The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2012, DKNY Sweet Delicious Tart Key Lime by Donna Karan is a vibrant citrus gourmand fragrance that captures the essence of freshness and sweetness. The composition opens with bright lime and bergamot, giving way to the warmth of sweet notes and aromatic basil. The heart features orange and mandarin, balanced with the subtle spiciness of ginger and neroli. The base rounds out with violet leaf, adding a green, slightly earthy undertone that keeps the fragrance from feeling too heavy.
This fragrance is best enjoyed close to skin, as its top notes are bright but fleeting. Apply two sprays to the pulse points for a lasting impression throughout the day. Avoid layering with other strong fragrances to let the citrus and sweet accords shine.
