DKNY Cashmere Mist Essence is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. DKNY's Cashmere Mist Essence carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

Divisive and mature, this one splits opinions right down the middle. Some find it a luxurious, warm signature, while others can't get past its challenging opening and perceived 'old-fashioned' vibe. Definitely not a blind buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate sillage and longevity mean it won't overpower, but the rich, mature profile leans away from casual or sport settings. Many perceive it as a confident evening or autumn scent, making it suitable for dates and formal events.

About

Cashmere Mist Essence opens with a bold, almost leathery jasmine that many find quite intense. As it settles, a smooth, creamy sandalwood emerges, grounding the floral intensity. The dry down is a comforting, warm amber, lending a sophisticated and enveloping quality that lingers on the skin.
