Our verdict on DKNY Red Delicious: Favourite

A divisive fruity-floral, DKNY Red Delicious splits opinion between 'deliciously juicy' and 'synthetic shampoo'. While some find its red apple and berry combination uplifting, others are put off by a 'sour' note, proving that one person's fresh can be another's headache.

Its fresh, clean, and fruity profile makes it highly suitable for casual wear and daily office use, especially since many reviews mention it being non-offensive and 'shampoo-like'. The moderate sillage and longevity mean it won't overpower, but its playful character might be less fitting for very formal events.

About

Red Delicious opens with a burst of sweet, tangy raspberry and exotic litchi, immediately evoking a juicy, vibrant freshness. As it settles, a prominent red apple accord emerges, softened by a delicate rose and a touch of grounding patchouli. The dry down introduces a warm embrace of vanilla and amber, with a subtle leather nuance that adds an unexpected depth to the fruity sweetness.
