Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fiesta Carioca EDP
This Escada is a divisive one - some find it a delightful tropical escape, while others are disappointed by its artificial sweetness and lack of longevity. Expect a fun, fruity explosion that's not for everyone, and it won't linger long.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Rio Festivities For Women EDP
Perfume Parlour's Rio Festivities chases Escada's Fiesta Carioca, the juicy summer-cocktail floral of raspberry and passionfruit. The dupe nails the fruity opening but renders it flatter and sweeter than the airy original, with the same short-lived wear Escada was always known for.

Season and Occasion Fit

Fiesta Carioca

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its sweet, fruity, and tropical nature, combined with generally poor longevity, makes it ideal for casual wear or sport. It's too youthful and sweet for formal settings, and its strong initial projection might be too much for the office.

Rio Festivities For Women

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The juicy fruit and light florals are built for warm weather, peaking in spring and summer and feeling out of place in winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Cheerful and casual by nature, it shines for daytime and dates but lacks the depth for formal or office settings.
