WoodyWhat does DKNY Men (2000) (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close rather than leaving a heavy trail. Most voters pick spring and summer, and name leisure, daily wear and business as the occasions. It reads as masculine and modern.
It opens with tangerine and ginger, bright with a slight bite. The heart of ivy, spices and juniper adds a green, dry edge, and sandalwood and red maple form a woody base. The overall impression is fresh, green and a little fruity.
