Escada Nectar de Costa Rica is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2024. Nectar de Costa Rica opens with Pineapple and Mango, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk and Cedar. Escada's Nectar de Costa Rica carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is Escada's classic summer vibe in a bottle - tropical, fruity, and fun. It's a delightful, playful scent for sun-drenched days, though expect a familiar journey rather than a groundbreaking one. Some find it a bit too similar to past releases, but fans of the genre will still love it.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its light, fresh, and fruity nature makes it perfect for casual wear, especially in warm weather or on holiday.

Its bright and energetic profile could also work well for active casual occasions.

About

Nectar de Costa Rica opens with a vibrant burst of juicy mango and sweet pineapple, whisking you straight to a sun-drenched beach. This delicious tropical fruit cocktail is underpinned by the soft, airy elegance of jasmine and orange blossom, which add a hint of sophisticated floral freshness without losing the playful top notes. As it settles, a clean musk and grounding cedar emerge, providing a subtle structure that keeps the sweetness from becoming cloying, leaving a light, summery trail.
