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.

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

DKNY Men opens with a zesty burst of mandarin and ginger, invigorating your senses like a cool summer breeze. As it settles, the heart reveals a fresh combination of juniper and ivy, adding an unexpected herbal elegance. The base wraps everything up in a warm, creamy sandalwood and a hint of maple, creating a cozy foundation. This scent is reminiscent of sunny days spent outdoors, perfect for casual outings and laid-back weekends, while still offering enough sophistication to stand out in a crowd.
