What does Delicious Night smell like?

Delicious Night takes the signature apple-shaped silhouette of the Be Delicious line and pivots into much darker, more mysterious territory. Rather than the crisp juice of its predecessors, this version opens with a deep blackberry note that feels soaked in a chilled martini accord. A sharp kick of ginger cuts through the sweetness, giving the initial spray a fizzy, energetic edge that mimics the atmosphere of a crowded city lounge. As the fragrance settles, the "Night" moniker becomes clear. The heart is a bouquet of purple-hued florals, including orchid and iris, which add a powdery texture that softens the fruitiness. The base is what truly separates this from the rest of the collection; a heavy infusion of frankincense and myrrh creates a smoky, resinous finish. These incense notes, anchored by amber, turn the scent into a sultry oriental that feels more like a leather jacket than a sundress.

Community Insights

The fragrance is widely mourned as a discontinued gem, with many fans expressing frustration over its unavailability and the lack of comparable modern flankers.
Performance is a standout feature for the brand; while the original Be Delicious is often criticized for being fleeting, the community regards Delicious Night as having significantly better longevity and sillage.
It is almost exclusively categorized as a cold-weather scent, with enthusiasts recommending it for fall and winter nights due to its heavy incense and balsamic undertones.
While the bottle suggests a fruity profile, the consensus is that the dry down is surprisingly smoky and mature, moving away from "shampoo" vibes into a more resinous, resin-forward profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Delicious Night still in production?+

No, this fragrance has been discontinued for several years. It is increasingly difficult to find, and long-time fans often hunt for bottles through vintage resellers or secondary markets.

How does this compare to the original green Be Delicious?+

They are opposites in character. While the original is fresh, aquatic, and centered on green apple, Delicious Night replaces the crisp fruit with dark berries and swaps the clean finish for heavy incense, amber, and spice.

What is the best time of year to wear this?+

Most users find this fragrance performs best in cooler autumn and winter temperatures. Its dense, spicy notes can feel too heavy or cloying in high summer heat.

Is this suitable for the office or daytime wear?+

While it can be worn during the day in winter, the community largely views this as an evening or "night out" fragrance. The martini and frankincense notes give it a sophisticated, moody profile better suited for social settings than a professional business environment.

Does it have a strong floral scent?+

There is a distinct floral heart of orchid, freesia, and iris, but these are secondary to the fruit and resins. The iris contributes more of a powdery texture than a traditional "fresh flower" smell.

Who is the perfumer behind this scent?+

Delicious Night was composed by Jean-Marc Chaillan, the same nose behind many other popular department store classics and contemporary designer releases.
