml edt, together with a whole range of cosmetic products.
