DKNY Delicious Candy Apples Sweet Caramel

This perfume is better than I thought. Everything about it is perfect beginnings with the bottle. Smell is lovely, and when I thought caramel, I imagine it would smell like every other perfume with Caramel. But...no. It's distinct and unique! It's green apple with caramel. Yet fresh at the same time. I somehow also smell flowers. It's just different than anything I have, and I appreciate that. PS: lasting power is good (8 hours)

From the first sniff of the bottle I thought this was a bit too sweet , wasn't sure at first spray thought it might be a bit sickly, but just wait for the dry down! OMG this is beautiful! On the skin this is soft and sweet, I can detect fresh crisp apple and a mix of light caramel and delicate spring blossoms. My new favorite! Edit:lasts well, projects moderately, absolutely love it!!

Absolutely LOVE this one. Unfortunately I discovered it too late: they stopped making it :( Can anyone give me a tip on a similar fragrance to try out instead? I've been looking for a "replacement" for some time now but most sweet perfumes are too sweet like Prada candy or Aquolina. Thanks.

adorable cold weather version of be delicious, enriched by caramel and, what absolutely seems to me, pepper, even if it's not listed. maybe even better than the original.

First off, I've got to say this wasn't what I was expecting. Sweet caramel? Err..not really. The top notes give me a strong apple with a touch of pear and rose mallow. The combination is fruity, fresh, clean, slightly tart, and slightly sweet. The heart is a grassy shampoo floral, and it's not one to take lightly. To me this is the strongest part of the whole fragrance along with the apple note in the top. The base is a very light vanilla and caramel. A little bit of a let down to me personally. I like this fragrance, it's alright in it's apple shampooish way. Still, I find myself always layering it to make this the gourmand I really wanted it to be. My fave one to layer this with is chocolovers by aquolina to make it smell like those flippin sweet, chocolate-caramel covered apples from the rocky mountain candy company. I also think a simple caramel or even a marshmallow or vanilla is good at sweetening this up. Just a thought. Whether you like it plain or layered sweet caramel has it's options :).

I'm so confused why this isn't talked about more! If you like green apple even a little and love a gourmand, I feel like there's no way you wouldn't love this. It smells like the original if you baked it in a pie and drizzled it with caramel! Yet somehow it's all fresh enough to wear for any occasion. Someone else said there's cheaper ways to smell like a green apple, and I agree - you could probably find a similar caramel apple scent at B&BW, but something about this has a classy, elevated element to it that you couldn't find at B&BW.

now that's what you call a DELICIOUS perfume the apple toffee bottle is just SUPER CUTE it gives me sugar craving everytime I look at it there is something about the notes....each one is in its right order & in synchronization with each other unlike other perfumes where u feel like the notes are fighting with each other & sometimes that ends bad SWEET-FLORAL-FRUITY-CARAMEL Cheerful uplifting gives u happy energy & reminds me of a very happy memory nicely done Donna Karan

Me encanta! lo compre a ciegas, solo guiandome un poco por lo que decian aqui, y fue un exito. Es un perfume de diario que no molestara a nadie. Es de esos perfumes suaves y calidos, con un toque acido que no deja empalagarte. Es una lastima lo poco que dura en la piel, me dura unas 3 horas, sin embargo lo reaplico porque me encanta. Ojo!!! no lo uses en una fiesta o lugar donde quieras llamar la atencion! demasiado suave e intimo para eso.

Sweet caramel smells strongly of green apple, pear, and floral notes. I find the caramel/vanilla very subtle. This smells like a diet version of a candy apple. I actually like layering this fragrance with other gourmand scents like chocolovers to achieve a candy apple smell. On it's own though it is pretty bland, albeit a nice fruity floral scent with a hint of candy. Lasting power and projection is impressive with this one.

First test on a gormand scent for me. I have believed gormand perfumes would not be something for me and avoid them until now. I liked this candy green apple. Maybe because it was't as sweet and caramel as I expected ... rather refreshing. But yes, it's sweeter than the original green if I compare those two... and I prefere this one. I'll have to try another gormand for experienced this category better.

Opens very fresh, like the original Be Delicious, with the characteristic apple smell. But after a few minutes, it becomes more sweet. The caramel and the vanilla notes are amazing in this one... So yummy! I was expecting something sickening, but this is very good! A perfect balance between sweet and fresh! Can't wait to try the others from the Delicious Candy Apples collection!

Smells like a delicious candy apple. Crisp, fresh, and sweet. Gets me many compliments! The perfume is getting rarer and rarer to find. I strongly recommend it. Get it while you can. Thank goodness for ebay! The bottle is beautiful, a piece of art! The scent lasts quite a while (about 6-7 hrs), not too strong or too faint. Just quite right.

