US. The Aramis and Designer Fragrances division of the Estée Lauder Companies has unveiled a second bite of fragrant temptation, with a new masterbrand from designer Donna Karan, called DKNY Red Delicious.
The two scents are described as more sultry, daring and tantalising than the original Be Delicious duo, capturing – in fragrance terms – the heart of a passionate relationship.
The feminine version for Red Delicious opens with a Champagne accord, partnered with lychee, raspberry and apple. The heart features vanilla bean, patchouli and amber. Raspberry re-emerges in the dry-down, paired with a Sensual Skin accord.
The male juice is described as dark and spicy, with top notes of Cognac, rum, saffron flower and cardamom. Other key ingredients include coffee absolute, vanilla vodka, citrus notes, Davana flower and Tiger orchid.
Like the originals, both fragrances are presented in apple-inspired flacons, this time coloured a rich, ruby red and topped with a silver cap. Packaging for the men’s fragrance, both inner and outer, is a deeper shade of red.
DKNY Red Delicious Women is available in 30ml, 50ml, and 100ml edps. There is also a 14.8ml Red Delicious Lip Gloss, flavoured with Champagne and lychee.
In addition, there will be a limited-edition DKNY Red Delicious Duo set, available in both travel retail and domestic doors from September. This contains one 30ml of the original Be Delicious edp, plus a 30ml Red Delicious reference.
DKNY Red Delicious Men is available as a 30ml, 50ml and 100ml edt.
