Cheerful rose
Delicate Notes is a very cheerful and must for Springtime!
The musk mallow leaves a smooth velvety aura and the pear is sweet and not too much.I can't find the grapefruit but it is a very clean and fresh perfume maybe because of the it.
Rose is wonderful an girlie with the twist of hamanasu-Japanese rose that is so delicate.
Ylang ylang and woodsy notes keeps a deep base for the fragrance.
A Springtime one!

Slumpfig!
This delicate pink dream would be THE perfect one for the Smurfette.
The blonde with a certain knack for being annoying, who is always crying, a bit silly and naive, and has a more than grating voice.
Ah, how I loved Smurfette when I was seven. She had a closet full of dresses that all looked the same, which made the outfit selection all the more difficult, she pranced through life smiling and batting her eyelashes, and all the guys were in love with her. How wonderful. I only realized what a little nuisance she was at the more mature age of eight or nine.

Don't get me wrong - I LIKE "Especially Escada Delicate Notes". It’s thoroughly a pink, floral cloud, which at first is slightly pear-sweet-warm, then develops a bit green and becomes soft and skin-close towards the end. Absolute must-have candidate for spring or summer.
But my mental imagery connects it with a very young and naive thing, I can't help it. And because I am OLD and naive, I’m out of the picture.
Though... We'll talk again in April 2013... Until then, let’s keep it smurfing, folks!

Thanks to Hasi for the sample! :-*P*

If it were spring now...
... I could enjoy this fragrance even more. The appearance often deceives more than one thinks. The bottle looks quite girly and suggests a super sweet content. At least for me. Many thanks to the noble donor of the sample, otherwise I probably would have never tested the perfume. Thank you, Springflower.

Right from the start, a fresh, cheerful pear rolls towards me. One of the crisp and not too sweet kind. Alongside comes a mild citrus note, slightly sour, yet very pleasant. It must be the grapefruit. Fortunately, it does not smell at all like shower gel, shampoo, or dish soap. Very natural, fresh, cheerful, fruity, citrusy, tooth-friendly sweet, and after a short while, also delicately floral. A gentle rose peeks out from the top note without overshadowing the other notes. I found a similar top note in Ange ou demon le secrete, but this one developed much more citrusy and sour. This one is very light, yet not thin, and for my feeling, almost aquatic.

After the hissing and sparkling start, it soon becomes a bit calmer and smoother. A smooth, delicate rose envelops the top note without completely fading it out. The rose is already slightly soapy, yet not a bubble-blower. The scent is now radiant, warm, floral, fruity (the grapefruit still treats us to a few juice splashes here) and clean. There is a certain volume present, but not so strong that it would be too extreme for hot summer days.

This state lasts for a few hours, then the rose slowly sneaks away, leaving behind a delicate, slightly powdery note. The fruits have rolled away, yet have left their traces. I never perceive the woods, which is a pity, it would have been nice. However, the soft, crystal clean, warm musk comforts me. Again, such a scent that adapts well to the rhythm of the day. In the morning, sparkling freshness and in the evening, a warm, almost cuddly breeze.

Unfortunately, the sillage is only average, it could be louder for my taste. Actually, the longevity is quite good, it just bothers me a bit that the intensity generally decreases quickly. Despite everything, I really like the scent. It is not a femme fatale, rather a young, pretty, spontaneous, and vivacious woman who longs for romance. In gray, dreary weather, it conjures a smile on the lips in no time and is a refreshing companion for sunny days. Generally, it is suitable for work, leisure, sports, and I could also well imagine wearing the scent on a date, as it is very lovable and thus spreads good vibes.

Cheers to the playful bottle, which fortunately does not house a bimbo! :-)

Fair Weather Scent
I have often lingered around Deicate Notes - but I never had the initial spark.
But now, in summer, the spark has ignited!

The line from a poem comes to mind: "The sun laughs, the heart laughs - the eyes look skyward."

The scent is delicate like a cloud of feathers - but not too light or thin.
The cloud skillfully carries delicious pear and pastel-colored roses with it - airy, yet well noticeable.
Ambrette seeds add a lovely creaminess, and the woods are soft.

A summer scent with character that can also sweeten many a rainy day.

I will also get a bottle for my mom, as its adaptability makes it an ideal gift fragrance.

A great creation from Escada!

No Strong Difference to Especially Escada
This fragrance is great. I love it and wear it very often in spring and summer. For me, this scent is like a breath on an incredibly large rose meadow. The pear and grapefruit in the top notes make this fragrance slightly fruity and very fresh. The roses are divine, a scent to dream away with.
The fragrance is not too strong but present, a reason to wear it in leisure time as well.
Unfortunately, it is not a scent for autumn and winter - at least for me. I also don't see a big difference to Especially Escada.
I recommend it for women aged 20 and over.
On me, the fragrance lasts about 4-6 hours.

A fresh, subtly citrusy rose scent. Great for summer as it’s not heavy. Suitable for all seasons.

Fruity-good. The roses make Escada's scents feel more mature and credible. They're wearable all year round. I like it.

I reach for this surprisingly often in summer. No scent that evokes emotions. Just smells fresh and nice. Period.

Elegant, unsweet, non-kitschy rose scent. I don't know what the "Delicate Notes" are made of, but they make the fragrance very special.

Delicate rose scent with synthetic fruits + a hint of sweetness. Fresh at first, it becomes soft + creamy. Drifts lightly on pink clouds…

A delicate rose scent. Reminds me a bit of the fragrance of Chanel's "Joues Contraste." Simply melts you away.
