You can say 你 的 美好 未来 = Your bright future. And you can say 你 迷人 的 眼神 = Your charming eyes

Is 你 美好 的 未来 also correct? Is 你 的 迷人 眼神 also correct?

"你美好的未来" and "你的美好未来" are reducted differently from the same sentences "你的美好的未来" (wordy)

你的美好的未来 (wordy)

你美好的未来 -- omitted 的 from 你的 (emphasize 美好的)

你的美好未来 -- omitted 的 from 美好的(emphasize 你的)

~

你的迷人的眼神 (wordy)

你迷人的眼神 -- omitted 的 from 你的 (emphasize 迷人的)

你的迷人眼神 -- omitted 的 from 迷人的 (emphasize 你的)

and When does an adjective require 的 to describe a noun?

  • Without 你的, are 美好未来 and 迷人眼神 alone still a correct usage? or you have to put in the middle if there is no at the beginning?

  • 美好未来 and 迷人眼神 work because 美好 and 迷人 do not require 的 to be an adjective when applied to two characters noun chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/39229/…

Yes, but I think "你 美好 的 未来" and "你 迷人 的 眼神" are focusing on "美好" and "迷人" more, and vaguely, "你 的 美好 未来" and "你 的 迷人 眼神" are focusing on "你的" more.
