'My favourite DKNY perfume gets me compliments and it's now £5 in deal'
There are few better compliments you can get than being told 'you smell good'. That's what happened to me at dinner on holiday when the waiter came to serve our table and said 'someone smells lovely'. Three days before, I had treated myself to a new DKNY perfume at Heathrow duty free, which was the culprit for the compliment. Not only do I recommend the fresh, floral smell of the Be Delicious Fresh Blossom, but I've found a way to beat the £20 price I paid for it, and chop £15 off. A nifty deal stack drops the long-lasting perfume down to only £5. Listed at the same rate I paid at the airport, Superdrug sells the 30ml for £20. The shopping tip comes in with TopCashback, anyone who buys the eau de parfum through the money-saving site's link will bag money back into their account, which is what drops the price down to a few pounds. Described as 'floreal' the DKNY scent is one of the brand's most iconic smells, less sharp than its original Green Apple one, but still displayed in its distinct apple-like bottle. The design and smell have been around for decades, from the early 2000s, reports the Daily Record. This is the first time I've personally tried the sweeter and more subtle Blossom eau de parfum. I am a repeat buyer of the original DKNY Be Delicious scent, which can be found at The Perfume Shop, from £47. I buy a bottle for myself each time I see it on offer. It just happens this time at Heathrow's sale rack there wasn't the original green apple scent. Instead, the Be Delicious Blossom resembles a pink lady apple, and is considerably more refreshing, in my view. The sole drawback I've discovered during the two weeks I've owned it is the bottle's design. Unlike other fragrances, this particular lid proves much more challenging to remove. With hints of grapefruit and apricot, several spritzes sustained me throughout the entire evening without becoming excessively overwhelming. It's also amongst those fragrances where applying it to clothing means the following day when storing garments or during washing the aroma will persist. I'm not the sole individual to adore this fragrance. Within Superdrug's review section, it states that '95% of commenters would recommend this to a friend. One customer commented: "This is a regular perfume purchase. Sometimes for myself, sometimes as a gift. "Perfect fragrance for spring/summer. Never regret it." Another buyer emphasised the fragrance's staying power, stating: "At the time of purchase, this was such a good price. Bought as a perfume for work - fresh smell and lasts all day. Would buy again." I've discovered the fragrance maintains its presence for extended periods whilst wearing it, with a couple of applications to my wrists and neck sustaining me throughout the day. Nevertheless, not all Superdrug reviewers shared this sentiment. "It fades quickly but, I am happy I tried DKNY. I prefer DKNY Nectar Love", remarked one customer. The fragrance the aforementioned shopper mentioned, DKNY Nectar Love, is available at Amazon for £29.95 for a 100ml. As the title implies, this perfume offers a considerably sweeter alternative and contains notes of honey throughout. How to get the DKNY perfume for £5:

Waiter told us 'someone smells lovely' after I wore DKNY perfume - get it for £5
The second time I wore my new DKNY perfume a random person said 'it smelt lovely' There are few better compliments you can get than being told 'you smell good'.

It just happens this time at Heathrow's sale rack there wasn't the original green apple scent. Instead, the Be Delicious Blossom resembles a pink lady apple, and is a lot fresher, in my opinion.

