Party Love by Escada

Party Love by Escada was exactly what I needed. I started looking for a dupe of Ariana Grande’s Cloud, but while ordering more samples at Fraiché, I stumbled upon this scent. At first, it’s a potent cherry with fresh apple, kind of a mix between Tutsi Pop and Orchard St by DKNY, then it evolves into something sweet, playful, and addictive with that vibe that makes you want to wear it all day. The best part: one solid spritz lasts the whole day, which is exactly what I wanted. That said, if you overdo it, it can get cloying, but overall it’s a delicious, cheerful, and perfect fragrance for anyone seeking something sweet and fruity without being too sugary from the start.

It’s my first perfume with a cherry note, which makes me extra excited. It’s fairly linear, but it doesn’t get old on me. It simply smells like an ultra-creamy cherry cupcake; it’s a treat. It smells sweet and fruity on me (typical of Escada perfumes), and it doesn’t come off as childish—it’s a cherry scent for everyone. As it dries down, you can notice the cherry’s tartness mixed with that whipped cream and cupcake creaminess. I loved it! The longevity is moderate and the sillage isn’t amazing, so it’s best enjoyed up close.

Total gourmand lover! When I went to try it, the packaging really caught my attention. So rich and delicious! I had to have it, and finally I do. It’s a totally candy-cherry scent, like candies and lollipops. I love that it’s noticeable from the second spray; its previous flankers were just imagination. Run and get it; it’s a limited edition and very different from any other gourmand. At least for me, it’s the first one that smells so real like gummies. It fades a bit over time, but you can still smell it with every move.

Smells like those fruity stationery air fresheners, kind of like a rubber eraser. It has a synthetic cherry bubblegum note that will absolutely delight lovers of candy colognes like Amor Amor or Fantasy. To me, it tastes like fruit syrup right after biting into a melon (in this case, cherry 🍒) gum—a perfume that represents (again) the love for txutxerías shops.

What a disappointment. It smells like synthetic or ‘plastic’ blackberries, like old vaseline that’s gone off. I don’t recommend buying it; it’s not worth it. The longevity and sillage are very weak; it doesn’t smell like a real perfume.

I absolutely love this fragrance. It doesn’t smell like cherries; it’s more like blackberries or grapes. Sweet and rich, like pancakes. I wore it today and, despite the heat, I didn’t feel overwhelmed at all.

Even though the note is cherry, it literally smells like Bubbaloo grape bubblegum to me. I liked it at first, but then I got tired of it because it’s extremely synthetic. I wouldn’t buy it again.

Synthetic? Yes. Cherries? Yes. Do I love it? Absolutely. It’s exactly like the photo: a cupcake with cherry jam and whipped cream frosting on a vanilla cake. Gourmand lover ^_^

It’s very similar to ‘Boum Vanille Sa Pomme d’Amour’ by Jeanne Arthes, but swapping the apple for a cherry. It’s just as synthetic and costs triple the price.

It’s gorgeous. If you’re into gourmand scents, this is a beautiful cherry cupcake. I’m so happy to have it; I’m sure it will fly off the shelves ^_^
