Absolutely Me

I've been searching for a sample of Absolutely Me for quite a long time because I like Desire Me very much and I think Incredible Me is very good when you search for a sweet pink fragrance (the lasting power in Incredible Me could be better though) - and I have it. Why have I been searching for the sample? Because I saw raspberry among ingredients and I like raspberry in fragrances, still can't afford to buy Hot Couture by Givenchy or get another sample of it ;) Escada isn't a brand you'd expect depth and so it is in Absolutely Me, but I am not searching for depth in Escadas, I like their warmth, sweetness and positive attitude. I don't particularly like Escada's summer fragrances considering them boring and thin but all the three: Desire Me, Incredible Me and Absolutely Me are really good... maybe Absolutely... is the least multi-layered. Absolutely Me is very sweet - close to being cloying but it manages not to be - thick and creamy. I can detect similarity to Paco Rabanne's Ultrared, the same berry with a hint of mint and the sweet notes in the heart (Paco's marshmallows and rose macaroons in Escada). There's only a bit of rose in Escada, much raspberry, sweets and vanilla. Actually it's only a bit "more layered" than season fragrances but it's thicker and with better sillage, so I consider it better than them. Fragrance: 3,8/5 - has the smallest amount of depth of all the three though (Desire Me, Incredible... and Absolutely). Desire Me is the best imo. Sillage: 4,20/5 Lasting power: 4,5/5 Raspberry is a bit similar to Hot Couture edt. Edition: I'm pleasantly surprised - I like wearing it when I'm in raspberry mood and it wears great :) I like the fragrance very much :)

I wore this in high school, but I've repurchased it recently because I still have an empty bottle of it at my parents's house and every time I am there, I have to smell it. I think on some point, I've decided that Escada has too girly and sweet perfumes for me, because I am not 15 anymore, I am a woman now, and this means I have to stop wearing this. How wrong was I. Absolutely me is something special, I think also for Escada. When you don't see this silly bottle, you don't smell girly cupcakes and a 15 years old longing for a kiss in the orchard. The only thing I can smell here is joy. Juicy freshness, something spontaneous, ready to go to the end of the world, but not in a fictional way. When I am wearing it, I could really do anything, it totally inspires me. And I love the name, because I have this thing with sweet perfumes that they kind of make me lonely and automatically longing for someone to be around. But this one, not at all. It is Absolutely me, it is Aquarian, independent and totally free, I feel good in my skin while wearing it. Although I wouldn't even call it sweet, maybe spring-ish, or even better: perfect autumn. The summer is gone, it is getting calm and cold, but I am here, totally alive and ready for anything. A great one.

This is a strange scent for me. Don't get me wrong, I really like it. It's sweet and very powdery - and appropriate for most things. The strange thing is that the sillage is enormous to me, and it smells very different from afar than if you sniff your skin directly. From afar it's very shampoo-like or beauty parlour like as others have described it, which is really pleasant and subdued. Up close it's sweeter, but sort of layered. I get many different smells in one perfume and they compliment each other perfectly. I own tonnes of perfumes and to me this one is unique. I have nothing quite like it, so I'm thinking this could end up a new favourite. Out of the different Escada perfumes I own, this is my favourite. The staying power is above moderate, and reapplication is hardly necessary. :)

I agree with many of the reviews for this on one hand, but my experience is a little different. To me this scent is very weird in the best way. I don't think this is a "typical" girly scent at all, although I think it can be interpreted as one. I get an opening of fruity nail polish remover or hairspray that morphs into sweet neon raspberries with a very slight Hawthorne funk that makes it smell very alive. It's not heavy or super strong, more of an airy scent. This one for me is otherworldly and little avant garde. It makes me think of alien fruits and it inspires creative thinking. I could see it going well with a pastel goth or other colorful and artistic style of dress. A different interpretation than most, but that's what I get from this and I think it's amazing! Very special.

My newest "baby" and I do love it. It brings night in NYC in mind... or in Paris.. or Tokyo...Or London. It doesnt even matter. Its starry, sexy and ready for adventure. Enjoyment. Experience that fulfills your emotional side completely... When a perfume gets me to say things like that I know its something special. Oh and the name is very Leo (absolutely Me) and Im a Leo so we suit perfectly. If Rihanna ́s Disturbia was played on piano it would be perfect song for this perfume. LOVE it!

I'm lucky to still have this. I never gave it much attention but lately I've been getting to know it all over again. My bottle is almost 10 years old and I absolutely love how strong and at the same time airy this fragrance is. Very feminine, clean and ethereal. I get the resemblance to Gentle Fluidity Gold, I'd say this is the same DNA but frutier. I'll hold on to this for as long as I can 😅

This‘s probably the most feminine perfume Ive ever smelt it’s so feminine but it’s not girly idk how to describe it it’s such a simple delicate pink floral vanilla that has a tiny bit of sweetness but I love it it just smells like an effortlessly pretty girl she’s not even trying to be noticed but you’ll notice her✨💖

This is a very yummy gourmand vanilla based scent. There are several very sweet ripe fruits that are blended well with the sweetness of caramel, marzapan, and the base of a very rich vanilla. If you want to smell good enough to eat, this is the scent for you! Longevity is good, and projection is very good!

