I got given this perfume as a present from my mum. She had bought at duty free whilst on holiday and brought it back for me as a present. Now, I am never one to be ungrateful of a present, especially a free fragrance, as I love my perfumes! However, I found it very dificult to use this one up and I certainly wouldn't buy it again - I just pray my mum doesn't think I liked it and bring me back another one from her next holiday as I didn't have the heart to tell her it wasn't great! I personally found the scent too sweet and too fruity. To me it smelled like a watermelon and if I wanted to walk about all day smelling of watermelon then I may as well just buy one and pour the juice over me - its a lot cheaper anyway! I know this is slightly ridiculous but really the scent was as fruity as you could get.


* Scent Specifics *

This perfume was released in 2004 by Escada. It combines exotic fruit notes with florals and is definately a summer fragrance as it is so fruity. I personally did not find this fragrance lasted on my skin all day and usually the scent had worn off by lunch time.


* Packaging *

The perfume comes in a cardboard cuboid shaped box which is mainly white in colour. The box has the brand name 'Escada' on the front, a cartoon like picture of a woman in a bikini top and skirt, and a lipstick kiss shape at the top of the box. Everything on this packaging promotes this perfume as one for young girls wanting to have some fun in the summer. The bottle itslef also promotes this marketing theme as it is shimmery blue in colour at the top and fades into shimmery purple at the bottom of the bottle - representing the colours of sun and sea. Overall, I do like the vibrant colours of the packaging and I like the fact that, although the bottle is coloured, you can still see through it to tell how much perfume you have left.


* Price *

In store expect to pay around £30 for 30ml and around £40 for 50ml. However, this perfume can be found cheaper online so check ebay, amazon and online perfume stores for the best price.
