DKNY Golden Delicious ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 25 June 2011 17 Comments

DKNY Golden Delicious

Donna Karan will launch DKNY Golden Delicious,* a new fragrance for women, in August. The apple-based scent is a flanker to 2004's Be Delicious.

The notes include orange blossom, mirabelle plum, Golden Delicious Apple, white rose, Casablanca lily, vanilla orchid, muguet, musk, sandalwood and teakwood.

DKNY Golden Delicious will be available in 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum and in matching body products.

(via diarydirectory)

* I am fairly sure they've already done a fragrance under this name as part of a gift set, so I don't know if the scent is actually new or not.

    very fruity. I had red delicous for men, I pestered for it for Christmas a few years ago and looking back on it now it’s not fantastic but still it’s ok.

    I like the whole gold look but I’m not expecting much from this.

      I like the gold ok, but I’m just not an apple perfume fan.

    They’ll never run out of apple types to style into a fragrance flanker.

    IF you actually want a list, I’ll start one (and if it was a rhetorical question to highlight the fact that they’re too many, I’ll still start one because I like listing things and this is a fun game):

    Be Delicious
    Be Delicious for Men
    Delicious Red (or Red Delicious)
    Delicious Red for Men
    Be Delicious Picnic in the Park
    Charmingly Delicious (LE)
    Red Delicious Charmingly Delicious (LE)
    Delicious Night
    Be Delicious Eau de Toilette
    Be Delicious Charmingly
    Be Delicious Fresh Blossom
    Be Delicious Juiced
    Be Delicious Fresh Blossom Juiced
    Delicious Candy Apple Sweet Caramel (LE)
    Delicious Candy Apple Juicy Berry (LE)
    Delicious Candy Apple Ripe Raspberry (LE)
    Now Golden Delicious

    Also, LE packaging like Shine and Pop Art.

    Surprised there’re no Delicious Night flankers.
    Anyone have another?

    Robin, saw a Be Delcious gift set circa 2007 or 8 called “Golden Delicious” at an outlet. It included a limited edition shiny gold bottle of the original Eau de Parfum plus three rollerballs of Be Delicious variations I haven’t seen elsewhere, including

    Juicy Apple
    Spiced Sex-a-Peel
    Sweet Floral

      Yes…I remember seeing it long after it had come out. Who knows if this is that fragrance, or if that was the regular in a gold bottle, or…?

        I saw the back of the box and it indicated that it was “Be Delicious Eau de Parfum” so I’m thinking it was just a special bottle, same juice. The little rollerballs tho … those seemed new. In spite of the bad pun of a name, would like to have tried spiced sex-a-peel.

    The Casablanca lily makes me think there may be some link between this and my precious, too-soon-killed DK Gold. I will have to try this one!

    Hi Robin, Found this in the news today about this –

    All I can say is very bad timing with the stock market plunge, but WOW!
