DKNY Sweet Delicious Tart Key Lime

When I first smelt this fragrance I was disappointed, because I really expected something that smelt like key lime pie. This didn't even come close, it's not even close enough to call it the Yoplait yogurt version. However, given a re-evaluation from another perspective I do like it as a lime fragrance. The lime is soft, feminine, and creamy almost like it had a touch of vanilla in it somewhere. The fragrance also has a bubbly effervescence that reminds me of a soda pop. The overall affect to me is somewhat sweet creamy lime soda. It lasted 4 hours on me, this one will need frequent touch ups but it smells SO yummy. Someone on here mentioned to me how hard it is to find soft, feminine, lime fragrances and I agree! This one is an exception, many lime fragrances come off as masculine or harsh. I'm so glad they put basil in here, it's SUCH a nice touch. Infact this reminds me just a teeny weeny bit of Jo Malone lime basil mandarin. Although this one is much sweeter, softer, and the basil is more subtle. Also way more lime than mandarin, but *pssst* I also like this one more ;)

I sampled this and i'm going to have to get it a FB as my new Spring scent. Gorgeous!! The lime is nice and tart just how i like it , and the other notes are blended well. On the whole i find "Citrus Gourmands" can be quite cloying or sickly. This perfume is neither too sweet or tart IMO and it smells refreshingly sweet and zingy. I can see this good choice for gourmand perfume lovers to wear on a hot day. Most of my sweet perfumes are "too much" for hot weather , so i need something sweet but fresh for summer day wear . Ive found it ! A very nice surprise, as Ive not been too impressed with DKNY perfumes in the past. It also lasted quite well on skin for a citrus based perfume. Nice cute handbag friendly bottle too. PS - Boots in UK are doing a free gift with this perfume too , a bag i think ( id rather have more perfume or matching body products than a crappy thin canvas "Designer" bag to be honest!) But a freebie is a freebie :)

This is perfect for summer! It starts off with a blast of tart, fresh lime, and even though that dissipates after about half an hour, you're left with a soft, fresh, neroli with a hint of lime scent. As for the list of notes, the only ones I could really pick out were lime (obviously, lol) and neroli. I didn't get any basil, ginger, or generic "sweet notes." That's perfectly fine with me, as fresh lime and neroli were really all I wanted out of this, but just a heads-up for someone who might be looking for something a little more complex.

I live in the USA, and I just received this perfume from the UK. In my opinion it does smell almost exactly like the name of this perfume. I do smell the sweet notes as well. It does combine together well. The problem is that the lime, and orange over power the rest of the notes. This isn't something I would wear, it's just not me. I like this fragrence, I don't love it.

I just bought this today from Kohl's. I already have the other two in this collection, and now I finally have this one. All three smell equally sweet, but this one has more of a fresh fruitier scent to it. I like it.
