Description

Donna Karan gladdens her fans by introducing a new limited-edition scent, Be Delicious-Red Delicious. Perfume composed of apple note surrounded with violet leaves becomes sweeter with a glittering start thanks to a splendid bouquet beautifully harmonized leaving us under the impression of having a real, juicy, ripe apple in front of us. Red and white bottle still looks like an apple perfectly matching the tantalizing character of this fragrance. Red Delicious mixes the notes of champagne, lychee, raspberry, apple, rose, amber, musk and vanilla. It is created in 2006. The nose behind this fragrance is Maurice Roucel.

    Red ”Be Delicious” smells for me like raspberry yogurt with litche. Apple in a background. Sweet but fresh and yummy. No headache after this fragrance.

    I got a 30 ml bottle as a gift, a little over three years ago and there’s still over half left.
    Which is shocking for me because I spray perfume like a mad woman. So I guess I don’t love this perfume but I don’t hate it either.
    It has a really synthetic heavy syrupy feel to it, like if I overspray and sat in a hot car I just might suffocate.
    I just sniffed it and I know why I don’t reach for it much-it smells like straight up fruity shampoo to me, I’d prefer smelling like perfume
    the silage is heavy on me, and I love the cute little bottle

    I’m wearing this today. Do any of you think this may have been reformulated? Some of your descriptions don’t sound like the scent I’m wearing. I find I like it even more than Be Delicious (Green Apple) It doesn’t smell sweet on my skin at all. It’s more of a perfumy smell. It suits me.

    To me, the scent of Red Delicious is better suited for shampoo/body wash. The fragrance is fresh and very green. I pick up on the fruity notes with ease, then the rose and leather, and lastly, the amber & patchouli. I don’t get any vanilla at all. Definitely not a fragrance I would wear, and to be honest, I wouldn’t use it in a shampoo/body wash either.

    This opens with a sharp, almost spicy scent, reminiscent of the sharpness that you experience when you’re peeling the skin from a red apple. It reminded me of Marc Jacobs Dot, a highly disappointing blind buy. Mercifully, the spicy-ish scent fades away and leaves more a of a red apple smell behind. I’m still deciding whether I want to give this one a place in my collection or not.

    I used to call this ‘red apple’ from DK. For the longest time, this smelled to me like..a red apple. That was for many years, and many years ago. But recently, every time I was in the store, the tester bottle of this was seemingly staring me in the face..”TEST ME..TRY ME AGAIN..”..it seemed to be saying to me, lol..so, test it, I did. And as sort of expected, this smells different to me these days..be it hormones or whatever, this is not quite like I remember..
    At first application, I get a reminder of ages past (growing up in the late 70’s/early 80’s) of those fruity scented sweet lipglosses..not a bad thing..a happy memory blast from the past is always a nice thing. But I wasn’t sure a fruity/juicy/sweet as candy lipgloss is something I want to smell like all day. I just feel ‘too old’ for that (and this is coming from someone who will occasionally wear Britney Spears Fantasy).
    Anyhoo, that sweet/fruity/juicy/lipgloss scent of years gone by fades after about 15 minutes, and then I pick up the (synthetic) apple. That apple scent is faint, and then about 30 minutes after applying, this ultimately dries down for me to a basic ‘perfume counter scent’. I agree with the reviewers who say this does not last long.

    I like the way this smells. But it barely lasts on me an hour or so

  8. :

    I think it is quite similar to “be delicious”, but it is a bit easier to wear. The opening is not that bad as “be delicious” has, but this smells synthetic, too. I never felt myself sexy when it was on my skin, so one bottle lasted ca 10 years. For me, it was a sporty scent. Finally the bottle is empty, and I will never meet this perfume again.

    I bought this for my husband mainly, as I recently discovered he loves apple smells especially apple shampoo. Not sure I would ever wear an apple scent otherwise. This one opens with a big alcohol blast it’s a little hard to be honest. After it settles on the skin I get mainly the apple and leather. A very intriguing combination to be sure. As long as my hubby likes it, that’s all that matters to me lol decent silage will update on longevity.

    I can smell apple with a lot of sticky heavy sweetness. I was hoping for more freshness, but no. I think it’s potentially headache-inducing.

