Which Should You Buy?
Magnetism is divisive, a true love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a battle between fruity sweetness and edgy green notes, a proper Y2K throwback that's both nostalgic and, for some, a touch too much. It's a statement, not a safe blind buy, so sniff before you commit.
No.020 leans on Escada Magnetism's juicy red-berry opening and vanilla-patchouli base for a warm, fruity-oriental feel. It's a recognisable, wearable take on the original, though the fruit reads a touch sweeter and simpler than Magnetism's more layered floral heart.

Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its bold and at times sharp green-fruity profile, combined with impressive longevity and sillage for many, makes it a bit much for the office. However, its sexy, playful character makes it ideal for dates and casual outings, offering enough complexity for evening events too.
