Escada Collection Escada for women

if someone is interested in this rare perfume i have a 100 ml bottle new

After the caramel, I feel a sweet and soft tobacco vibe... Which makes me love it even more... So damn good, very special and warm! Impossible to find but it is heavenly addictive. Love.

I had this one long back. Boy, does it bring back memories! It's a very feminine smell, demure yet confident, subtle yet alluring. It stays for long and I must say, isn't easily exploited by weather. My shirts somehow smelled the same days after I'd used it (of course till i washed them).

Very Romantic, delicate, sweet vanilla luxury one of a kind scent from Escada! I will claim this perfume as one of my all time favorites that is very hard to come by if not discontinued. Classy white floral that can be worn by the middle aged woman, upwards teen and somewhere in between. For all brand conscious lovers, this is one of their best. Escada Collection is a memories in motion, head turning, one of a kind never to be duplicated again scent!

The best scent ever made in my opinion. So comforting ans smooth. Wore this on my wedding day. Wish it never got discontinued. There wil never be another like this.

Chemistry~such a fickle lover! Botrytis doesn't smell remotely like Collection on me. Collection is not as honeyed~ It's a juicy seductive smoke dipped in sandalwood and caramel. A laquered richness that starts like the pastries of a sidewalk cafe. I can hear conversations and see coca cola's on tables,smell inviting pipe and cigar tobacco, sense a busy city full of people going about their day all wrapped in a vanilla hug. This perfume carries the scent of memories and close quarters, the enjoyment of others as part of our everyday experiance, the sharing of time with the people living their lives at the same moment as us.......

For me:
Escada Collection = In Control Curious Britney Spears + L de Lolita Lempicka
Explosive mix! ♥ ℒℴѵℯ♥ it!

Well as I mentioned this was my signature for years. My mother bought it for me, so it holds a special place in my heart. The only reason it's no longer my signature is because it's discontinued. I only wear it on rare and special occasions now because I will run out if I wear it daily. I still have my bottle. I bought Ginestet Botrytis because I refuse to pay $300 for a perfume that is so old it could become rancid at any moment, and I am overjoyed to report that Botrytis smells IDENTICAL. Even the projection and lasting time are identical. I'm so grateful to have found another perfume that can "replace" my Escada. So to anyone who wants to know what Escada Collection smells like and can't afford it, get a sample of Botrytis at LuckyScent.com.

I got mine today and I'm still in shock with this perfume. When I sprayed on my skin, I expected a sweet smell of chocolate but it is much more, was the first chord direction of red fruits! I think it's the smell of plum notes wrapped in caramel, the scent is very warm and pleasant. It is a perfect time to stop and happy that the fragrance produced true gems. I feel ashamed to live in an age in which creations are as "Flowerbomb" paths enshrined and I feel deep sorrow for the people who can´t know what is truly a beautiful scent.
Tobacco Vanille´s brother. Love!


PS: Noooo, it isn´t like "Botritys" cause it is cold and "Escada Colletion" is hot, very hot!!

I absolutely love this, it is so beautiful. It is full, expansive, round, deep and rich caressing your sense in every way. It's sheer heaven.
I don't know what happened but my smelling went off and I began to no longer enjoy it, sold it on eBay, boy am I sorry I ever did that. I should have kept it!!! What a fool I am...I did not know it would be so hard to find and that I would long for it once more.

Why do they always discontinue the BEST fragrances? It's a cruel world. But this Escada Collection is absolutely amazing!!! I have a little sample and it is so unique and enticing.

Cherry cola + vanilla pipe tobacco mix into a deep, slightly heady aroma with very good sillage. A few drops lasted for hours and hours. How I would LOVE to have a full bottle of this. It's so right for fall and winter.

it is so expensive...how it is a sweet vintage, I believe that it´s wonderful...

Can any one smell coconut ??????? :)))

This is really the most amazing perfume I've ever tried/had. The last power could be a bit more, I remember having to refresh during the day but it's so, so good. I'm on a quest to find one similar so any suggestions are appreciated! Otherwise I may have to fork out the 250 dollars for a 1.7oz bottle on ebay and I so don't want to do that! I still don't understand how they could discontinue this fragrance.

One of my favorites so far during winter season. Yummy! ;-)

Today i have recieved "Escada collection" 1999 edition bottle which is lilac with some ornament on it and i finally had a chance to compare it with my 2003 edition bottle and they are not completly the same!
While both share that powerfull honey-vanilla note the 1999 edition is more sweet, more honey, more vanilla, and 2003 edition has more prominent tonka bean note and then all that sweet stuff on the background.
But i absolutly adore them both and now search for other editions of "Escada collection" to compare them with each others. Hope they will be also fantastic!
The lasting power is great on my skin, it´s been already over 7 hours since i sprayed it and i still can smell it clearly.
I only wish it would be more affordable to buy. I´m in love!!!! It´s official! :))

Powerful stuff, very rich scent.

