Be Delicious
Magnolia gives Donna Karan Be Delicious Eau de Parfum Gift Set its lift, a clean white flower sitting over an opening of tart green apple, cool cucumber and sharp grapefruit. The effect is crisp and watery, green long before it is ever sweet, and it stays that way as the fruit settles. The apple is tart throughout, never candied.
Tuberose, lily of the valley, rose and violet hold the heart, and they stay fresh rather than turning rich, the violet adding a quiet powdery note. Sandalwood, white amber and musk make the base soft and warm, close to the skin, which is where the fragrance finishes. The movement runs fruit to flower to musk, and the green, fruity and aquatic accords define it, backed by ozonic freshness, citrus and a light fresh spice. The violet and the musk are what make the dry-down feel soft rather than sharp.
Maurice Roucel composed Be Delicious in 2004. Donna Karan launched her label in New York in 1984 after leaving Anne Klein and added the younger DKNY line in 1988.
Moderate longevity and moderate sillage mean it stays near the wearer rather than reaching across a room, and it suits professional wear as readily as a casual day. It is best in summer and spring and still wears in autumn and winter, for casual days, work and evenings out. It comes as a gift set.
