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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

This flanker of DKNY Be Delicious lists just three notes: apple, lemon and grapefruit. That keeps the whole scent in a crisp, juicy, citrus-and-fruit lane, with the apple giving a fresh bite and the lemon and grapefruit adding zest and sparkle. There is no heavy base or sweet cushion listed, so expect something light, bright and clean rather than rich. It is a feminine fruity scent made for warm days, casual wear and anyone who likes a cheerful, uncomplicated fragrance that smells like a fruit bowl.
