Escada Rockin Rio

The ultimate vacation cocktail inspired Rock’in Rio. Imagine a vibrant and glamorous bar along a Rio promenade: the city’s beautiful and sunkissed residents admire each other with their flowing hair and colorful flamboyance. The beat of Brazilian samba simmers distantly in the background while the heat of the day dissolves to reveal the true intensity of Rio and the spirit of glamor and passion continuing day after day.A fruity floral scent, Rock'in Rio is a young, overdosed fragrance like a piña colada cocktail in a bottle. The combination of tropical coconut and pineapple adds a sweet yet fresh and fruity character while driving its uniqueness. The top notes tango with tangerine and papaya, giving it a fresh, tropical zing. The sweet heart notes bring the smells of Rio to life with sugar cane and peach. At the base, the sexy harmony of soft, creamy sandalwood and musks deliver the lasting note of soft skin.Notes:Tangerine, Papaya, Pineapple, Piña Colada, Sugarcane, Blush Peach, Driftwood, Sandalwood, Musky Notes. Style:Vibrant. Tropical. Sexy.

Smell is wonderful but scent fades quickly because it is a toilette vs perfume.

Loved the scent-while it lasted
-04.04.13
Quick Take: sweet scented, doesn't last long
I loved this scent in the store, so I snatched up a large bottle. The first time I wore it after purchasing I noticed the scent completed dissipated within two hours! Such a bummer.... next time I would buy a rollerball version so I can reapply it every few hours, because it smells so yummy. The scent gets four stars, but these toilete sprays just do not last...

Smells Like Summer!
-03.13.13
This is my favorite spring/summer fragrance. Everytime I wear it, I get compliments on how good I smell. It's fruity, but not overpowering or girly. It's grown, sexy and very sophisticated. I love the undertones of pineapple and citrus. Feels like I'm transported to an exotic beach sipping piña coladas.

Quick Take: travel-friendly
This is a tropical smelling scent. Yes, it is a nice fruity-floral. But it is youthful. Which was ok for me back when Rockin Rio was Escada's scent of the year in 2004. Nice memories. It will not stay on for longer than an hour. It is just the nature of the the ingredients.

not as good as Taj
-01.11.13
Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly
I really have to say none of the Escada perfumes that I've tried come close to their Taj Sunset perfume. I just adored that one! My husband would maul me when I would wear it. I really regret not stocking up on it when I had the chance. This one is a good value though, and it smells good - just not close to the yumminess that is Taj ^_~

Pretty good, nice sweet scent
-01.06.13
Quick Take: nice scent
This perfume was pretty good, I was happy with it (though I only sampled it) It didn't blow me away, but it wasn't awful.
It had an exotic scent, with a little of hint of fruit.
I would reccomend this, if you enjoy happy scents :)

2004 is when Rockin' Rio hit the scene and I've missed it ever since. This is my all time favorite scent along with Coco Mademoiselle. MUST get while available.

Quick Take: delicious, amazing smell, fun, flirty
This is one of my all time favorite scents from a few years back. I was SO excited when I saw it in the store that I bought it on the spot! I may even go by another bottle before it runs out.

fruity
-11.12.12
While I don't like most fruity scents because they seem artificial, this escada is very luscious and smells just like papaya and pinapple! They can do fruity right!

Summer in a Bottle!
-10.07.12
Quick Take: summery, warm, flirty
This has been my scent since Escada first released it way back in 2004. Due to it being limited edition I was freaking out I'd never find this again but am so ecstatic to see it back on the shelf. The fragrance is exactly as described; tropical and fruity without being too sweet or overpowering with a fresh and flirtatious feel to it. I always get compliments when I wear this.
My only negative comment, as a few other people have reported, is that it does fade a little faster than other scents which is a shame.

PERFECT FOR SUMMER!
-08.07.12
Quick Take: good value, sweet, fun, summer
I didn't realize that i've been searching for this scent for quite some time now. Its perfect :) off the bat it smells like mango and some floral extracts. It's doesn't have a strong musky scent but rather a sweet yet has that pop of "wow" factor. It's definitely wearable in the summertime. Its a fun scent and i can imagine wearing this perfume at the club or even at disneyland! Its REALLY a FUN scent. Wouldn't recommend it for a date night but once you take a whiff of this stuff, you might not care anymore what the occasion is. lol very summer appropriate & you will not be disappointed! the scent lasts all day depending where you spritz it. 5 STARS all the way!
