Love, love, love this perfume! First of all, the packaging is just the cutest, coolest thing ever. The bottle shape is so unique, can I say I love it one more time? The scent is so fresh and yummy, like a real, juicy apple. It's not too strong if you don't over sprits and the scent lasts a long time. This scent is very lively and fun and doesn't give me a headache, which is always a good thing (I tend to get headachy with many different perfumes). This is the only perfume that I have completely used up, and I will definitely buy again to keep in my collection!

I tried this one immediately after it was released in 2012. It is a lovely scent, fruity, very feminine, fresh and kind of sporty too, without being too indifferent. I have eventually bought it, and it is a great everyday perfume, that doesnt give you headaches and which guareantees many compliments from other people. It seems to be the kind of smell that men adore (I have noticed that-contrary to what many woman believe-men usually prefer fresh scents and not the more "sexy", musky kind of scents). I give this my best recommendations. By the way, I dont think it is a young scent, it is not too sweet, which young smells usually are...

I have used two bottle of this perfume so far!

The scents it very distinctive, a subtle fresh "green apple mixed with newly washed clothes" smell.

Like most DKNY delicious perfumes it is subtle and blends very well with my natural scent. When I wear it people say "wow you smell good" and not "are you wearing perfume" - which is a good sign to me!

I wore it for 1-2 years straight, almost everyday - and I still like it!

But in the end I got a little tired of the smell - which I tend to do after I wear something for very long. However 2 years is long for me in the "scent" department.

So final verdict: Not my all time favorite perfume, but it is up there!

I loveee this scent. Its perfect for my taste. I love how fruity and delicious it smells! I need to purchase this scent one of these days.. I've had my eyes on this fragrance since i was 15/16 years old. I've wanted to order this scent off ebay since they are way cheaper there, but i feel i might be paying for a watered down/knock off. So I guess i'll just save up money to buy this one from a legit store like sephora.

My favorite perfume ever! I was dying to get this product and finally received it for Christmas. It's even better than I thought, and I got so many compliments on it at work. It smells just like apples, sweet, light and airy. This perfume is best being worn in the day time. The packaging is simple, cute, and unique. It is a little pricey, but it's definitely worth it and I will be repurchasing this over and over again.

This has been my favourite perfume for nearly a decade now:) I love the fresh, feminine smell on me. I always get a lot of compliments when wearing it:) It is good for everyday as it is refreshing and pretty light. I only need one spray for me to last all day! It is amazing in that way :D It smells so strongly that this one spray can be a little too much the first hour or so I wear it. It is not too strong though, as I tend to get headaches from strong smells. I actually have to individual girlfriends who have bought this perfume when they smelled it on me:) I simply LOVE this perfume (but not the products that comes with it, such as the body lotion and deodorants..).

Barely there mall fruity floral with a sour tone. Characterless.

Edited: Sometimes my sense of smell is even poorer than at other times, and I was wrong to class this as characterless. It's not that bad. Sort of tart mall fruity floral that's semi-decent.

I got a sample spray of Be Delicious Intense, so I didn't buy a full bottle. I dislike the resulting scent on me - it smells creamy & fresh, but more like white Spring flowers (similar to Alfred Sung or Avon Haiku), not at all like the light, fresh, juicy green apple I expected to smell, as the shape & color of the packaging indicate. I don't get any apple from this. Since I already have & wear the other scents I mentioned, I wouldn't buy this.

This is such a refreshing, fruity scent, yet it is *slightly* strong for me and doesn't last as long as I anticipated. I love the packaging and it will last me a long time as I don't go through perfumes quickly at all, but it will remain on rotation with other scents as I find it a bit strong but not long lasting. I generally love DKNY's fresh scents (big fan of DKNY Pure) and this is very nice.

My HG scent! I have been using this for years now and I still haven't tired of it. It is a sweet, crisp, apple scent that is perfect for all year round!

I love this scent. It's sweet, young and refreshing! It may not appeal to everyone because it's a "cute" scent and there's nothing signature about it.

the green apple scent smells amazing! i have it in a perfume and a rollerball. the rollerball has a pink end too (not sure what this fragrance is named) but it smells equally amazing. really recommend this fragrance unless you hate apples...
its very fresh and sweet and universal, i smell this off of a lot of people, works for everyone in my opinion.

Received this as a gift. Packaging is cute, but it takes about 10 pumps to get anything out, as the pump has a tendency to get stuck. That being said, this smells like a crisp green apple. On my first try, I didn't care for it. But the more it drys down, the sweet and better it smells. Would certainly repurchase this.

I got this at Ross for $30.00. It is good and very apple"y" as others have mentioned. This perfume is quite strong so one spray and your good to go all day.

I got this in the 1oz size from ulta for like 20 bucks! I like it. it is very Apple-y lol... so if intense fruity is not your thing, this will not be. I did not know when purchasing, that it was on gwp, so i got this huge, amazing dkny tote bag, its like a silver patent leather bag, very high quality, and very unexpected!! DKNY always makes such high quality fragrances, and products! I love to wear this in summer time, esp when camping, or beaching it for the day, as it is so citrus-y. its def an acquired taste to wear, but a great scent to add to a summertime collection

I have to admit I really do like wearing this in spring, the crisp apple notes with the citres and the hint of floral behind it make this a perfect late spring to early summer fragrance to wear. The down side is if I put this on in the morning (7:30/8:00) it won't make it till I'm home again (4:30/5:00) and I can't take my bottle with me. I haven't had anyone say they can smell it on me when they are a meter or more away, that works well for me and what I have to do.
I wouldn't buy this one again if I ran out right now as I would replace it with the Eau so Intense version of it.

The first time I tested this in the store, I was so in love with the scent. It is sweet with the apple and other fruity notes, but bright with the florals. It seemed really unique and if memory serves, lasted the entire day. I requested and received it for my birthday this year, and while I still love the fragrance I am not that impressed with the staying power this time around. I have the very small bottle, the, 0.24 oz with an (annoying) screw cap that you have to dab the perfume on, so maybe with a spray bottle it would be better. The way mine is, I have to apply quite a bit of it and on both wrists and my neck to make it noticeable. It doesn't seem like it lasts more than few hours. When first applied, you get all of the very fresh, pretty notes but after awhile I feel like it just fades into a slightly sweet tone that isn't really great. Overall, if I could, 5 lippies for the (initial) scent, 2 1/2 to 3 for staying power and the bad packaging on mine with the capped bottle. As it was a gift, I struggle to say if I would buy it for myself/repurchase. For now I will say that I probably will not.

This scent smells nice and delicious. Its not too strong and I have a sweet smell lingering all night. I still love it but I'm bored of the smell. Time for something new.
