The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2017 by Maurice Roucel for Donna Karan New York, DKNY Be Delicious Icy Apple is a fresh and vibrant fragrance that encapsulates the essence of crisp, juicy fruit. The composition opens with a refreshing cucumber note, which transitions into the bright zest of grapefruit and green apple, creating an invigorating and uplifting atmosphere. As it develops, floral notes like magnolia, lily-of-the-valley, violet, rose, and hyacinth add depth and softness to the fragrance, while woody and sandalwood base notes provide warmth and a subtle earthiness.
Due to its weak longevity and intimate sillage, apply this fragrance several times throughout the day for continuous freshness. It works best when applied directly to pulse points where your body heat can keep it warm and lively.