Ok...bought this a few weeks ago at the Navy Exchange in San Diego before it was released to the public. Smells very similar to the original to me. Has the same sharpness and I only smell the sweetness - the caramel and marshmallow - upon dry down. Still, I like it and think it's perfect for spring. Four stars!

This fragante is soft and smells like flowers to me. I usually don ́t like sweet and sugary scents, but this scent is just perfect! Is a little bit sweet and i like it very much because is strong and lasts long time on my skin :)

i don't get "caramel" at all, only a kinda cheap plastic apple smell. plus: it gave me terrible headaches whenever i wore it - had to get rid of it.

Anyone who knows the DKNY people Plz ask them to bring the delicious candy apple range back There is no sign of them in any shops/on line stores

I just smell lots of flowers and green. That's it unfortunately! No caramel, no apple, no vanilla; nothing sweet at all. If you like sweet, gourment or really fruity scents, you should not waste your money on that or you'll be totay disappointed!

This one resembles Be Delicious, but it's Be Delicious' chemical counterpart. Chemical green apple. I'm surprised it's a floral fruity gourmand as well, as I didn't detect any caramel. This collection is utterly disappointing.

This gave off such an odd, off-putting odor. Not a scent, an odor. Reminded me of a smokers home that also has the acrid smell of burning plastic mingling with the burning cigarette smell.

i expect it could be sweet smell.but it smell apples n apples n apples.i smell green apples.no sweet notes.too fresh for me.not my favourite type.

It smells like apple scented soap on me. I'm so disappointed!

There are cheaper ways to smell like green apple and nothing but green apple. Not worth it in any aspect except longevity.

DKNY Carmel Apple is a huge disappointment. I enjoyed the original and Fresh Blossom so well that I ran out and bought all three....at full price (and I rarely do that!). I can agree with the other reviews that advised to save your money! If you're going to buy a green apple, just go with the original. This one is a lighter, more subtle version of the original even though the notes say otherwise. It is slightly more floral than the original and the carmel and vanilla drydown didn't even develop on my skin. I was flabbergasted by that one..the whole idea is that this is supposed to be chock full of sinfully decadent carmel goodness! ARRRGGG! I FEEL CHEATED,HOODWINKED, & LED ASTRAY! Maybe they should have thrown in some almonds or marzipan or fig in this one to make it the true gourmand that I hoped for when I thought about what a carmel apple smells like. I'm not saying it's a bad fragrance, just that it wasn't what was advertised--I'll finish my bottle like a good perfumista, but I will fume everytime I wear it. Poor sillage and lasting power to boot. MEH! Rated 3 out of 10 for being a weak duplicate.

Although I am somewhat sick of the numerous versions of DKNY Be Delicious, DKNY Sweet Caramel is a nice interpretation which is thankfully not as tarty or sickeningly sweet as one would expect. With the scent being driven by a strong presence of caramel and vanilla, this fragrance reminds me of apple crumble with a serve of whipped cream. There is a slight sharpness with the apple note, however in this particular case it works in unison with the pretty sweet notes. This fragrance isn't as fresh as the original, it is much richer in its approach. In terms of lasting power, DKNY Sweet Caramel is the best out of the three, lasting well over 8 hours. The combined longevity and the overall scent, makes this fragrance very appealing, especially as a gift for young girls. I wouldn't call this a complete replicate of the scent of a toffee apple like some are expecting, this is more dessert-like, syrupy almost. It is definitely for those with a sweet-tooth. Those that love the original Be Delicious may or may not love this fragrance, it really depends on their tolerance for sweet scents and gourmands.

I tried both raspberry one and this one on different wrists yesterday. Well, this one was stronger than raspberry as it was lingering while raspberry was hardly noticable. However, I can't say whether it is stronger than the original as I couldnt compare them. Caramel Apple smells a lot like the original, just much sweeter, more candyish. It reminded me of Vera Wang Glam Princess for some reason.It is a candy-gourmand, not a warm caramel-vanilla gourmand you might expect. Actually it didnt even dry drown to the vanilla. The green apple note was there all the time though. I do not like the original either but if I had to choose between the two, I would choose this one. The bottle is very cheapy looking with that plastic top (doesnt look nice in reality)...The original bottle is much nicer. ALSO, the notes which were listed on the stand in the store were different from the ones listed here. I think notes of cake and marshmallow were written on the stand. Well it makes it even more disappointing then ,as this Apple is certainly not creamy!

Recently got obsessed with finding a green bottle perfume that doesn't actually smell too green (favorite color, but not my favorite note). This one sounded like something I would like since I typically enjoy caramel in perfumes. Got lucky and found it on ebay at a decent price. It arrived today, and I have to say that I am very pleased with my blind buy! I don't really get much caramel - it is more like an apple shampoo scent - but there is a light sweetness to it that sets it apart from the original Be Delicious. The original is a bit too fresh for my liking and would irritate my nose, but this one doesn't bother me. I keep catching whiffs of it, so it has pretty good projection! I thought it might be too sweet for warm weather, but it isn't. I'll be reaching for it a lot the next few months.