At first pschitt, it smells a little bit synthetic. Then...it's so sweet and lovely : I absolutely love it ! Fruity, sweet as a candy, sparkling and joyful, a little bit powdery : all things I love. It reminds me of Ultrared - Paco Rabanne (strawberry and licorice !), that I love. Perfect lasting power.

I love this perfume! It was a gift from my boyfriend. For me to fully take in this scent I had to erase the fruity floral Escada fragrances that they've released. It's light and sweet. It's hard for me to get bored of. This one is the best out of the 3 fragrances.

Currently the closest to what I'm looking for in a signature smell. There is this enveloping warmth to it from the macaron and the fruitiness of the rasperry. It smells sophisticated yet sweet. It's lovely and a shame it's discontinued!

this perfume was one of my top fav, too bad they dont really sell it nowdays as they used to now its very hard to get, and very expensive if you even manage to find one T_T

I feel like in a beauty parlor, hehehe sweet aroma and soft, I think it's fun

This is my favorite scent, very lovely, amazing!!!!! ABSOLUTELY ME!!!!!

A sweet scent, I like it a lot, I'll buy it next time. Worth it!!

I like it! Sweet and vanilla.. perfect for winter! :)

already bought this,candy bubblegum..yummy..

Escada's absolutely me is completely different with was I expected I imagined it to be a teenagery playful scent,candied sweet raspberry cake,almost gourmand but summery But I find it something similar to guerlain my insolence!sweet?yes,but not that much I expected.macarons?no...just like my insolence which is all about sweet violets to my nose but doesn't have any violet in it's note pyramid,I can detect tones of powdery violets here,sweetened with powdery vanilla with raspberry flavour,there is also a tasty dryness of pink pepper,after a while this powders calm down and we are left with soft vanilla+raspberry+clean,sweet musk..dry down reminds a sweet raspberry cake and has a partial gourmand quality Raspberry powderyness in the opening is a nostalgic scent for me,reminds me my childhood,dolls,scented erasers and I really like it,though I agree it's somehow synthetic(candied raspberry violets seems always synthetic to me) It's wearable all around year and has very good Longevity,something I like to wear when I'm in the mood for it,also dry down is nice and delicious I should confess absolutely me really surprised me,in a good way My insolence is sweeter,more wearable and younger,less powdery version of insolence,I believe escada absolutely me is a sweeter,younger less powdery version of my insolence

I had this perfume when I was teenager and now I buy it again.I love it like past.it's great perfume.some people think it's only good for young girls but I think it's good for all age.at first when you spray it and if you spray a lot it smells like a cheap raspberry spray or a hair spray but then it become nice and I can smell vanilla and almond and a little powdery rose.it's very beautiful and feminine.modern and old at same.mix of delicious cooky and lipstick.I love lipstick smell and escads absolutely me smell like lipstick more than other perfumes that promise this.longevity is very good.I can use it all season and everybody love it and say you smell very feminine. خیلیا میگن که اسکادا ابسلوتلی می برای سن پایینتر مناسبه اما من میگم برای همه سن اوکی.من هم وقتی نوجون بودم داشتم هم الان و خیلی دوست دارمش.اگه زیاد اسپری کنید اولش کمی چیپ بنظر میاد و بوی اسپری تمشک و تافت مو میده اما بعد چند دقیقه عالی میشه.وانیل و بادام و رز بسیار زیبای پودری به مشام میاد.بویی که هم جدید هست هم قدیمی.هم کمی بوی شیرینی و کیک میده هم بوی رژ لب و من عاشق بوی رژ لب هستم برا همین خیلی به اسکادا علاقه مندم و به نظرم بیشتر از هر ادکلن دیگه بوی رژ لب میده.موندگاری خوبی هم داره و هم فصل گرم و هم سرد مناسبه.من هروقت میزنم همه خوششون میاد و میگن بوی زنونه و طنازی داره

What a sweetheart of a fragrance. To me this smells just like those little purple violet flowers. Probably almond and vanilla though. My immediate reaction was how delicate, how tender. This isn't sweet sweet to my nose, more of a general sweet warmth. The accords look right accept I would turn the list upside down. Depending on price quite a good if you want a 'nice, quiet, pretty scent' which isn't a white floral, gormand or fruit. I've just sprayed this on an autumn evening post shower. No comment as to longevity or sillage as yet. EDIT Now I've had this on for an hour maybe, it alike I have in my hands a little cluster of freesia or violets, some delicate fragrant purple bouquet. A quiet scent still but just so .... yes; tender.
