The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

DKNY Be Extra Delicious, launched in 2020 by Donna Karan and crafted by perfumer Jean-Marc Chaillan, is a vibrant Floral Fruity fragrance that captures the essence of joyful indulgence. The composition opens with pear and black currant, offering a burst of freshness that transitions into a heart of freesia, peony, and lily-of-the-valley, creating a lush floral bouquet. The base notes of caramel and ambroxan add depth and warmth, enveloping you in a sweet, comforting embrace.

How to wear it

For best results, apply this fragrance to pulse points. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, so you may want to touch up after a couple of hours to maintain that initial burst of freshness. The warm base notes will linger longer and provide a comforting trail throughout the day.
