What does Escada (2005) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, so it neither overwhelms nor fades away quickly. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily and office wear lead the occasions. Voters mostly call its character feminine, followed by modern.

It reads fresh, citrusy and aquatic, with green and fruity touches alongside. Melon, bergamot and nectarine open it up. In the heart, peony, jasmine and freesia build a floral core, and the base turns powdery and woody, softened by sandalwood, vanilla and musk.
