The story behind the bottle.
Island Kiss by Escada, launched in 2004 and crafted by Philippe Romano, is an embodiment of the tropical sun-drenched islands with its fruity and floral accords. The fragrance opens with a bright burst of mango, passionfruit, and raspberry, evoking a sensory explosion of ripe fruits and warm breezes. As it settles, a heart of magnolia, white flowers, and hibiscus provides a lush and vibrant mid-note that balances the sweetness with a touch of floral freshness. The base notes of musk and sandalwood ground the composition, adding warmth and sensuality.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for maximum effect, as the fruity top notes are bright but fleeting. The floral heart and warm base will linger closer to your skin, making it perfect for daytime wear or a casual evening out.