  11. :

    This was my signature scent when it was introduced. It was fresh, bright, fruity without being overly sweet. I use to get a lot of compliments wearing it. My then 7 year old niece who is now truly a beautiful young lady told me how she would always know I was coming as she could smell ‘my scent’ before I even appeared. Unfortunately, fast forward a few years and I repurchased a 2nd bottle but I did not feel the same way about it anymore. My love affair with the DKNY Be Declicous scent range seems to have come to an end but I am one to never say never.

    I am glad I finally finished this one. It is too fruity and sweet for me, and it is not light and fresh but dry and rather strong. Synthetic leather note in combinatie with fruit and red berries can induce headache. For me it was a winter sweater perfume. Longlasting.Don’t overapply.

  13. :

    Reminds me a lot of the original but redder, I suppose. Nothing to write home about but pleasant for sure.

    I used to like wearing this during my “fruity days.” I just picked it up for the first time in a long time to take a sniff, and it really does smell like shower gel. It is quite sweet, and strong. I’ve out grown it. It smells rather juvenile to me now (no offense). I wouldn’t mind a fresh apple scent, like the real thing, but is far from it.

    Long lasting, moderate silage. Smells great and appley 🙂 very fresh and crisp. I like it for fall and summer time. One of my favorites by far!

    I can’t tell which is which.
    DK Be delicious is just the same as Red delicious.
    Maybe this is a bit stronger, can’t really tell.
    I like it because it’s suitable for all occasions. Specially for work: non-offencive.

    I just got this, and wore it to bed last night. I really don’t care for this. It really does smell like a super strong shampoo smell, and not in a good way. It’s strong, I can attest to that, and I usually like strong perfumes, but this just has a weird blend of scents to me. I can detect the apple, but there is sure a whole lot of other stuff going on too, and not in a good way. I don’t usually have this strong a reaction to a perfume, but on me, this is a definite “no”.
    It does have a super cute bottle though. This was the first DKNY perfume I’ve tried, and now I’m rather leery of trying the others.

    I used to have this fragrance, but for me it became just a tad too fruity. I never used up my bottle, but gave it away instead. Since then I’ve been a little weary of purchasing any of the DKNY scents, since to me they all seem to have the fruity aspect. The fragrances are gorgeous, but I’m just not a fruity perfume type of person

    I love this scent! I have been wearing it regularly, but on an interesting note, today I used The Body Shop Satsuma Shower gel, and then sprayed the DKNY as usual. Today the raspberry notes really sang, and the scent has lasted longer.

  20. :

    At first spray I loved this, so I quickly spritzed a couple more times and headed out for the day. By the evening, I had a splitting headache, felt incredibly nauseous and was literally counting the minutes until I could jump in the shower and wash the damn stuff off! It’s incredibly synthetic and sickly. It was a literal relief to smell my familiar Oscar De La Renta today. Very dissapointed in DKNY. Will not be wearing this again any time soon.

    I found a 100ml bottle for only €30, so I bought it blindly. Based on the notes listed here, I thought I would like it.
    I certainly recognize the original Be Delicious, which I find to be a bit overpowering at times. This is very sophisticated when you first spray it; my sister actually said she smelled three or four notes right after eachother. I definitely smell champagne, which isn’t listed here, but is listed in other descriptions of this fragrance.
    On me, it dries down to a kind of earthy smell, probably the patchouli. I think I do like it, I’ll wear this all summer and I think it will be great for being outdoors all day 🙂

    Apples. That’s it. This doesn’t evolve on me whatsoever. It reminds me of a Victoria’s Secret apple body spray I wore in the 90’s. This doesn’t smell bad, it just isn’t what I want to smell like.

  23. :

    al principio es chispeante, acidito y por cierto pica un poco en la nariz, me a hecho estornudar un par de veces.. pero con todo y eso me gusta.. no lo veo como defecto, es parte de su personalidad..
    Después, en mi piel su aroma refleja una manzana roja jugoza y muy muy cítrica, su presentación es más que ideal, es un perfume para día y claramente para primavera y verano.
    En mí su estela es muy fuerte y su duración es de horas, horas y horas..

