Yum! This scent is my first Escada experience. It is on the expensive side. Luckily I have a mom who loves me. It smells very good. I would recomment it for anyone who likes fruit scents.

I love the smell of this fragrance, but I only have one complaint - the scent fades within about 5 minutes! You have to keep constantly spraying this on throughout the day. It has no lasting power whatsoever! That really frustrates me, because I really love this fragrance, but I have gone through my bottle so fast because of this.

Usually when I smell a perfume, it smells like all the others, but not this one. It's nice and fruity, but doesn't remind me of cheap body splashes. I just need some money now to buy some, hah.

Love everything about this... funny thing is I can't tell it apart from Ibiza Hippie. ??? But I don't care!

Positives- the bottle is nice. Everything about it-- the shape, the colors (blue glass fading to pink), the pink metal accent and sprayer, the cool blue grooved cap. The lasting power is pretty good for an edt; can still smell it after several hours. Negatives- the fruit punch/pinapple smell is aggressive, and not very unique. Smells like too many other summer splashes etc. you might find at the drug store. It seems like a good fragrance to wear for fun in the sun, but I don't think it's unique enough to warrant the price.

I'm finding I reach for this more and more now that warm weather is here. I wouldn't say it's "young" but it is fresh, fruity and lively. It starts out very sweet and somewhat strong, but the dry down is soft. If I apply heavy in the morning, it will take me throughout the day, otherwise I would have to touch up mid-day. It doesn't have great lasting power. The bottle design is so/so, kind of cutesy, but then so is the fragrance, so it matches. I am sad this is LE, because right now, I'll say I'd repurchase if I don't tire of it. I probably wouldn't wear this in winter, just reminds me of summer somehow. I can't pick out the notes, but it's sweet and fruity.

This is one of my favorites from the Escada collection. A fun, fruity scent always gets the most compliments on it..

I thought this stuff smelled great in the store so I proceeded to purchase. The scent lasts about 45 minutes after application (hence eu de toilette). Can pretty much be replicated with any of the body splashes/sprays from Bath&Body Works. I found this toilette to be a BIG disappoitment.

First of all, I don't like the bottle.I prefer classic or elegant-looking perfume bottles, sometimes a bit of chic won't hurt. But this doesn't fall into any of the categories...It just won't add that thing to your dressing table.The scent is sweet but not very overpowering. It's fruity. I think it's very girlish so not good for formal occasions. But I figure it should be well enough for that date at the beach!

Not a fan of any perfumes smelling of tropical flowers and/or fruit, and Island Kiss is about as fruity as you can get. Think: passionfruit overkill... bleurgh! Smelling the nozzle of the tester bottle was almost enough to make me keel over.

I first smelled this perfume when I was working at Macy*s and some lady wanted to return it. I sniffed it and instantly knew I had to get my hands on some! I love this scent because it's so fresh, flirty and sexy! It smells like mangoes, pineapples, peaches and a hint of floral notes as well! Very tropical and very Island Kiss! I really enjoy how it smells on my skin too. The drydown is very light and subtle and it does seem to last a bit longer than other scents I have tried in the past! I am getting an Ibiza Hippie to add to my new found Escada collection! I also want to try Rockin' Rio now!! This stuff is so addicting!

This is an interesting fragrance to me, but I like it! It definitely makes me see myself smelling wonderful dancing in the sun on some island. For some reason I could see someone thinking this has a juvenile smell because the smell is very fruity like those cheap girly body sprays before we learn what smelling beautiful really means. I say, if it smells cheap, oh well, I'm a broke student and it's perfect for a summer evening!

I can't believe all the rave reviews, I find this stuff sickening. It's so unbelievebly sweet and disgusting, and smells like some kind of cheap fake sweet crap. It can be found at T.J.Maxx for super cheap, wish I hadn't made the mistake of buying it. Ew.

This stuff is great. Unfortunatley it is a limited edition. But don't be sad this year Escada released Rockin Rio which is nearly identical and just as good. I totally recommend this, as it is a perfect summer scent cause it is a citrus-ey scent.

DROOL. I absolutely love this scent! I'm really sorry it was a limited edition fragrance. It smells so yummy and tropical and fun. People say Escada's LE perfumes smell "young," but I want to smell young. :-) The heart-shaped bottle isn't what I'd call subtle, but it's really cute! Love love love!

EDIT: Why, why, WHYYYY can't Escada make this a permanent addition to their range?
