DKNY Be Delicious City Blossom Urban Violet

I soo wish it was unlimited. DKNY is always a good bet between fragrances for me. The pink one from this line doesn't do that much but this purple gem is something I fall in love with. Opens playful and sour. Became bubbly. Is fruity and like a shampoo with a foam. Sweet and very girly, uncomplicated. I I get apples, those sweet, juicy. Violet which smells a someone said,"candied" and soapy freesia with other fruit in the backround. I imagine romantic girl with shiny hair, courageous, more like coquette which can't be stopped from reaching her dreams. Funny, happy, girly, playful and all amazing.

I wear Urban Violet during the cooler months. Then, the fragrance is reminiscent in my opinion of the beautifully scented (sweet, powdery, mildly fruity) mauve-pink flowers of Luculia grandifolia.

I tried this on impulse, without looking at the name. I have to say I find it quite lovely. More freesia than violet, which is fine by me as I love freesia. The violet note is light and watery, abit candied. The apple blossom is very pretty too, I prefer it to the sharp green apple of the original. The fruitiness is just the right amount (not too much), and the scent is crisp, cool, and feminine, perfect for warm days and office wear. Very nice. For those (like me) who prefer their violets mild, fresh and carefree. Sillage is soft-moderate and longevity is quite good for a light scent (7 hours on my skin).

Received this as a gift and really like the scent. Very close to the original be delicious with more of a berry note. This definitely gives me a headache though, which is a shame. When I first got this, I got into this weird habit of not spraying the usual places but spraying the air and walking backwards into the fragrance. Sounds ridiculous, I know lol but I got over it and stopped wearing it altogether, just to avoid the headache. It lasts a few hours on clothes, I’d say good spillage for a few hours only. Beautiful, but less is more and I’d say, like the original, still a very youthful scent.

I just picked this up on offer in Boots. I tested out this and the green version. At first the both smelt very similar to the original Be Delicious but then after a few minutes I started noticing a difference in this one. I can smell the sour red berries and the powdery violet. I'm really enjoying it right now. It's lasted well. Not as well as my Be Delicious used to last on me but that was a EDP not an EDT like this. All in all I'm a fan. I think it would be lovely on a crisp day in autumn with the sun shining!

Tested it today, hoping for fresh, not powdery violet. And this is it! Alluring violet fragrance, not any powder monster. At first it is very green, even if no green notes are listed. But, after a while, it is really charming, spring violet fragrance. It is not sweet like most of my fragrances, but I like it very much anyway. Highly recommended for spring and summer, if you like violet smell.

This is really nice. Very floral (obviously) I do tend to gravitate more towards spicy or vanilla scents so this is something a little different for me. It's a soft sweet powdery floral. And I have to say I'm very impressed with the longevity and the sillage, which due to its $29 price tag, I was not expecting.

Awful. No violet exists in this, smells like the rest of this line of fragrances from DKNY. I tried this in Boots as i saw the word 'Violet' in the name, what i got was anything but. Sickly, watery nothingness. If you are a fan of true violet essential oil, do yourself a favour and avoid this imposter.

The whole DKNY Be Delicious range is really terrible and smells like cheap air freshener. The only 2 I want to try are guava and coconut. However, this one is not bad. After all, it's actually good value for AUD$46. It also added a much needed violet smell to my perfume collection, as I don't have any purple fragrances. And this is an extremely wearable violet, for those who find them too dry, powdery, resembling old nannas or toilet cleaner. So go ahead and buy!!! Red fruits is what I get a whiff of initially, then a very pleasant/boring/generic fruity floral combo of roses/peony type flowers + genetic white flowers + red fruits. After 5 minutes, some woody violets plus wood type patchouli note comes through. Not bad. Kind of watery. I think a guy could get away with layering this as the opening doesn't last long. The wood is like ice cream mixed with cumin and fenugreek. No headache for me, fairly inoffensive but ofc lacking the quality of niche fragrances

This is a lovely perfume! I think it's not as linear as some typical fruity florals although it is pretty basic powder based iris floral fragrance. I got a lot of iris and berries at the first spritz. It's almost too sweet and like a heightened feminine berry flavored candy scent. At the same time it's not too gourmand or youthful. It's meant for a very grown up lady who likes to smell sweet. Powdery violet and rose, sweet apple blossom, citrus, sandalwood. Great for a night out with other girl friends. I think if a male were to smell this on his girlfriend it might induce a headache. It's heavy on the violet and the powder. Wearing this tonight with a cocktail dress in Palm Beach where I'm performing in a gig. Very feminine and delicious. There's also a fair projection and sillage. I've been receiving compliments on it all evening. Very nice.

I just gave it a try at the store today I'm gonna say its one of the BEST reformulations of the DKNY apples For it doesn't have that sharp bitterness of the cucumber The dry down is so clean & crisp ( I like that ) I used to have a freesia scented shampoo that gave that clean fresh scent to my hair I bet that's one of the perfumes that will stay fresh in hot days unlike most female fragrances and not to mention purple is my favorite color :) Well done with that edition DKNY

This is very nice, I like it, it does have violet, a bit candied, warm violet in the background. The scent is overall floral, lots of freesia, the violet always in the background. I don't get the fruity vibe too much, it is pretty, feminine, bright, easy to wear, I dont find it watery, I just find it pretty. And easy to enjoy!! But I will add, expect lots of flowers!!

This begins with the appealing fruity shampoo vibe of Be Delicious, laced with violet, but this ends all too soon- then the orris root takes over, and lingers for hours- and it goes a little stale, metallic and plastic-ky on me, unfortunately- Reminds me of Ellen Tracy Bronze~

It's very similar to other scents from Be Delicious line. Happy, fresh, girly and summery perfume. It has a bit of shampoo undertone. And to be honest violets here smell to more like lilacs.

It is a pleasant discreet floral scent. Unfortunately it does not last at all on me - it is gone before it dries on my skin. 0 points for longevity.

Exactly like violet candies! So delicious. Shame that the longevity is quite poor.
