I was wearing a watermelon!
Yeah, who doesn't know the famous phrase from Dirty Dancing!? :-)
Escada now brings out some fragrances every year, sometimes one, sometimes two. And I'm one of those who don't always like the scent.
In between, they smell very, very soapy with me, and the beautiful fruity makes the finish. But my skin is just weird.
I wouldn't comment on every fragrance from Escada, but since the fragrance pyramid usually never tells me anything or I smell something, except for the ingredient that cuts me down with half the garden fence, this GENAUSO is: MELONE, MELONE, and again MELONE. From front to back. Synthetic, yes, but so wonderfully fresh, melony with many other "undertones", but the melon remains thick and round and green and pink and can't be displaced from place 1 in my nose either.
Reminds me of the Pa.rty.li.te-candle fragrance watermelon! Also so slightly metallic. :-) I hope I can mention this here, otherwise delete it.
I actually like summer, when it's really hot, a little fresher, more citrusy, not so sweet, but I wear the Escadas all summer long, no matter how hot it is. They fit in somehow. I have no idea how they do it, but for me these are actually summer scents, but they can also be used for other purposes, which means winter, autumn, spring to get a good mood.
But - and all of them have that in common for me: after a bottle of 100ml (or once 50ml, once 30ml for the bag ^^) it's enough and you're looking forward to the next one.
Nothing special, it's true, but every year it's different.
And this time, while my husband couldn't get enough of the "Cherry in the Air" smell, he doesn't really like the melon smell. He doesn't hate him, but instead of saying "oh, you smell good" as usual, he just says "oh, melon again today". ^^
What I also noticed: while my almost retired older colleague never puts on a perfume in summer (Winter Chanel No. 5 and Summer Chanel Allure, nothing else), because of the critters they like so much, I have never noticed that, even at beach parties. No critters, no mosquitoes, nothing. Also no wasps, and that is already unusual with the sweet smells.
So an almost full 30ml (handbag!) and an almost empty 100ml ekes out their existence in possession, waiting for the next warmer temperatures. It does not stick to the skin for too long, even if it is mediocre. But the pleasure is not very short either.
And what I only notice in the Escadas through the bank: the base (or head or heart, whatever) note, so what you still sniff on the skin after a few hours, is soooooooooooooooooooooo beautiful, felt always the same, but in different nuances, very superficial to perceive in Cherry in the Air. That's what I love. Would be a pure signature fragrance candidate. :-) But of course I have no idea what that is.
The bottle... mediocre, but with recognition value. :-) And fits into my mini inside bag of my handbag, also very important, in 30ml. ;-)
