With CK IN2U Calvin Klein demonstrates that he still knows what young people need.

Described as a fresh floral with a woody oriental base, the composition opens with fresh pink grejpfruit and bergamot with a note of red currant leaves. The interesting notes of sugar orchid and white cactus are in the heart. The base notes are: amber, red cedar and vanilla.
The perfume was launched 2007. The noses behind this fragrance are Bruno Jovanovic, Jean-Marc Chaillan, Loc Dong and Carlos Benaim.

Because the scent was split, separate for him and her, it compares none to CK One.
It was a bit of a disappointment to me..I gave it away to my 23 yr old niece

I think this is a young funky fresh scent. I smelt it in an airport 3 years ago and wanted to get it ever since, i just recently got a small bottle in a swap. So it goes to show that while I wanted it, I didnt NEED it bad enough to go out and get it myself. The citrus opening lasted barely a few minutes on me, which is good as Im not a huge citrus fan. The interesting notes of sugar orchid and white cactus in the heart are great and what I feel gives the scent it's funkiness. I don't really get much amber or cedar from the base, on me the mid notes are the strongest and, combined with a bit of vanilla, are the notes that really last. This is great playful scent, I wouldn't choose this for all occasions nor could I wear this everyday but Im glad to have a small bottle for every now and then.

I'm sorry, this is a sweet and sour plasticky mess. I like the bite of citrus, but then it vanishes into a typical jammy berry vanilla cough syrup. If you catch them at all, the orchid and cactus are weak. This really should be labeled a fruity floral.

On the plus, the lasting power is fleeting.

A friend showed me her bottle of this, and I spritzed on my arm to examine. Not knowing what the notes were supposed to be, I initially thought "grapefruit", but then decided that I could smell hyper-real mandarin alternating with incense. Now, looking at the listed notes I see I got the grapefruit right, but not much else (all in the nose of the beholder, perhaps?). I found this to be quite a strong, "modern" fragrance which I imagine could be very good at masking sweaty odours in a hot nightclub.

Another citrus perfume. Citrusy and a little spicy. Not bad, but nothing outstanding. Reminds me an Oriflame's scent Energising Aromacare, but CK is more sweeter and softer. In 2 U will be great for fresh citrus perfumes lovers. It's good for summer and spring time and for vacation or everyday and office use.

I find that while I like CK IN2U, the initial spray is a bit overwhelming. I like anything that reminds me of fresh lemons, but as others have said...it can be headache inducing. Kind of made my nose hurt. After the fragrance dries down, it becomes creamy, heady, and floral. There is something so precious about those middle notes, I've never smelled a cactus, so the combination was exciting. This is a very enticing scent. The more I smell it, the more it grows on me. I had originally recommended this for a hot day, but I think I have to revise that opinion. This fragrance would be absolutely perfect for a very cold and dreary morning when you need a little reminder that summer is coming.

Interestig fragrance. Nice, modern and clean. I don't like the add though, it just doesnt' seem "appropriate" somehow that a girl looking like heavily made-up 11 years old should be playing this highly sexualised woman.

A very modern, clean-yet-warm, yin-yang scent with a sense of freedom.

It starts out with a masculine, dry & sour-citrus bergamot burst....very similar to the original epitome of androgyny: CKone. I can understand why others find it captures the essence of a glass of bubbly. The grapefruit is very present (without being juicy) & I detect plenty of ozone - a pleasant chemically clean smell of line-dried clothes. Underneath this is a dry, white floral heart with a watery pale green feel (cactus?).

I thought that IN2U would remain in her boyfriend jeans & unbuttoned man-shirt all day, but gradually it feminises to become a warm, vanilla-based scent...quite a suprise! I, too, get a "cakey" smell, not fresh-baked, but a delicate, cool, vanilla & lemon waft from a cupcake stand filled with iced fancies. Suddenly she's all floaty tea-dresses & bare-faced beauty.

The lasting power is impressive & it really is a happy, uplifting scent. On my skin, a dry woodsy note becomes dominant after a few hours which keeps the masculine side of this fragrance alive.

