Launched in 2017, DKNY Nectar Love by Donna Karan is an Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Laurent Le Guernec. The composition opens with a burst of solar notes and nectarine, followed by the freshness of yellow freesia and mandarin orange. As it develops, the scent reveals a heart of jasmine and lily-of-the-valley, leading to a warm base of beeswax, vanilla, musk, cedar, and neroli. This fragrance balances sweet and fresh accords with an animalic warmth, creating a richly layered experience.

Application Tips
Apply DKNY Nectar Love with two sprays to ensure that its warm base notes have time to develop. The citrus top notes will dissipate within an hour, but the rich honey and musk will linger close to your skin for hours.