  24. :

    Ohhh like them much. I smell there a little champagne notes with raspberries, so young and so fresh. Like a soda drink or something. Sweetness with bubbles.Lether and patchouli notes on me does not exist.

  25. :

    This smells like one of those shops for cheap “shoes” made in China – a distinctive chemical smell of synthetic leather and rubber, mixed with air freshener. This goes away after a while but if you only think of the leather in Bottega Veneta by Bottega Veneta, Red Delicious starts to feel almost ridiculous.
    If you don’t have anything extra classy in mind to compare it with, it’s a nice little fragrance like the others of its line.
    Suitable for spring, summer and any unpretentious setting.

  26. :

    I paid all of 19 aussie dollars for a 100 mill flacon of this in an edp. It’s exactly like ‘Appeliscious’ a cheap ‘Arabic’ fragrance I purchased for 5 bucks in an Arabic supermarket. It’s identical. Only the Appelescious flacon is rather cheap and tacky looking. It’s the fragrances mentioned in this blurb that remind me of Katy Perry’s ‘Royal’ fragrance the red one. Smells like toffee thats not yet set. Heady too. Old fashioned humbugs.
    I might return and actually write something other than the prices paid for the flacons. Ps I purchased the Perry fragrance for 19 aussie dollars as well for a 100 mill EDP. Bargains.
    Cheers T.

    Blind bought.. OK for cheap priced perfume.. Nothing special just YUMMY..

  28. :

    4 out of 5

    I bought this blind and I so wish I hadn’t. One spray of this was more than enough. What I got from it was a synthetic, red fruits smell of the kind you get from a cheap fabric conditioner. I was hoping that it would settle down on my skin and that the other notes would unfold, but nada – just a one dimensional, tacky red fruit stench. Absolutely vile and it gave me a thumping headache.
    As it’s just about untouched, I could give it to somebody else, but I don’t think there’s anyone I dislike enough.

  29. :

    This smells like a very expensive shampoo, i definitely get the berries rose and some incense.No apple really, well maybe a sweet red juicy apple, but prefer the tart fresh smelling be delicious green, this seems a bit cloying, i will wear in Winter time.

  30. :

    I have this one. And i am quite dissapointed. I thought it would last longer. This one is good for a spring summer day time

  31. :

    Really really not sure on this fragrance.
    You do get fresh apple-y scent from it but at the same time it’s really warm and not refreshing in the slightest in my opinion! Almost smells cinnamonny on my skin which is really strange and that mixed with the red apple just smells like Christmas! Not necessarily a bad smell, just not my kind of perfume unfortunately.
    On the plus side, the bottle is really cute and its quite cheap (or mine was about £25 for 100ml)
    Sold it on eBay and probably won’t be repurchasing!

    I have all of the DKNY Delicious fragrances. I fell in love with Be Delicious and started collection them! This one is wonderful. I actually like it better than my Be Delicious Original. For sure Apple all the way. I love fresh and fruity scents in general. My favorite is the Golden Delicious one, but this would be my second favorite. I do not like the floral one at all. This one lasts all day and I do get complimented every time I wear it, even though I can’t smell it on myself sometimes everyone else still does!

  33. :

    I love this one. It smells sweet and juicy and “red”–like maraschino cherries. It’s mature and sophisticated without being old ladyish.

  34. :

    4 out of 5

    A unique fruity fragrance that’s crisp and clean enough for everyday wear. It reminds me of the beginning of autumn when the weather is starting to cool down after a hot summer. Without trying to make a pun the smell really is ‘delicious’, almost good enough to eat.

  35. :

    4 out of 5

    This fragrance is fresh and simply lovely. Not too sweet. On my skin I get more raspberry, greens and soft rose. A great day fragrance providing you go easy on the spray. For some reason this perfume makes me feel happy. I like it .

  36. :

    5 out of 5

    To me Red Delicious is Be Delicious’s big sister. It has all of the juicy freshness, but a more mature, warm spicy bottom layer. The substitution of cucumber for raspberry also makes it less watery and more interesting. Fun, fruity and works in all seasons.
    I’m gutted that this is discontinued now as it’s the first perfume I ever bought and a firm favourite.

