The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2014 by Escada, Born in Paradise is a Floral Fruity fragrance that transports you to a sun-drenched island. The composition opens with the juicy freshness of watermelon and guava, seamlessly blending into the rich creaminess of coconut milk and pineapple. This tropical bouquet settles into a base of musk, sandalwood, and cedar, creating a warm and inviting trail. It captures the essence of an escape to paradise, where the air is crisp and infused with the sweetness of ripe fruits.
Apply Born in Paradise liberally to catch its full tropical bouquet. The juicy top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so make sure to layer it for sustained enjoyment throughout the day. This fragrance is best suited for sunny afternoons and warm evenings when you want to feel like you're on vacation.
