Escada Especially Escada is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Jean-Michel Duriez. Especially Escada opens with Pear, settles into a heart of Rose, Ylang-Ylang, and Rainwater, and dries down to a base of Musk. Escada's Especially Escada carries a Favourite verdict, a rose-led wear.

This fresh, watery rose is a divisive little thing; some find it a delightful, clean everyday scent, while others are utterly underwhelmed by its fleeting nature and generic vibe. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who love it, its gentle charm is undeniable.

Its fresh, light rose and aquatic profile makes it ideal for casual wear and surprisingly suitable for the office due to its non-offensive nature. However, the often-cited poor longevity and soft sillage make it less impactful for formal events. Many reviews highlight its perfect suitability for day-to-day summer wear.

About

Especially Escada bursts open with a bright, juicy pear note, quickly transitioning to a dewy, translucent rose heart, as if petals are still glistening with fresh rainwater. Hints of creamy, tropical ylang-ylang round out the floral bouquet, preventing the rose from becoming too sharp. The base settles into a soft, clean musk, leaving a delicate, fresh skin scent that lingers, if only briefly.