  37. :

    hello fun 🙂
    a fun perfume… an apple filled with the very sweetest of juices. Mouth watering sweet apple juices. I likey 🙂 Long lasting, head turning… fruity fruity everyday fun into the evening.
    I detect most of the notes of course the berries and the vanilla not so much patchouli.. I think it’s a great find , happy to have it and to wear it… summer here we come.

  38. :

    I thought that this would last a bit longer on me but still the longevity was pretty good. It’s just too bad that the top notes fade quickly when it reaches the heart notes. It immediately gets softer. But then again I think the top notes holds on for quite a bit on me.
    This fragrance takes you to a garden full of apple trees. Like you just took a bite from a juice apple. Delicious. This lasts for about 4 hours on me before it’s practically gone. But I guess you could spray some more on every 4 to 5 hours.
    The green DKNY one has this spicy touch to it which I don’t like at all. This one is more soft, but without losing it’s freshness. I like it for day or work. 🙂

    This is a gorgeous fragrance that I wear at work to keep me in a happy mood. It’s sweet, fruity and uplifting. I love it!

    Red fresh juicy apples…. It has been a while since I sported this scent, but noticing the sweet litchi with raspberry and apple made me want to revisit…. The noticeable ingredient that I hadn’t detected in the past came with the leathery amber dry down, which makes this scent fair game, for day or night!……

  41. :

    5 out of 5

    Red delicious is better than the be delicious green one. It’s more fresh and crispy. Got it together with Be delicious and I quickly gave that one to my friend. Red delicious actually does smell like red apples. Very fruity but in a light way. Longevity could be better.

  42. :

    4 out of 5

    I must point out that the notes on this page *used* to be correct. I have no idea how or why, but the champagne accord has been swapped out for leather, the musk has been swapped out for patchouli, and the red apple has been swapped out for green. “Aldehydic” is no longer listed in the main accords, probably because of the note swap. Red Delicious is, however, indeed a beautiful sweet aldehyde fragrance which perfectly mimics the way champagne tickles one’s nose. The lychee and raspberry are so tart and juicy, you almost forget the red apple for a moment. The soft, warm amber-vanilla base reigns in the sweetness and plays up the golden champagne accord from the top notes. The projection is moderate and the staying power on skin is about 4 to 6 hours, while on clothes it can last all day.

  43. :

    3 out of 5

    Strong red apple is the main ingredient in this punchy fruit salad. After a few hours it quietens down and I get hints of soft rose and something that smells like cucumber, but the apple dominates this fragrance from start to finish. I own the original Be Delicious and the Golden Delicious, and although I do like this one, it’s my least favourite out of the three. I also find that on my skin it smells too similar to the green Be Delicious to really justify owning both of them. When I bought this I intended to use it as my summer work fragrance, but now I’m reconsidering as I fear the strength of the crisp fruitiness may not be for everyone.

  44. :

    A great compliment to my wardrobe. Definitely one of my favourites.

  45. :

    5 out of 5

    Red Delicious is one of those rare perfumes which make you want to talk to random strangers who are wearing it. A student of mine wore it once and I complimented the receptionist thinking it was her. She gladly said it must be her staple Chloe. Both of us realized a few minutes later it wasn’t. We asked my student what perfume she was wearing and found out it was Red Delicious. The website says it smells of apples and I was worried it would be too fruity for my liking. It was fruity at all. It’s a sophisticated feminine scent with hint of fresh rose, vanilla and patchouli. Easily one of my favorites !

  46. :

    4 out of 5

    In my opinion Red Delicious is a juicy and floral fruity. Its cheap and its easy to find. But the fragrance dries down too soon although the top notes are still there. Nice bottle❤

  47. :

    5 out of 5

    Initial burst: LOTS of litchi and raspberry! Very juicy, but with an odd base note popping through that I initially thought made it smell similar to celery. I guess it’s how the patch is interacting with these juicy fruits. This lasts a few mins then…
    Drydown: rose, a vague leather note. Very much a skinscent at this point.
    Longevity seems pretty low on my skin, but maybe I just go anosmic to these notes quickly once they’re on me?
    FB? Not for me. Will probably trade my sample.

