I’m totally confused by the DKNY Women Energizing & DKNY Women separate listings ! I have an EDT in a clear bottle (on the the box it says “energizing” & on the bottle it just says DKNY Women. Then I found a good deal on an EDP gift set. The EDP is in a frosted bottle – it also says just DKNY Women on the bottle but the matching body lotion says “energizing”, & so does the gift set box.The SA I bought the gift set from assured me it was the “original” DKNY Woman perfume…..Anyway, I’ve now come to the conclusion that Women & Women Energizing must actually be one & the same perfume…I think? Comparing the EDT & EDP with one on the back of each hand, I think the EDT may just be slightly more fresh/bitter in the top notes.
As for the scent itself, well it’s lovely (on me). I can’t add more than has already been said. Fresh but not sour/screechy citrus (I get mostly orange). It’s slightly sweet but manages to avoid the “fruit in syrup” effect . The tomato leaf & vodka provides a nice counter balance & adds a little bitterness & “bite”. It’s like a vodka & orange on ice. As the top notes fade it smells just fresh & clean. I don’t smell any leather, as it progresses it softens a lot & unfolds to more floral/green/woody. THEN I sprayed this on my son, on him it’s horrible. It smells like pungent sharp industrial strength cleaner, just as the negative reviews here describe it. It’s like a completely different perfume on him. So I believe in the the “skin chemistry” theory with this one, for sure!
This perfume probably wouldn’t appeal to those who like their fruits super sweet & sugary or with a gourmand twist (I don’t) – so for me a perfect fresh summer fragrance for work.

I bought this as it was on offer at Superdrug and I liked DKNY Summer so I felt it was worth a go. The first hit was vodka on ice with a twist of lemon! As it dried down the woody scents kicked in, to give some much needed warmth to the fragrance. Very little of anything floral and I can’t really find any depth to it. However this is an energising scent and veers very close to a clinically clean smell but I quite like that freshness. It’s staying power isn’t the greatest but I did get little wafts of vodka during the day, which was quite unusual. Saying that I will wear it, on days when I need to be kick-ass and no nonsense! You won’t seduce anyone with this one but if you’re off for a morning run – spray liberally!

This ‘perfume’ is vile. Toilet cleaner smells better than this. I don’t know who in their right mind could wear this and actually not retch from the stench. Stay away from this 100%!

Sour Lemon… this is good only as a dish soap.

I don’t like it. I cannot smell any citruses, just pine, wich is very harsh on my skin… I feel like I used my boyfriend’s perfume. This one is definitely not for me, although might fit others well.
БРЮНЕТКА – :
this perfume smell exactly as Dior Portofino!
Periafrip – :
where is the tomato leaf that gave it the zing!?
The 1999 version had tomato leaf and I thought I was buying the same (I mean the bottles are nearly identical. Disappointment somewhat. There is no way of knowing this when you buy this stuff on-line…..

Way, way too sharp. Smells like someone spilt a really concentrated citrus drink all down me. Then a sharp blast of Violet Leaf which I normally enjoy but it’s way too loud and nothing else is given the chance to emerge. I’m not too sure what Ms Karan was trying to achieve with this one.
LESOVI – :
the first sniff of the fragrance smells like the glass of fanta 🙂 , than it changes in few minutes to the smell of a clean laundry an it lasts. nothing more, nothing less. if you like fresh clean fragrances, you can give it a try. But for me its too common, like i would dress myself in the morning to freshly washed dress. like it would not be complete. this perfume is missing something that would make it memorable, what would blowed me away
anun2015 – :
No, no, no…to citrate. Sharp…takes to long for dry down but when it does its fresh and nice love the orchid, and woody notes. Last a few hours…bout four. Not for me, prefer creamier frags, such as pure and cashmere mist, tm alien. As well as orientals such as Ck Euphoria blossom. And Oooh Narcissi R

I got this by swap and I think it’s gone bad. Or if it isn’t it just won’t suit me. It smells like very sharp citrus and some heavy wood, maybe pine. I get no fresh or floral notes, all I get is sting of sharp notes. Like an old man with too much aftershave.
The bottle has to be gone bad because others seem to find pretty notes from this.

This is one of my all time favourites although it is one you love or hate – my other half really isn’t keen on it but I LOVE it. So refreshing on a hot summers day, invigorating in the mornings & lasts ages. I also like the original but no where near as much as this. I guess the vodka notes & citrus suit me & I like the slightly woody dry down.

In which GROUP do you classify this perfume? It does not mention it, at all….
sergeybublik – :
Polo Sport,by Ralph Lauren, it reminds me of that scent. It starts fresh though loud, but it only lasts for a short while. It’s a good after shower scent and I suppose you can layer it with other fragrances that share some of its notes, Pleasures by Estée Lauder comes to mind and the aforementioned Polo Sport. It’s ok if you like clean, vibrant smells, I find it a little screeching, though.

A very fresh citrusscent for spring/summertime. Timeless – both for teenagers and women, I think.
En otroligt fräsch citrusaktig doft för vår/sommar. Tidlös, både tjejen o kvinnan passar i den, tycker jag.

This smells like pine cones in the worst possible way. I got a tester and I was just no, no, no,. The vodka is not working here for me at all. It’s too strong. I think it would work better as a medicine against blocked nose. I should say this could be unisex perfume, but no, if I don’t want to smell it on women then definetly I don’t want to smell it on men. It surely gave me energy too run away from it.

This was a blast-from-the-past buy for me, a hark back to ye olde DKNY. After spending what seemed like ages trying out new fruity florals and vanilla based scents, a spray of this was like a breath of fresh air. Genuinely mood-boosting – must be the iced vodka! But I also think it smells a bit like coriander! Good for layering too.

The member Vie Cafe , was dead on with this smelling like ice, if it could have a smell 🙂
BlackDead – :
a quick update: despite its magnificent smell, it has NO STAYING POWER AT ALL. what a waste of a nice scent and money 🙁

Fresh, light, energising….My new signature fragrance, my new “fragrance” love story
oleg-1 – :
In my opinion, this is a fabulous scent! I typically do not go for these ozonic type clean scents but I’m in love. I can easily see myself wearing this daily. It’s very similar to OUI by Lancome which may be discontinued. It’s a better version as well. If you like that scent or Estee Lauder Pleasures, this it it!
DatWanioffete – :
i’d have to agree, there is something that just doesn’t even set right on paper with this fragrance! It’s pungent, heady and musky. I couldn’t even distinguish what was in there. A touch of creaminess to my nose, but it simply doesn’t even work together. If I want to smell of tomato floral vodaka I’ll eat some nasturtiums, take a shot of vodka and wash it down with a V8 tomato juice chaser.

I will try this as my childhood memories smells r of tomato leaves and poplar trees laying on the cool grass in summer.

notes:
citrus, iced vodka, tomato leaves, water lily, green coral orchids, daffodil, white birch, tulip tree bark
and all you can really get is tomato leaves!
the original dkny women is much better and
worth to track down instead of this
