Escada Sentiment
by Escada
Escada Sentiment is a sweet, floral, and powdery fragrance with prominent fruity notes like black currant and red currant, balanced by magnolia, iris, and soft vanilla. The scent develops into a delicate, romantic composition with a gauzy, dewy quality, evoking memories of youth, pink clouds, and vintage-inspired femininity. On some skin types, it leans toward candied violets and a subtle peaches-to-sandalwood dry down, while others perceive it as a light, sassy, fussy-sweet scent more akin to a Barbie doll than a serious perfume. It holds moderate longevity and moderate sillage, though reports vary. Many describe it as especially suitable for daytime wear in spring and summer, where its fresh, airy nature feels comfortable and approachable. The watercolored bottle with its heart-shaped cap adds to the sentimental and youthful appeal.
