Be Delicious is a juicy green-apple and cucumber accord over a light floral-woody base. It is simple and extremely effective: it smells fresh, awake and slightly juicy, without any sweetness or weight.
The apple-shaped bottle has been on Australian shelves for twenty years and the fragrance is regularly discounted. Ideal for hot, humid days, gym bags and workplaces where anything richer would be intrusive.
Best for: Humid weather, gyms and fresh-scent minimalists.
The opening — what you smell in the first fifteen minutes.
The core character, emerging after roughly half an hour.
The dry-down that lingers on skin and fabric.
Be Delicious suits everyday casual, office & work and gym & sport. Its subtle intensity means you can apply generously; four or five sprays sits comfortably close to the skin.
Expect roughly 5-7 hours on skin with moderate projection. Longevity drops in high heat and humidity, so Queensland and Northern Territory wearers should plan for the lower end of that range. Spraying one of your applications onto clothing rather than skin extends it considerably.
It performs best in spring and summer. It holds up well in genuine heat, which makes it a sensible choice for summer in any Australian capital.
It is marketed for women, but fragrance has no rules — the fresh citrus character means plenty of people outside that marketing category wear it happily.
Approximately $60 - $100 (100ml) at Australian retail. Designer fragrance is discounted almost continuously, so compare pharmacy chains, duty-free and online marketplaces before paying full department-store price.
