Beauty favourite of the month: This is how my summer smells

We have over 50,000 beauty products in our range. And the trend is rising. A little help in the search for the real treasures among them won't hurt.
I prove time and time again that I have no nose for fragrances. What I like makes my fellow human beings turn up their noses and vice versa. What's more, I rarely really love a perfume. If it does, it doesn't come close to the one from my teenage years that completely blew me out of my flip-flops (we didn't just wear them on the beach back then).
"Sunset Heat" by Escada was my first perfume. A dream come true in a bottle. Since then, the brand has released further limited edition summer fragrances year after year, and I can literally smell the unmistakable pattern of their composition: always fruity and sweet, just on the edge of over-sugariness and each time just a watered-down version of my "Sunset Heat". Not perfect, but still good enough.


That's why I treat myself to one of these fragrances every now and then. This year, the latest creation "Miami Blossom" has also been added to my cart. Because while others see the cloudless sky or the awakening green as harbingers of spring, for me it is this summer fragrance that heralds the new season and makes me hardly wait for summer.
"Miami Blossom" contains top notes of watermelon, orange and blueberry, heart notes of pineapple, tiare, jasmine, tuberose and spritz and base notes of sandalwood, musk and ambroxan, according to the press pack. I have no idea what a third of these components are. But you might. In my own words, Escada's new addition smells floral, fruity and fresh. And if I like it, then there's a good chance that you won't like it... 😅

As a massive Disney fan, I see the world through rose-tinted glasses. I worship series from the 90s and consider mermaids a religion. When I’m not dancing in glitter rain, I’m either hanging out at pyjama parties or sitting at my make-up table. P.S. I love you, bacon, garlic and onions.
