The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, DKNY Be Delicious Crystallized is a Floral Fruity fragrance that captures the essence of freshness and vibrancy. The composition opens with the zesty burst of grapefruit and yuzu, balanced by the crispness of cucumber. These top notes give way to a heart of magnolia, apple, lily-of-the-valley, tuberose, rose, and violet, creating an intricate floral bouquet that is both sweet and delicate. The base notes of musk, woody notes, sandalwood, and white amber add depth and warmth, grounding the fragrance in a subtle yet enduring way.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance as soon as you step out of the shower to allow the top notes to blend with your skin's natural oils for a more vibrant effect. Given its bright and fleeting opening, it’s best to reapply after three hours if you want to maintain its fresh energy throughout the day.