Personally, I prefer CKone, because I find it to be a clearer scent. Both scents can be a bit invasive with your headspace but I like the way they encapsulate the spirit of a modern woman, happily balancing the male & female aspects of her nature & life.

I was truly amazed by this fragrance.

When I first tried CK IN2U, it smelt rather like champagne. It had that familiar sourish and fizzy like quality. However, since testing it again, (this time on my skin), I must say that this fragrance is rather sweet.

The opening of bergamot, grapefruit and currant isn't as loud on the skin as it is on paper. This scent softened into a sweet, creamy, cake-like fragrance, which somewhat reminded me of Hidden Fantasy by Britney Spears.

While on some people this fragrance is primarily tarty fruits, on others, as well as myself, CK IN2U is intimate and extremely pleasant.

I wouldn't say that this fragrance has great sillage, because it doesn't, however the lasting power is impressive.

I have definitely grown to like this fragrance, even considering purchasing it since discovering how different and soft it smelt when applied to the skin. I urge people to not buy this fragrance based on how it smells on paper or from the bottle.

Surprisingly, I like it. The opening is very lemony, then it transforms into a lemon cake. There are some green notes in there too. The problem is that I quicky stop detecting most of this scent on me. It's there, but my nose gets used to it immediately and tunes it out. For that reason it's extemely easy to wear, but I like to smell my own perfume. It's a safe scent, light, stays close to the skin, probably will not annoy anyone around you either.

This perfume smells unique, warm and kinda androgynous to me. I get noticed and complimented every time i used it. Maybe the down side is just the bottle just not look attractive as its smells. Highly recommended for a not-so-girly type=)

Don't care for this one. It's sweet but there isn't anything that really balances it all out. After reading all the great reviews it was ordered unsniffed. That was a mistake because it smells really artificial and something about it makes me queasy when I smell it..? o.0 If you didn't exactly like this one try CK IN2U HEAT for her, that one is freaking awesome!! ;')

I love this scent! I use it every day and everywhere I go. It lasts pretty long on me, though I must agree that In2U smells a bit masculine. Opening notes of this scent reminds me of Paco Rabanne black xs which is my favourite fragrance. A spray of In2U definitely brings me happiness.

the top note is pretty strong..sometimes makes me headache. but the middle note and base note r really nice. I like it. Just like people said. It definitely designed for young girls(18-25).

At first glance, the ingredients seem incompatible, and you can't imagine how they would work together well. But that they do. The fresh orange, or bergamot to be exact, is lent a creaminess not usually found in a citrus fragrance. This is probably due to the amber, which also gives it warmth, depth, and lasting power. The drydown is beautiful, and I can see wearing this all day long and well into the evening during summer. I'd say it's a unisex scent, although there is a men's version as well.

The bottle is cute, but might give the wrong impression of what you're going to find inside. It has more sophistication than the pop bottle design would suggest.

While I'm not fond of the initial blast of the scent, I very much like its drydown. The base is quite warm and creamy, with still a hint of all that lemon that was initially pungent upon first whiff. It does smell alittle masculine, but not so much that a man could wear it, for it's too sweet for a man, I think. What I like most about CK IN2U is the bottle, though... I love that the clear bottle is covered with white plastic. One can freely spray anywhere they please, and not have to see how much they've used up!, great idea IMO!!! :-)

I think this scent is modern, and young, but the citrus top notes are strong and a bit masculine. I like it a lot more in the drydown.

Agree with missk. I tried this yesterday, it reminds me of champagne immediately the 1st spritz, and i pick up grapefruit and vanilla. Before I try this one, I thought it would be swallow with no lasting power. I am 'quite' wrong, at least it lasts more than 2 hours on me, where I expect it not to last more than an hour. I guess the possible reason is that oriental floral (especially with vanilla note) last on me :) But not with those powdery floral scent.

Casual scent for a casual outing.

I like to wear this one in winter, because of vanilla notes. It is very warm, not too heavy.

