The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2017, DKNY Men Summer 2017 by Donna Karan is a Woody Spicy fragrance that embodies the essence of an urban summer. The composition opens with bright bergamot and orange, giving way to a heart of basil, cardamom, and juniper berries — creating a fresh spicy aromatic profile. As it settles, warm cinnamon and musky notes blend seamlessly into woody accords like sandalwood, cedar, and moss, providing an earthy foundation that grounds the entire fragrance.
Apply two sprays to ensure that the initial burst of citrus and basil is balanced by the deeper woody and musky base. This fragrance blooms over time, so it’s best worn in layers rather than a heavy application.
