The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

DKNY Men Summer 2013 was launched in 2013 by Donna Karan and crafted by perfumer Jean Claude Delville along with IFF. This aromatic spicy fragrance opens with a fresh, zesty burst of citrus and marine notes, creating an invigorating atmosphere that captures the essence of summer's vibrant energy. As the scent evolves, warm spices and a subtle touch of rose add depth and warmth, making it a perfect blend for both day and night.

How to wear it

One or two sprays on pulse points will keep this fragrance fresh throughout the day. The citrus and marine notes are most prominent in the first hour, so it's best to let them settle before heading out. This scent pairs well with casual daytime wear but can also transition into a more relaxed evening vibe.