At first the citrus comes on so very strong that it is offensive, creates discord with all the other notes-as it seems to be an industrial cleaner or a lemon furniture polish. After about 15
minutes to be sure, the scent changes.
After the sharp edges of the initial citrus blast wear down, the citrus stays on top, dancing about the other notes.
The notes combine after about an hour to create a fresh, fun, scent on top- meeting with a creamy, soft, gourmand swirl layer-the scent is not annoying, conflicting, not harsh. Some how, it is a bright "sunlit" scent that also makes you think wintery things like your favorite cashmere or fragrant tea, sweets to have during the winter! It is a pleasant little surprise that lasts quite a few hours!

A charming, youthful fragrance that makes me feel happy, like when the sun peeks out on a cloudy day. It's a simple vanilla/citrus/musk combination. I wear it on those days I'm feeling carefree and cheerful. No, it's not a groundbreaking perfume, but something about it just makes me smile!

I've been waiting to get this one for a really long time, and now its mine!!

I love this one a lot. I think this is a really young and femmenine scent. I dont think this one is masculine at all like a few reviews here said. IMO this is a really soft, creamy perfume. Wonderful for everyday use and for work. I adore the combination of the vanilla with the cactus which makes this scent so unique and modern.

Lasting power, at least one me- is good- about 5-6 hours. Low price also makes this perfume worth to buy!

Has been a while since I've smelt this perfume. Although I do remember it was a top contender against my current perfume. Its juicy and cheerful but not thin and light. Great for the balmy seasons. Don't like the bottle which I know isn't a good enough reason to buy it but I don't want to look at an ugly bottle for a couple of months.

I really like this one (not one of my favorites though. It's fresh and citrus but not fruity. Doesn't smell like any other perfume I know, but it is still everyday fragrance, not really for special occasions. I suppose In 2 you is aimed at a city, skinny, tomboyish chick girl :)

I've been trying and tring this one for months, and still haven't decided to buy one.... Is it the casual vanilla smell, that makes me resist? But each time I put it on, I keep smelling my wrist, and loving it....

Should I buy it?

i bought this perfume by chance, actually i had the 15 ml bottle, i bought two after i saw some reviews and i do not regret that. at the beginning it`s masculine but on my skin has something very exotic..the second bottle i gave to my little sister and she said her boyfriend loved it so much; the good thing is that is strong so you do not need a huge quantity

the bottle was unique and futuristic, very modern i loved to have it as one of my unique collection, but off course without knowing the smell its nothing...so, i tried, 1st spritz was surprising the smell so strong, which one is vanilla?? the sales girl said, just relax, the vanilla is base note it will "out" after one hour... so im waiting... here she come, yes, vanilla scents, so yummi without make you feel like a cake, a ultra modern fragrant, but still it was too strong for me :))

Paco Rabanne has Black XS, Vera Wang has Princess, Dior has Miss Dior Cherie. In the current trend of sweet smelling perfume, CK has no option but releasing CK In 2 U. Nice perfume and easily loveable, but nothing special. and easily forgetable, too.

I like this perfume a lot. Unfortunately, it has NO staying power. None. I spray it on and it's gone before I reach the front door. What is it with new perfumes that don't last? Most frustrating.

Today, my cousin said: "Well, isn't that rather masculine....?" To me, it was, at the beginning. But now that I fell in love with it this doesn't bother me anymore. I think that women should be "allowed" to wear masculine perfumes and the other way, if he or she likes them. In my opinion, especially Calvin Klein fragrances did a great job to stop these "stereotypes".

I like Marianne's description about the citrus notes with a warm, friendly base. I find that very true about this perfume. I love CKIN2U, it's very summery and sweet in a different kind of way, but also fresh. It's lovable and modern. I get bergamot in the beginning, and the dry down is sweeter with the hint of vanilla. This fragrance reminds me of sunshine because it's so uplifting. The smell kind of reminds me also of the color orange (like the color of this perfume's juice), if colors had a smell.

If you feel a bit blue some day, I recommend you to try this perfume! It´s really happy, joyful and optimistic. On me it have a bit of a cold, minty effect that is very refreshing. Not really one of my favourites, but I feel glad every time I wear it.
