The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Fiesta Carioca by Escada was launched in 2017 as a vibrant celebration of the senses. This Floral Fruity fragrance opens with passionfruit and raspberry, creating an immediate burst of fruity sweetness that feels both playful and inviting. The heart notes of violet leaf, passion flower, jasmine, and orange blossom add depth and elegance to this lively composition, while musk, benzoin, and cedar provide a warm and sensual base that lingers softly throughout the day.

How to wear it

Apply Fiesta Carioca in light layers to allow the fruity top notes to mingle with the floral heart before settling into its warm base. The scent is best enjoyed during warmer months when its tropical vibrancy can be fully appreciated.
