Donna Karan launches a new collection of limited edition fragrances, DKNY Be Delicious Hearts The World, which consists of four fragrances inspired by and devoted to the following major cities: New York, London, Paris and Rio de Janeiro.


DKNY Be Delicious NYC retains the original composition of DKNY Be Delicious perfume, because it was originally created to encompass the spirit of the metropolis.
Top notes: magnolia, cucumber and grapefruit
Heart: green apple, tuberose, violet, rose and lily of the valley
Base: sandalwood, amber and blonde woods

DKNY Be Delicious London is inspired by the spirit of the city, as well as the English countryside. It illustrates landmarks such as the River Thames, Trafalgar Square and Cotswolds.
Top notes: green apple and hyacinth
Heart: black currant bud, honeysuckle and English roses
Base: vetiver and amber
DKNY Be Delicious Paris evokes the style of the city and its sophisticated, chic residents.
Top notes: Gala apple
Heart: jasmine and violet
Base: patchouli and vanilla
DKNY Be Delicious Rio is a sumptuous tropical scent of the attractive Brazilian city. Fresh and vibrant, it aims to capture the scents of sun-drenched beaches and samba parties.
Top notes: pink lady apple and passion fruit
Heart: orange blossom and gardenia
Base: benzoin, myrrh and sandalwood
The fragrances are available as 50 ml EDP, limited editions.
hmmm I think we need some creativity from DKNY...fast!
Wow, DKNY really seems to be milking the cow here, just watch out you marketing people it won't perish to death in the process... Don't get me wrong as I absolutely adore both Be Delicious and BD Fresh Blossom, them being among my favourite fruity-florals since their launches, I just agree with the rest by deeming this overzealous flanker after another -boom as a bit foolish. Please use your imagination and bring something entirely new onto the table instead of showering the market with endless variations of one single fragrance. Thank you ;-)
This is odd considering Elite Models released scents based on Paris,New York,London and Rio about a month ago....the difference being the EM scents are dirt cheap for one.I have the Paris scent from them and LOVE it.I wonder who copied who?
i have a discription for all four of them top notes pink lady apple and passion fruit.heart orange blossom and gardenia.base benzoin,myrrh and sandlewood
They should put 1 city per continent, example Tokio, Paris, New york and Sidney.
erm, am I the only one missing a description of RIO in the article above???
I like donna karan new york ,
the firt
it's discontinue.
Let me guess, availible in the UK only again right? I haven't even finished getting all the Sweet Delicious yet, think I might pass on these..
DKNY isn't one of my most favourite collection of perfumes,but I wear "Fresh blossom" some days(actually wearing it right now) and I'm curious for these. Maybe I'll get one for myself!
the best
I must be in minority. I like seeing new flankers of "Be delicious" because so far I liked 4 out of 5 "Be delicious" I tried. Sadly I don't get to test them all where I live. I also agree with the comment below me, it must be unpleasant to find your signature scent in a limited edition.
I agree.. too many flankers. I am excited to try london and rio tho! The only thing I get afraid of with flankers is that if i do end up really liking them, they get discontinued so fast that I'll never get another bottle!
Agaaaaaaaain!??
I agree this is getting silly. I mean I haven't even seen the "Sweet Delicious" flankers that were supposed to come out spring this year yet (macaroon, meringue, key lime), and I was actually vaguely interested in trying those. These just look like more of the same (fruit & flowers), might be nice, but nothing original so why do they bother?
this is getting old and why does ny get the ugliest green bottle? if i did purchase it would be the pretty rio bottle but i don't want any of these i don't like small bottles for high prices unless it is a must have but these are not!
I concur with the other comments - To many flankers now - Its madness! I cant keep up !
My local boots seems to always have the latest DNKY flankers in , so i will test them. The last set of flankers "Sweet Delicious" has only just released and now we have a new set already?
Madness i tell thee !!!
I tested them and the "Key Lime " one was delicious indeed :)
Its a shame that Ive never tested the original, which illustrates what a ridiculous situation DNKY is now in with the flankers..too many in too short a time frame.
On paper "Paris" sounds good , it has all my fave notes , so i will look forward to testing that. Ill have to test the "NYC" too , as its just the orginal re-packaged. Its a bit pointless them having a "limited ed" thats really the orginal ?
Again, limited editions flankers ....
Please stop that ridiculous marketing flow : that's just non-sense !!
saying that i wonder how different london and paris are. i see nyc is basically the old green one.do they say limited to dupe people?
getting a bit bored with these now.how about be delicious-be discontinued next!
You know they are making a lot money on a particular fragrance when one flanker comes after another.
or be deliciously delicious :D
How many Be Delicious variations are there? Like Seriously? What's next?: Be Delicious: The Deleted notes or Be Delicious: Again.
