Donna Karan's DKNY line has long positioned itself as urban, accessible luxury for New York sensibilities. Energy arrived as part of the brand's fragrance portfolio, designed to capture movement and vitality without pretension.

DKNY Energy opens with anise and cucumber over magnolia and fig leaf, establishing a fresh, slightly green character with subtle spice. The heart leans into fig leaf and broom, creating a herbaceous, almost soapy floral middle that keeps the composition grounded and clean. Sandalwood and white amber in the base provide warmth and subtle sweetness, while musk rounds out the finish. The overall profile sits in the white floral family with woody undertones, balancing freshness with enough depth to avoid feeling like a simple fresh fragrance.

This is a straightforward, wearable scent for someone wanting green florals without complexity. The anise-cucumber opening gives it personality, but the composition doesn't demand attention. It works well for everyday wear, particularly in warmer months when its crisp top notes feel refreshing. Fans of The Mystic, The Cipher, and The Homesteader may appreciate its understated approach.

Top · 0–30 min
Anise
Anise
Sweet, warm, and intensely licorice-like, anise seed has a Mediterranean, medicinal sweetness that is simultaneously familiar and distinctive. In perfumery anise adds a warm, aromatic depth that bridges spice and gourmand families. Used in oriental compositions and masculine fragrances to add a slightly unusual, warming sweetness.
Cucumber
Cucumber
Fig Leaf
Fig Leaf
The green, milky, and slightly sharp scent of freshly torn fig leaves rather than the fruit itself. Fig leaf is one of perfumery's most vivid green notes, with a raw, sap-like quality and a distinctive slightly sour, green-milk character. Used to add an intense, photosynthetic naturalism to green and woody compositions.
Magnolia
Magnolia
Creamy, lush, and faintly lemony, magnolia is a floral note with real presence, richer than peony but more accessible than jasmine. It has a velvety quality and a slight spice that stops it from being simply pretty. Used to add warmth and dimensionality to floral compositions.
Spices

Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Broom
Broom
The small yellow flowers of the broom plant have a distinctive sweet, slightly coconut-like, and intensely honey-floral character. Broom (genista) is one of the traditional raw materials of Grasse perfumery, with a warm, full-bodied sweetness and a slight animalic depth. It adds an old-fashioned, lavish richness to floral compositions.
Fig Leaf
Fig Leaf
The green, milky, and slightly sharp scent of freshly torn fig leaves rather than the fruit itself. Fig leaf is one of perfumery's most vivid green notes, with a raw, sap-like quality and a distinctive slightly sour, green-milk character. Used to add an intense, photosynthetic naturalism to green and woody compositions.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Amber
Amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Sandalwood
Sandalwood
Creamy, smooth, and milky with a soft, skin-like warmth that clings beautifully. True Mysore sandalwood is one of perfumery's most precious ingredients, simultaneously wood and skin, never cold or sharp. It rounds off sharp edges in any composition and makes the wearer smell subtly, irresistibly warmer.
White Amber
White Amber
A lighter, cleaner, and more transparent version of amber that emphasizes warm, powdery, and slightly sweet facets without the heavier, darker qualities of traditional amber. White amber reads as modern and approachable, with a skin-like warmth that feels fresh rather than opulent. Common in contemporary clean and transparent fragrances.
