One of my favorite fragrances; you’ll like it if you enjoy fruity scents like I do. It was a gift from my mom in the 2000s, so I treasure it dearly. The notes that shine on my skin are papaya and pineapple, while the creamy part comes from the coconut and sugarcane. I barely smell the sandalwood, which is a relief since it’s one of my least favorite notes. Highly recommended for a sunny day in any season. Its only downside is that in recent years, coconut has become a huge trend, making that note a bit common. Still, it remains delicious and nowhere too sweet.

One of my favorite fragrances; you’ll love it if you enjoy fruity scents like I do. It was a gift from my mom back in the 2000s, so I cherish it dearly. On my skin, the papaya and pineapple stand out, while the coconut and sugarcane give it a silky touch. I barely detect the sandalwood, which is a relief since it’s one of my least favorite notes. Highly recommended for a sunny day anytime of year. Its only downside is that coconut has become so trendy that it feels a bit common. Still, it remains delicious and nowhere near cloying.

Rock in Rio or a bike ride by the beach? Haha, it’s not bad at all. I just received it and plan to wear it daily. It’s a soft papaya that doesn’t bother me. A bit sweet, but truly sweet is Solar Water—even for me, who likes sweets, it makes me nauseous—but this has Escada’s DNA softened. I insist, it’s perfect for daily, pleasant wear. I’m coming back to edit this because I read it smells like Ralph Lauren Blue, and wow, it does. It’s very similar, rich, but I don’t know where the piña colada I bought it for is 🙁

It’s the happiest fragrance I’ve ever bought. It cost me a fortune and was hard to find. At first, I thought they sold me a perfume full of water, but over time, as air gets into the bottle, all the aromas start to intensify. On top of that, the summer after I got it, Sedal launched a new summer campaign and replicated the fragrance in one of their varieties. I was ready to kill myself… 😛

This is the happiest fragrance I’ve ever bought. It cost a fortune and was hard to find. At first, I thought I’d been sold a watered-down perfume, but as air gets into the bottle and time passes, all the scents really come alive. On top of that, the summer after I got it, Sedal launched a new summer campaign and recreated the scent in one of their varieties. I was dying… 😛

Although it’s already fading due to its age, I still love it. Getting it for my partner was quite a challenge, but I finally have it in my hands. It’s coconut and pineapple, so perfect, but in my opinion, it doesn’t resemble the new Rock in Rio that came out a couple of years ago.

Even though it’s old and evaporating, I absolutely love it! Getting it for my partner was a nightmare, but now I’ve got it. It’s coconut and pineapple, so obviously perfect, but it doesn’t smell like the new Rock in Rio that came out a couple of years ago.

Years ago, I had an exact imitation that lasted for hours. I remember it smelled great, but I got tired of it quickly and had to use it up before my mom did. Luckily it was a dupe because otherwise, it would have felt endless. I wouldn’t buy it.

Years ago, I had an exact clone of this perfume that lasted for hours. I remember it smelled great, but I got tired of it quickly, and my mom ended up using it up. Luckily it was a dupe because the original lasted forever. I wouldn’t buy it.

In my opinion, this rich summer perfume features papaya and pineapple as its main and longest-lasting notes, with the pineapple tasting like one sprinkled with sugar. It’s very cheerful and sweet. Excellent longevity!

In my opinion, this rich summer perfume features papaya and pineapple as its main and most lasting notes, with the pineapple tasting like it’s been drizzled with sugar. It’s very cheerful and sweet. Great longevity!

Fruits, fruits, and more fruits—so many that they get boring very quickly. It’s supposed to be cheerful and summery, but usually, when fun feels forced, it has the opposite effect.
Roxvik
I absolutely love this perfume; it brings back wonderful memories and smells incredibly delicious with tropical fruits. Too bad they discontinued it; if I find it, I’ll buy it.
Aranpec
Ugh, what a turnoff. No papaya, no coconut, nothing worth mentioning. Smells like the 2000s Ralph Lauren Blue—the gloomy, suffocating blue version. Horrible.
Aranpec
Ugh, gross. What papaya or coconut? It smells like Ralph Lauren’s blue Ralph from the early 2000s, that sticky, unbearable mess. Horrible.

My husband gifted it to me for my birthday. Honestly, it’s not one of my favorites; I don’t feel it suits me, but it smells very nice.
