Escada Que Viva Escada is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1997. Que Viva Escada opens with Pineapple and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Red Apple, Floral Notes, and Pear, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Musk. Escada's Que Viva Escada carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This 90s tropical hit from Escada is a divisive one. You'll either love its intensely fruity, boozy charm or find it a bit too much, especially that pineapple. It's a sunshine scent through and through.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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 moderate longevity and sillage, combined with a bright, fruity profile, make it ideal for casual wear and daytime activities, including sport. It's a bit too bold for formal settings and might be distracting in an office, though some find it inoffensive.

About

Que Viva Escada opens with an unapologetically juicy burst of pineapple and passionfruit, instantly transporting you to a tropical paradise. This vibrant, almost boozy, fruit cocktail mellows into a heart of crisp red apple and soft floral nuances, rounded out by a hint of sweet pear. The dry down settles into a comfortable embrace of warm woody notes and a clean, subtle musk, retaining a touch of its initial fruity zest.
