A fun, fruity scent for Summer
I'm not certain as to how this fragrance compares with the original Island Kiss, but this new release is definitely a pleasant one. I'm enjoying this fragrance far better than the re-released version of Sexy Graffiti.

I'm guilty of mocking Escada and their fruitiness sometimes, although I must admit that they compose sweet and fruity scents well. Island Kiss is what I'd call pretty and flirtatious. The perfect Summer scent for a girl that just wants to have fun.

Island Kiss opens with sweet, juicy mango and orange. I like that it smells sugary without becoming too syrupy and thick. It actually has a slightly clean feel to it, like the scent of a good quality shampoo. This fragrance thankfully doesn't turn sour on the skin.

I can see how some could classify this fragrance as an aquatic, as it does evoke a sense of beachy-ness, however I picture a sweet, fruity beverage, like an exotic cocktail when I smell Island Kiss. It's a fruity floral to my nose, from beginning to end.

The composition is a little linear, although it doesn't bother me in the slightest. The less complex scents are during Summer, the nicer they wear during the heat of the day, at least in my opinion. I would quite happily wear Island Kiss, and this is coming from someone that usually detests fruity scents. If that doesn't shout out my praise, then I don't know what will.

The sillage is fairly average, however I found the longevity much more promising. It lasted a lot longer than I thought it would. Unfortunately, like every other Escada release, Island Kiss is a limited edition, so I would snap it up while you still can.

Fruity-fresh.
Since I forgot to spray on a fragrance this morning, I took one from a friend.
Island Kiss starts off very fruity-fresh, almost aquatic. After a few minutes, I smell like artificial fruit. Which one exactly, I don't even know. Mango, orange, peach, or red fruits? No idea!
On my skin, a scent develops that leaves me lying on a white sandy beach somewhere in the Caribbean while I sip on a fruit cocktail. There's also a flower I don't recognize lying around.
There's no trace of woods or musk.

Overall, it's a nice scent for summer, nothing more. In my opinion, the product description on a well-known perfumery's website doesn't fit. "Oriental-floral"?! No way!

In three words: sweet. fruity-fresh. artificial.

Sweet (Island) Fruits
~ Inspiration ~
I like the Escada fragrances, even though they all smell similar. I received a sample of "Island Kiss" from RamonaK.

~ Bottle ~
The shape is always the same for the summer Escadas. It is designed in shades of blue and fits well in the hand. The name "Island Kiss" promises a great beach scent. It could also be the name of a cocktail.

~ Scent ~
It starts, as usual, fruity and sweet with ripe mangoes, oranges, peaches, magnolias, and passion flowers. A slightly aquatic note is present. Red fruits, musk, and various woods form the base.

~ Longevity ~
On my skin, it lasts about 5-6 hours (a bit longer on clothing and hair). 2-3 sprays are sufficient, as it can become too artificial and sticky otherwise.

~ Occasion ~
A cheerful scent for the hot days in spring and summer.

~ Conclusion ~
I can slowly no longer tell the Escadas apart. Many smell fruity-sweet and very similar (e.g., "Pacific Paradise," "Marine Groove," "Sunset Heat"...). If you like this fragrance direction, you will also enjoy "Island Kiss."

Artificial
Today I tested two Escada fragrances for the first time. The packaging totally reminds me of the Mel Merio scents, although it’s probably the other way around and Mel Merio copied Escada. And quite well, because the fragrances are on par, to the detriment of Escada.

I was drawn in by a sweet-fruity breeze, as another woman was testing "Island Kiss." However, when I tried it myself, it was disappointing. From the very beginning, it was artificially floral, artificially fruity, artificially sweet, and strongly lingering with a powdery note.
When I tried to identify the artificial fruits on the subway, I noticed orange, which is indeed accurate.
Otherwise, I found only one thing interesting, and that is when I sniff and then exhale, I perceive a fine balsamic scent.

The Little Flash Vacation
A quick sniff, and before my inner eye, the image of a bright blue pool in front of one of the luxurious hotels in Miami Beach emerges, white cushioned loungers, gently swaying shadow-casting curtains, and well-dressed tanned people. I even think I spot Crockett and Tubbs.
No beach, no sticky prickly sand, but clean, pristine, and styled.

The scent is clear, aquatic, (can you smell blue?) and fruity/floral.
The sweetness that summer fragrances from Escada usually claim for themselves is kept elegantly in check here.
I don't smell any fruit or flower dominating; rather, it is a balanced blend, with very subtle woods and musk joining in.
This fragrance has fully embraced the motto of summer scent 100%.

Fruit basket in the kitchen, sugary sweet and enchanting. Attracts fruit flies. Still beautiful. Absolute summer scent!

Smells like the fruit salad from the IHK cafeteria. I find it neither too artificial nor too sweet, but it's definitely not for mass-market critics.

My favorite Escada summer scent. A fruity, alcohol-free cocktail with a hint of cream and laundry detergent.

Ambroxan + coumarin, sweet-fruity-floral-creamy and also green! A rather uninspired everyday scent. And it lasts and lasts. Quite expensive for that.

Come on, back then it was a hit! The tropical fruit basket was overly sweet and its development was somehow interesting - just 2012.