LOVE this scent..out of all my fragranes i own this is by far one of my top picks for spring and summer for sure..i love how it mixes fresh tart granny smith apples with vanilla and caramel..i really enjoyed the original be delcious but after trying this one i realize what the original was missing it is this vanilla and caramel mix with the fresh green apple..its perfect thats all i can say..and im not much on really sweet perfumes only a short few and to me this one is not overly sweet on me its more sour with a tinge of sweet....PERFECT

I decided to blind buy this based on the reviews. A lot of people mentioned it smells mostly of apples and not much caramel. I have to admit I can see their point :)) it does smell like fresh green apple blossoms. It is such a beautiful floral apple perfume though. I really love it. And I love the bottle. To get that caramel apple effect, I sprayed this on my arm then sprayed Prada Candy over the top. Sniffed my arm and it smells like Toffee Apple. Awesome! Might also try it with Fancy and Hard Candy and see how that goes.

Sorry to say that this one disappointed me. It was a blind purchase online prompted by the good reviews I've read. Unfortunately on me it smells of apples and nothing else. Just apples. Possibly a tiny bit of sweet caramel on my skin. One hour later it's all gone. Maybe there's something wrong with the bottle I received. Maybe it's my higher-than-average skin temperature. Maybe it's this hot early summer we've been getting here in southern china. I don't know. I'll try it in cooler weather and see if it turns out better.

What a bummer. I'm a total gourmand freak, and wish to smell like candy, sweets, caramel, and other gooey goodness. This wasn't it. This is like a fresh shampoo. It smells clean and crisp, and fresh, but where are the sweet gourmand notes? No marshmallow, no caramel... just green and apple. And it stays pretty linear. I don't get a sweet creamy drydown. For caramel apple, go to Mariah's Dreams.

I am getting the apple, pear and vanilla - very green, refreshing and uplifting. I'm not really getting any caramel at all though...!!! Once it dries down I then start to smell the violet which I am completely happy with. It's a shame this are not being made any longer as I find this would be perfect for a summer's day. Nothing too complex just a fruity fresh happy inoffensive scent!

This is the Best DKNY Fragrance EVER!!! I truly love this perfume. It is not a tart or sour apple scent like the Be Delicious, it is so much better. It's a delicate creamy marshmallow, vanilla, violet, jasmine, Braeburn apple, sweet gourmand, its dry down is sensual. Does anyone know of a perfume that is truly comparable???

just received this perfume in the mail today and i really like it. the apple really stands out in the scent, but i do like that. my boyfriend also liked the smell of the scent. it is sweet and a fruity and a bit floral. after the set in, you can smell the apple and caramel the most in my opinion. i would buy this again.

While i see all the comments of people nagging about how light & soft it is compaired to the original be delicious...I SMILIE! Yesss,i think i will like this one way better than the original i found the original to be too strong,so heres hoping i like this one! =]

Very refreshing , and not too many apples in that nicely made scent. I don't get much caramel at first, but the base is definitely not as crisp as the top notes. I find it to be an easy going fun to wear scent., not very complex yet very attractive.

I usually don't wear "sweet" scents because they are too strong for me, however; this one I can wear because it is fresh and sweet but not too sweet. Love this one and I often wear it maybe once a week or so...

i agree it smells pretty much just the the original be delicous green just a little toned down,i would rather wear this one than the original though because i found the original a little too strong & musky

For some reason it's my favourite perfume for now. I ususally hate sweet perfume but surprisingly I love this scent. Sadly it has been discontinued already. I wish I can have another bottle.

I expected sweet caramel apple but I found green apple green apple and ... green apple. Nice scent, don't get me wrong, but where is the caramel? Too fresh, it's missing the point for me.

It is a nice perfume, nothing special but not bad. It somehow smells clean, but in a fruity, shampoo way. You can mainly sense green apples and jasmine later on and that is about it.

Ooooh I can't wait til my local department store carries this new range. I especially want to try this particular one. I lurve vanilla frags and this sounds really yummy :)

this reminds me of apple scented hair products...I was really looking forward to these special editions and they did not live up to my expectations.

I can't wait until Febuary for this! i wish they didnt start advertising so early. This sounds like it will be my favorit of the 3!

I love this. I get a sweet, crisp apple with just the smallest hint of caramel. It's so fresh and gourmand at the same time.

yummy and fresh at the same time.. nothing exquisite, but perfectly wearable :)

does anyone think this one can be wore by men too?
