Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom EDP
This flanker to DKNY's original Be Delicious is a fresh, clean, and broadly pleasing fruity floral. While some find it a bit too generic or 'shampoo-like', many adore its youthful, uplifting vibe, especially for spring and summer.

Our Verdict - Palatable EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom - a citrus fragrance led by Grapefruit, with floral depth. It captures the gist of the original at a fraction of the cost, rendering a touch simpler and quieter.

Season and Occasion Fit

DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its light, inoffensive fresh and floral character makes it ideal for office wear and casual daytime activities. While its moderate projection prevents it from being a date night showstopper, it's a popular choice for 'gym scents' and spring/summer daily use.

Palatable

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The citrus character is happiest in spring and summer - the freshness reads bright and clean in milder weather; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its citrus, floral signature leans toward casual and daily wear - approachable enough for date use without overwhelming a room.
