The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2021, DKNY Be Delicious Coconuts About Summer by Donna Karan captures the essence of an island getaway with its vibrant and sun-soaked composition. The fragrance opens with Coconut Nectar, a bright and refreshing top note that evokes the tropical paradise it's meant to evoke. This is complemented by the soft, floral notes of Magnolia in the heart, adding a touch of elegance and warmth. The base note of White Musk rounds out the scent with a powdery and musky finish, creating a lasting impression of comfort and charm.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to pulse points for an immediate burst of tropical freshness. The fragrance lasts well throughout the day, making it ideal for both casual outings and more formal events.
