Escada: Island Kiss (5ml decant)

$45.00
Description

In 1993, Escada helped pioneer what would become a fragrance tradition: the annual summer limited edition. Island Kiss arrived in 2004 as the twelfth fragrance in the series, crafted by renowned perfumer Philippe Romano and inspired by the sandy beaches, salty air, and lush fruits of the Greek Islands and the Caribbean.

 

These decants are from batch code #E1603, with a 2004 bottle year (the fragrance's original release year). The liquid is remarkably clear and beautifully preserved. More than two decades later, it arguably smells even better than the day it was bottled. Each decant comes with an original Escada beaded bracelet and a 1ml sample vial of Escada's Rockin' Rio (2005), the next release in Escada's limited edition series.

 

Perfumer(s): Philippe Romano

 

Notes: mango, passionfruit, raspberry, orange, magnolia, white peach, red berries, hibiscus, rosehip, musk, sandalwood, white woods

Longevity and layering

Did you know that fragrance longevity can be greatly increased by beginning your routine with clean, moisturized skin? We recommend starting with a shower gel or soap that is either neutrally scented or in the same scent family as your perfume. Then, add a moisturizer and/or body oil and allow it to soak in. Finally, add your fragrance on top. This added moisture barrier will hold the scent molecules for more time, allowing the fragrance to last longer. Think of it as a primer for perfume!
You can also layer scented products (including lotion, soap, body oil, perfume oil, and other alcohol-based perfumes) to add depth, intensity, or a variety of other facets to your final fragrance. We suggest beginning with similar scents (such as two different citrus or vanilla fragrances) and testing those layering combinations, then branching out to more experimental pairings. Feeling stuck? Shared notes, even in very different fragrances, can help bring the final scent together. The sky's the limit - have fun!