  48. :

    4 out of 5

    The apple note is way too overwhelming.

  49. :

    3 out of 5

    I got a 100ml bottle for a fab price in a sale and am glad I have it. I don’t actually have anything like this in my collection so to me it’s unique. It smells like fresh sweet apples – it’s zingy, sweet and uplifting. A very spring/summery perfume – I wouldn’t wear this in the winter.

  50. :

    4 out of 5

    I got this one after I bought the original because I tried it on once and thought to myself that they were different enough to buy them both. I did not love this one. I understand that it is meant to imitate a red delicious apple, so the crispness is going to be dialed down abit from the original, but there was absolutely no crispness to it at all! I like the extra fruitiness on the top, that definitely reminds me of rows and rows of red apple trees ready to be picked.
    But then it fades away into this musty/mold-like scent. Ick! Apples rotting on the ground! It turned out that if I wore this during a day when I knew I would be outdoors most of the day, I could handle it. However, after two years and still half a bottle left, I decided it was just taking up shelf space, and I gave it away.

    i bought this in October-a 30ml bottle.love the bottle.the scent is very fresh and tart.i reminds me of nina by nina ricci.my bottle is almost over now as i used it abundantly during my vacation in Durban.somehow this suits the seaside scene.will definitely buy a new bottle soon.

    boring. too heavy fruity

  53. :

    4 out of 5

    To me this just smells like someone has sliced open a juicy apple and sprayed perfume over the top of it. It’s nice but not my favourite. It’s a very cheery scent though and quite uplifting. Even though there is no violet note in this I sometimes smell it and my mum once asked me what I was wearing when I was sitting next to her because it smelled like violet. That being said you probably shouldn’t go for this (without testing) if you read this and like violet perfumes because it might just be our noses that smell it. Everything is definitely overpowered mostly by the apple anyway! 🙂
    Fantastic lasting power 🙂

    Nice but it bored me quickly.

  55. :

    3 out of 5

    Smells like the original but more watered down with alcohol and a hint of lychee. I blind bought it as it was on sale, most times the reviews by the Fragrantica community help me blind buy like a pro, unfortunately, this was not the case. Returning it.

  56. :

    3 out of 5

    I find Red Delicious to be quite watery. Perhaps on account of the litchi. Before looking at the notes I thought maybe there was a cucumber in this fragrance.
    The leather is kind of novel, but I don’t feel like it’s really doing anything for Red Delicious.
    I can see this fragrance being appealing to those who dislike very sweet fruity fragrances. It’s mild and casual. The fruit notes smell like what they are, not candied versions of themselves.

  57. :

    5 out of 5

    Smelled like unripe, watery strawberries and cucumber, and then a strong sting of alcohol. i really wanted to like this, since it was a present… but unfortunatley, it was not to be

  58. :

    much beter than the green one.softer and fruit more not that ouful cucumber like the green be delicious

  59. :

    4 out of 5

    Crisp, clean and beautiful. The scent is the exact opposite of those perfumes that are thick and cloying.
    It’s the younger sister of the original “Be Delicious”. Exact same base concept, just with a twist. They don’t smell much alike, but it’s very obvious that they’re based on the same idea. This one is a bit sweeter, but still refreshing and oh so summer-appropriate. Very fun scent, good for girls both young and grown up.

  60. :

    International friends told me I smelled like fresh cucumber when I was wearing it. A local colleague of mine asked me whether I just stepped out of bathroom, which meant it smelled soapy to her. Well, I suppose it’s a clean fresh fragrance. I like to use it for office or sport days. I don’t think it’s suitable for hot date.

  61. :

    4 out of 5

    Nice and very elegant. Don’t be afraid of fruity part, Red Delicious in my opinion is more floral. It is not mentioned but on me it has gardenia smell as in CH 212.

  62. :

    5 out of 5

    This was the first perfume I purchased myself. It opens fresh and fruity, but I cannot for the life of me remember how it dries down. And I can’t get the last drops out of the bottle…
    It’s a little more stereotypically feminine than the original Be Delicious; more fruity and fun. I used to prefer the red one to the green. Now, going by the top notes, I would rather wear Be Delicious for a casual day than Red Delicious.

    sounds good!!deliciiious rapsberry its my fav ,cresp and clean for hot summer!