Today i recieved a 50ml Parfum de toilette bottle of "Escada collection" in dark blue velvet with a strass ornament like a star. This is the 2003 edition i have.
I am still not sure whether all of them are the same smelling or not, i will be sure when i will try at least another one of "escada collection".
Back to fragrance. This is a pure heaven for those who love vanilla scents. I dont´t see any vanilla listed in here but this is a pure vanilla with honey (at least in my bottle which is as i wrote before dark blue bottle edition). Smells very much like my much beloved and discontinued L´occitane "Honey and lemon" (without shimmer) but with much more vanilla and honey in it.
Simply amazing and very candy-like perfume!

P.S. now i have purchased a lilac bottle of 1999 year edition and i can now compare soon how those two smell like. Are they the same or different indeed? The notes for the 2001 edition listed also here on fragrantica seem to be different or just incomplete..

lilac bottle with flower ornament- 1999 edition
dark blue bottle with flower ornament -2000 edition
pink bottle with flower ornament - 2001 edition
red bottle with flower ornament - 2002 edition
dark blue bottle with strass ornament -2003 edition
dark blue bottle with ornamnet like an 2000 edition but more silver in the "leaves" - 2004 edition
There was also a special edition i guess for 2002 edition not in velvety bottle, but in shiny glossy bottle with the same ornament
sand coloured bottle with 3 blue flowers drawn by hand and blue spots all over the bottle - ???? year edition

i agree with Tovah. Botrytis is literally the exact same scent, maybe slightly prettier? it's a damn shame Escada Collection was discontinued, as it is one of the best honey fragrances around. at least Botrytis will be waiting in the wings, with her white wine undertone and slightly bigger price tag (which is fine for a fragrance of this caliber)when my bottle is gone. both are impeccable, warm floraly honeys, that are head turning and timeless.

One of my favorite perfumes so far for its great smell! :-D

If you've been searching for a similar fragrance, I recommend you try Ginestet Botrytis. It's remarkably similar to the classic "Collection", but it's even better.

This is on the sweet side, with a fruity/floral aspect that is obvious. However, there is also something that has a cigarette-like quality. After a short while, the musky/woody base begins to emerge, and gets stronger over time. It is strong and lasts a long time. If you like this idea, you should also sample Tobaco Latino (if you can find it). To me it is "unisex," but I'll admit I wear it at home only. The cedar/sandalwood is quite good here, and I usually dislike these notes in recent releases.

This is one of my all-time favorite perfumes and was my signature for years. What sets it apart from other orientals is that there is a faint hint of earthy moss in it, which must be attributed to the cedar note found in the base. The other notes I detect are jasmine, plum, sandalwood, and tonka. This is such a rich and special fragrance, there's really nothing that can compare in beauty, and the sillage on me is phenomenal! It's killing me that it's discontinued.

This was my "signature fragrance" so to speak for quite some time. I miss it dearly.

I wish they would bring it back!!! But I've found something very similar that reminds me of Escada Collection, it is Neroli at L'Occtaine.

guest_Looking for love. Ive heard alot of people comparing In Control by Britney Spears to it. Alot of people on the internet say it smells just like it. Id give it a shot. I happen 2 love In Control so u cant go wrong w/ it. It too is discontinued but u could find it online for cheap. Try ebay. Check marshells, tjmaxx, kohls, ross, etc. Good Luck!

This is my favorite perfume ever, and it has been impossible to find for a few years after it was discontinued....Does anyone know of any perfumes with similar notes, or dries down to the same intoxicating aroma? I'm lost without a signature fragrance... I've tried all the obvious ones, and have had no luck. Please help, I'd be forever grateful!

its nothing but vanilla on my skin !! i used to love it but now i'm not into sugary perfumes

At first Collection is a creamy honeyed vanilla cola, almost effervescent. But very soon, it's gorgeously delicious velvety sweet brandied cherries and rich wet tobacco – oooh yes! There’s also a hint of caramel sugariness. Finally it's soft woods and cherry brandy. It doesn't last long, about an hour or two, but for that first hour, the sillage is amazing! For me, the hype and the searching were totally worth it; it’s different, it’s beautiful, it's sexy, it’s just gorgeous!

PS: My only wish is that for an EDP, that it were a little stronger and creamier.

PPS: Compared with Botrytis – There is a similarity but only when Botrytis has dried down. Botrytis is definitely more honeyed and meadish. Drunk almost. Collection is softer with the cherries, brandy and tobacco. I really like Botrytis, but Collection I love more.

Starts as a blast of alcohol and sandal, mellows to Tonka and distinct cola with notes of mandarin, and settles finally for tonka and sandalwood. Nice.

the vanilla is the most noticable smell in it but its sweeety and good one but its more winter

its too sweet for my taste. not bad in its type though. i can imagine 30 year old or older women wearing it
