I bought this for my grandchildren to give to their mother at Christmas. They were happy and excited and my daughter loved it and had been wanting some Be Delicious for some time. It smelled so nice on her. Shipping was fast and it arrived in perfect condition. Thank You!!!

Be Delicious by DKNY is a lovely summer scent, filled with earthy notes of green apples, melons, pears, cucumbers, grapefruits and white grapes. I reach for this one when it's hot out. The scent is very fresh and I find myself imagining it actually cools me off, the way a tall cold fruity cocktail would. Top notes start with a strong whiff of grapefruit, which mellows quickly to melon, cucumber, apple and pear. The floral and woody bottom notes include soft violet, tuberose, white amber and a hint of sandalwood. My husband actually bought me this perfume, on a cruise ship (hey - duty-free). That's a pretty hefty recommendation, as his nose is very sensitive to heavy scents. He actually *likes* this perfume on me. This is my default summer signature scent. I get lots of compliments when I wear this perfume spray, but only for a short while (the scent wears off in under an hour). I found if I spray my hair and clothes, besides my skin, it lasts a bit longer. DKNY also makes a lotion-based version of this scent and I would think layering it would really be helpful for increasing the wear-time. Personally, I am too cheap to be bothered. When this runs out, although I love the scent, I will probably seek out a summer fragrance that simply lasts longer. The spray bottle itself is quite charming with its green apple theme. It's easy to hold and easy to apply. You don't have to hold your hands in a weird position to get the perfume out, and also comes out in a nice even spray. As summer turns to fall and there's more of a bite in the air, I do prefer the spicier Red Delicious version of the various DKNY "apple" scents. It's a bit more sexy and sophisticated (imagine seasoned apple cider instead of crisp, virginal apple juice); the scent also lingers longer.