    I wanted to like it so bad, but I don’t. 🙁
    When I first sprayed it , It smelled like fresh raspberries which I liked it was just wow, and 10 minutes later the apple came out and it was .. horrible. I can’t explain but somehow apple perfumes smell bad on me, kind of sickly weird smell, can’t even explain.

  65. :

    5 out of 5

    Fresh crips apples and sweet vanilla notes. A very slight hint on leather and patchouli. Slightly powdery on the dry down. Great for the summer however I have worn this all year round. Mostly wear during the day but have worn it on occasions during the late and warm summers evenings. Cute bottle. The scent lasts for hours. One of my favorites. A lovely playfull scent.

  66. :

    3 out of 5

    Soapy and quite dry. I do smell the leather but I don’t think this perfume has good chemistry with me. In the paper I still smell the soapiness. If you want to smell like you just came out of the shower then I recommend you try this.

  67. :

    3 out of 5

    What I get is melon rather than apple, tropical … all the way. Don’t see where the leather comes in (fine by me though). It’s my favourite summer-sunshine-feelgood scent. You just have to let it settle for a while as at first spray it’s very strong. Longlasting too, I sprayed it at bedtime and still smelled it next morning. As for sillage : I bought it because a woman passing me smelled so great that I asked her what she was wearing. For me it was “must get this”. It’s “rounder” and sweeter than the green one.
    PS : review for EDP

    This is a jeans and tshirt kind of fragrance definitely not for dressing up. It is very sweet. I am amazed at the staying power. The ingredient I was most hoping to pick up was the leather and it’s just not there. 🙁 But I will still use it and I bet my daughter would like it as well.
    Happy Perfuming!

    My husband just got this for me and he was so pleased with himself. I thought oh no what am I going to do I do not like these apples from DKNY they give me a thumping headache and they are very sharp like knives going through my head. I smiled and acted pleased and in my heart I was very pleased he had thought of me and tried to buy something nice not for any particular occassion just because he felt like it.
    I sprayed it on and thought oh no, no no and NO!! it was honestly like Elnet hairspray. Since I already had sprayed it I went out to the lounge and we watched a show and had dinner. As the night went on this perfume softened on me and it was really nice unlike the other apples in the range. I gave those a fair chance but didn’t suit my skin but this one made friends with my skin perfectly. There was only a very smooth apple smell like as someone else said apple pie with a hint of patchouli in the background. I love it now and will always try to have a bottle although it does to me smell like hairspray in the first few minutes but I let it settle and it is really perfect for me. Quite expensive when my hubby got it and I think it is a limited edition which is a bummer for me. Lasts a long time on me I only have to respray it at night if I am going out after having it on during the day and no headaches!!

    I have to admit that I didn’t like it that much when I first received it but after an hour, it started smelling like apple pie and a bit of cinnamon. It’s so delicious that I spray it on all day when I wear it! Too bad it doesn’t last very long though, I’m emptying the bottle and it was expensive!

    the leather note is very strong & dominante !!!! I don’t know how people smell apples !!!! smells like a scented rubber toy

    Nice, sweet, you can definitely smell the apple. It’s crisp and fresh smelling. A good day or summer perfume. Not my cup of tea though.. and it left me coughing when I caught a whiff of it.

    WOW. This perfume is really fruity (but not overly fruity that its sickly) its just the right balance of a sweet fruity scent. Its was a really refreshing smell which would suit summer very well. I was impressed to say the least !

    This perfume hated my chemistry or something because it smelled awful on me :(. I’m so disappointed because I love anything that has an apple scent in it. It even smelt manly on me, what the crap 🙁

    On paper, I actually kind of like Red Delicious, which is surprising because I don’t like Be Delicious at all. I detect fruity and leather notes in this, which makes this scent warm yet fun.
    UPDATE: I tried this on skin instead of paper and really disliked this scent. It’s a very strong, patchouli like fragrance. While, it was fruity on paper, it’s an overwhelmingly unpleasant scent on skin.

    I love this perfume. I had it for a very long time, and I find that the fragance lasted very long, compared to others. I loved to wear it during the winter, even though it’s a very summery scent. It is sweet and crisp. I also liked the male version.

