DKNY Perfume For Women - Donna Karan's rise to stardom

Those who love DKNY Perfume already know that legendary American fashion designer Donna Karan is the creator. She has been able to utilise the co-existing characteristics of New York City to define her fashion brand today. Her roots grow strong in the New York area where she still lives today. However, before her career took of she trained at the Parsons School of Design.

During her career she was able to receive additional tutelage from the Anne Klein fashion house, which was extremely popular in the 1970s and 1980s. In less than 10 years Donna was able to become a head designer with Anne Klein and eventually branch out on her own around the mid 1980s. This is how Donna Karan New York was born.

While many fashion designers try to target a specific audience; Donna Karan New York was built so it would appeal to all of New York. It was a way for everyone who currently lives, grew up, or had ancestors in the area to celebrate the New Yorker life.

For example, while New York the epitome of sophisticated, glamorous, wealthy, and chic, there is the side of New York that is the epitome of hip, streetwise, gritty, earthy, and blue collar.

To this end, she split her merchandise under two divisions. There is the Donna Karan New York division that is more upscale. Then, there is the DKNY division that is more economically priced, and that appeals to hip, and young people. She used this strategy when she created her line of perfumes.

For example, there is the DKNY perfume. It features notes that are sophisticated, mature, and very American classic. But where Donna has found wild success, is with her DKNY Be Delicious perfume line.

The whole line is a celebration of New York in the springtime for the everyday person. The design of the perfume bottles are even designed to look like shiny round apples, as New York is known as the "Big Apple".

There is also another version of this DKNY Perfume that provides fresh pink and white apple blossoms with a touch of citrus notes. If you want a sensual version you can go with the heady, musky, and oil version for night time seduction.

The price points are very reasonable, and these perfumes can be found online. The DKNY perfumes also feature a variety of men's colognes for the man in one's life as well.
