Which Should You Buy?
Turquoise Summer is a divisive holiday fling in a bottle. Expect a loud, synthetic fruit punch that some adore as pure fun, while others find it unsophisticated and fleeting. Performance is the biggest sticking point; it's here for a good time, not a long time.
Hot Blue recreates Escada's limited-edition Turquoise Summer - that juicy pineapple-strawberry-rhubarb tropical sweet that vanished from shelves. The dupe captures the fun, fruity-creamy signature closely and, in oil form, actually outlasts the original's modest five-hour wear. A cheerful, affordable summer fruit-bomb and a handy stand-in for a discontinued Escada.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its intensely fruity, sweet profile and poor longevity make it unsuitable for formal or office settings. However, its vibrant, fresh character makes it ideal for casual wear, holidays, and sports, where frequent reapplication isn't an issue.
Seasons
The juicy tropical fruit and fresh florals are tailor-made for warm spring and summer days and would feel out of place in cold weather.

A fun, fruity scent ideal for casual daytime wear and dates rather than formal or office settings.