9 fruity perfumes you won't regret wearing as an adult
2. Tom Ford Lost Cherry Probably one of the most polarising fruity perfumes of the past decade, Tom Ford Lost Cherry doesn't shy away from being provocative. The syrupy black cherry is unmistakable, but it's layered with almond, Turkish rose and smoky woods to add dimension. It toes the line between playful and seductive, and while it's not for minimalists, it's certainly not immature. 3. Vilhelm Parfumerie Mango Skin Not your typical tropical-fruit fragrance, Mango Skin opens with juicy sweetness, then morphs into something darker and almost leathery. The mango is joined by blackcurrant and a whisper of floral and musky notes. It's surprisingly complex for a fruit-forward scent, and the skin-like dry-down gives it a grown-up sensuality. 4. Jo Loves Pomelo Created by Jo Malone herself, Pomelo is bright, clean and energetic without veering into sporty territory. The grapefruit-adjacent pomelo gives the scent a tartness that's tempered by vetiver and rose, making it more refined than most citrus-heavy fruity perfumes. It's perfect for warm days when you want something crisp and uncomplicated. 5. DKNY Be Delicious EDP An apple a day might not change your life, but Be Delicious has earned its place in the fruity perfume canon. The green apple note is front and centre, but it's supported by cucumber, magnolia and woods, giving it a crisp freshness rather than a fruit salad effect. It's not trying to be niche or avant-garde, but it's undeniably wearable and has aged better than most early-2000s icons. 6. Malin+Goetz Strawberry EDP Forget the synthetic strawberry scents of adolescence—this version is moodier and more conceptual. Strawberry opens with a burst of sweetness, but quickly settles into cedar, musk and orris. It walks an interesting line between familiar and offbeat, proving that fruity perfumes can be both playful and artful. 7. Byredo Rouge Chaotique This is a dense, textured take on fruit. Byredo Rouge Chaotique is led by dates, plum and berries, but they're soaked in rum and wrapped in vanilla and praline. The result is boozy, rich and just the right amount of excessive. It's not your usual daytime scent, but it's a statement-maker for nights when you want to smell unforgettable. 8. Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay Cologne One of the brand's more enduring blends, Blackberry & Bay is green, tart and a little earthy. The blackberry note is juicy but restrained, complemented by bay leaves and a whisper of florals. It doesn't overstay its welcome and works brilliantly as a daily scent, especially if you like your fruity perfumes with a herbal twist. 9. D.S. & Durga Debaser Inspired by the Pixies song of the same name, Debaser doesn't follow the traditional fruity route. Fig is the fruit of choice here, and it's rendered in a creamy, almost coconut-like way. Balanced by tonka and iris, the result is warm, musky and just eccentric enough to be memorable. Think late summer skin rather than fig jam. These nine fruity perfumes challenge the idea that fruit equals frivolous. Whether you lean toward crisp citrus, juicy berries or overripe tropicals, there's a grown-up version out there waiting to be discovered.

World's most expensive perfume costs INR 10 crore, you can buy it in this city!
Here's all about the world's most expensive perfume, priced at a staggering $1.3 million. Created by Asghar Adam Ali, it took three years and 494 trials to perfect this essence of this magical city. The perfume comes in a Murano glass bottle adorned with thousands of diamonds, gold, silver, pearls, and topaz. Dubai is back at it again, showing the world how it does luxury like no one else. The city just dropped what's being called the world's most expensive perfume, Shumukh and it's priced at a jaw-dropping $1.3 million (yes, that's around ₹10.8 crore!). Crafted by perfumer Asghar Adam Ali, the founder of Nabeel Perfumes, Shumukh took three years and 494 trials to perfect, all in an effort to bottle up the essence of Dubai itself. But this isn't your usual spritz-and-go kind of scent. Shumukh comes in a massive 3-liter Murano glass bottle, perched inside a 1.97-meter tall display case that's dripping in bling, 3,571 diamonds, 2.5 kilograms of 18-karat gold, 5.9 kilograms of pure silver, plus pearls and Swiss topaz for that extra glam factor. It's basically perfume-meets-royal-artifact. The name 'Shumukh' translates to 'deserving the highest,' which makes total sense once you see the over-the-top design. The bottle features intricate motifs that pay homage to Dubai's culture - think falcons, Arabian horses, roses, pearl diving, and even nods to its futuristic cityscape. The scent itself is a rich, gender-neutral blend of traditional Middle Eastern fragrances like sandalwood, musk, frankincense, agarwood, and amber, mixed with floral touches like Turkish rose and ylang-ylang. It's not just about the scent though, it's also the first perfume in the world to set not one but two Guinness World Records: one for the most diamonds on a perfume bottle and the other for being the tallest remote-controlled perfume spray system. Yes, it's so extra, it even sprays itself. Perfume isn't just about smelling good in the Middle East, it's cultural. From ancient traditions to Islamic teachings that value personal fragrance, scent is deeply woven into everyday life. The Middle East and Africa's fragrance market was worth $6.1 billion back in 2017 and is only climbing. With that kind of demand, it's no wonder the UAE is leading the race in ultra-luxury fragrances. Shumukh has officially outshined previous record-holders like Clive Christian's No.1 Imperial Majesty and DKNY's Million Dollar Bottle, not just in price but in spectacle. Though no buyer has been announced yet, Shumukh is currently on display at Dubai Mall, and the makers say they've already received a few 'serious' inquiries. Whether someone actually buys it or not, one thing's clear, when Dubai decides to make a statement, it doesn't whisper. It perfumes the entire room.
