DKNY Be Tempted Eau de Parfum 100ml Spray is a luminous oriental-gourmand fragrance from DKNY's iconic Be range, launched in 2016. The composition opens on a vibrant chord of red berries, licorice, apple, cassia and lemon; settles into a romantic floral heart of rose, violet and orange blossom; and dries down on a sensual base of vanilla, Indonesian patchouli leaf and myrrh — a confident, dressed-up evening fragrance.

The story behind Be Tempted
Be Tempted was conceived as the dressed-up, evening-leaning interpretation of DKNY's "Be" feminine pillar — pulling on red-berry sweetness, licorice depth and a sensual gourmand base. The licorice-and-cassia opening adds an unexpected modern lift; the romantic floral heart provides romance; and the vanilla-patchouli-myrrh base extends the trail into a long, addictive sillage.
Who it's for
Suited to wearers who love rich, gourmand-floral feminines — fans of YSL Black Opium, Lancôme La Vie Est Belle or Mugler Angel will find Be Tempted a familiar match. Best in autumn and winter; ideal for evening, dinner and special-occasion wear.
How to wear it
- Spray onto pulse points — wrists, base of the throat, behind the ears — from around 15cm.
- Two to three sprays for daytime; build up gently for evening wear.
