Launched in 1992, Donna Karan by Donna Karan is a Floral fragrance that embodies the designer's vision of effortless elegance. Created by IFF, this scent combines an array of notes to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The composition opens with osmanthus, orange blossom, and apricot, leading into a heart of ylang-ylang, carnation, and jasmine before settling into a base of suede, amber, and sandalwood. This fragrance is neither overly sweet nor too sharp; it strikes the perfect balance between warmth and subtlety.

Application Tips
Donna Karan develops slowly on the skin, so one or two sprays is sufficient. The base notes take about an hour to fully bloom, making it ideal for daytime wear as well as evening events. Avoid layering with other fragrances to let its complexity unfold naturally.
