    What do reviewers say about DKNY Golden Delicious Eau So Intense and Forever?

    This is not a polite fragrance. The original Be Delicious played it safe, citrus, apple, a polite wink. The So Intense version means it. Some will call the synthetic quality in the base too much.DKNY Golden Delicious Eau So Intense
    Some florals shout. This one leans in and whispers. The apple note is fresh enough to feel effortless, but the tuberose in the heart adds a richness that keeps it from reading as simple.Forever