    I like this scent a lot! It smells like red apples and fruits and I really was shocked that I would like this scent since I wasn’t a big fan of the be delicious

    I bought this as a blind buy. On me, the opening is a sweet berry–very strong in the raspberry note. Shortly after (maybe 5-10 minutes), it gets joined by a heady patchouli with a faint hint of rose. I get no apple from this fragrance at all, which is a disappointment. An hour after application, it smells a little like a salon quality hairspray with berry and amber notes. It also wears pretty close to the skin at this point. I like it okay, but it’s a fragrance that has to be reapplied over the course of the day. In the future I will wear it in the evening, and I think closer to fall when the weather starts to cool.
    Edit: I haven’t touched this fragrance since the middle of summer. This last week the weather had cooled considerably, and I decided to revisit this fume. I have to say, for me, timing is everything with this frag. What was so-so in the humid summer is now captivating in the breezy, brisk fall-like weather we’ve been having. It completely lost the hairspray quality I mentioned before. I still don’t get any apple (must be my chemistry) but the sweet floral berry, vanilla, and patchouli sings. I’ve been looking for my autumn fragrance fall-back, and I definitely believe it is this 🙂

    I think DKNY red delicious is a sweet fragrance, not in a gourmand way but sweet and fresh. But too bad it didn’t last long in my skin.

    Love this one! It´s sweet but soft and it´s long lasting. I have used 2 bottles already and purchase me a new one for sure, never get tired of this one. That`s rare for me, i have just a few scents that i adore so much i will have them to stay in my collection forever and this is one of them.

    This is a very nice, fresh, fruity, special & actually a bit mysterious little one.
    Stays good on skin (And smells great on everybody i smell this on, wich is my whole town)
    A for freshness
    B for uniqueness
    D – for the feeling that you cant wear this if you want to stick out since every girl in town got a hang up on this.

    Very disappointing; on my skin, insignificant lasting power and a bland/flat dry-down. Returned. Test for at least an hour before committing.

    This is crisp and sweet! I Love it! I like it better than the Be Delicious green one. The Raspberry makes all the difference. its not too sweet and its great for all ages. I was wearing it and my male company said “wow you smell delicious” and i smiled and told him thats what its called lol. DKNY makes great fragrances, you really cant go wrong with any of them that i know of.

    This is a crisp clean scent with a touch of sweetness, but not the sugary kind of sweetness.
    At first whiff I notice the green notes, leafy green notes, almost a geranium note, but then after settling for a couple of minutes, you will get the predominately apple notes with a bit of raspberry,a sip of champagne, and a touch of amber.
    This is a fresh scent that lasts several hours once applied. Sillage is quite good as well.

    A very sweet & fruity fragnance. Reminds me of the Nina Ricci Nina. For times when you want to smell like sweet candy, good for being around with kids, eating marshmallows or baking cookies haha 🙂 A casual and fun fragnance for fun times.

    This one’s got a kick to it that was missing in the original Be Delicious. It’s more mature than the original and I find it a bit peppery on me atleast. Somehow, it’s similar to Gucci Parfum II for me – it’s got the same zing! Sweetness of apples, litchis, raspberries and a bit of pepper – it’s a wonderful combination and smells absolutely divine. One of my faves from the DKNY Delicious line – more mature than the original Be delicious and more complex than Dkny Fresh blossom which is far more floral than fruity in my opinion. Definitely need to get a new bottle of this one as I’ve run out! 🙂

    Its very charming n delicious at top notes, wine mix with the mellow red apple n strawberry, u might just wanna take a bite out! I hope it lasts longer but it dried down quickly to the middle notes, a bouquet of Rose n patchouli, Its quite heavy n a bit synthetic, sadly those middle notes stay long 🙁 The base notes are better in powdery n musk, hint of flowers, slightly warm. At all, this red apple is nice! But after my bottle run out, I wont repurchase it. I prefer the Green apple to this one.

    It’s quite a simple fragrance. It smells completely of apple, but it is a very nice apple-y smell. Juicy and sweet. However, it does seem a shame that it’s hard to notice any of the other notes.
