Ibiza Hippie

I have a bottle of this in my collection now. It was a blind buy, as I was a child when this perfume was originally released. I can't believe the scent held up for over a decade! I've read stories where people bought bottles that smelled purely of alcohol. Don't get me wrong--this hasn't aged like a Chanel or a Guerlain would. My heart sank when I first sprayed, as the top notes have almost vanished completely. After giving it a few minutes to settle, I smelled a tart body spray type scent. This smells like how Capri Sun tastes, which made it nostalgic for me in a way I wasn't expecting. I did have a hankering for something that smells like Capri Sun about a year ago, and this fits the bill. I want to say it smells like Pacific Cooler? It's tart and not very sweet, like an underripe strawberry. I definitely get cranberry. The lychee has quieted to a whisper. I'm going to enjoy wearing this in the heat, and will treasure my bottle while it lasts. Hopefully I finish it before the rest of the scent fades!

When this was new, I was 15 and very fond of Escada summer editions, but I couldn't afford buying a lot of perfume so I never had Ibiza Hippie. I found it on ebay 15 years later for 10 €, so I had to get it. Luckily my bottle still smells good after I sprayed out the remains of old fragrance in the plastic tube and let it air. There is a bit of an alcohol smell in the first minute, but I can live with it, the rest is totally fine. Compared to most other Escada summer fragrances, especially the more modern ones, Ibiza Hippie is not as sweet. It's not a tropical fruit cocktail, but a tart and only slighly sweet red berry scent with a fresh out of the shower vibe. Cranberry is the strongest note to my nose. There is a very, very light little hint of warm spiciness in this, but not a lot. I wouldn't say that this is a must-have or a masterpiece, but it's so wonderfully nostalic to me and very refreshing for summertime. I also love the old heart-shaped flacon.

This has got to be the best Escada LE perfumes. Years ago, I own the 50ml bottle and gotten a 100ml a week after! It has a lovely blackcurrant and litchi opening that settles down to a sweet and addictive cranberry, amber, sandalwood with a musky undertone that makes it smells sexy! I wonder why they re-released Rockin' Rio, Island Kiss and Pacific Paradise but not this! I only own Ibiza Hippie, Island Kiss and decided not to own anymore. Dupe: I did found a dupe for this which is the Morgan Love De Toi It is not an exact dupe but the sandalwood, cherries, musk and some other goodies makes it smells alike. I'm still waiting for Escada to re-released this one! All the girls will go Hippie! ;)

I loved it when I was 14...I wished to get this one and had it only sprayed on the jean tag you got with it but never had the bottle.I had that tag with me all the time until smell dissappeared :) It smelled peachy to me Now being 25 I would love to buy the miniature just to remember since I don't wear so fruity scents anymore. To be hones, there's no other Escada I would like since this one was made. I think they would make a great step if they would release this fragrance again and would have a new generation of young girls who would fall in love with it just like I did.

I just became a fragantica member today and this is my first review. And it is on the first perfume I have worn, it was a gift for my 15th bday and I can remember till this day how much I loved it. Thanks to this perfume my love for perfume was born.(and died years later thnx to 2 pregnancies,but now it is alive again) I am searching the web to see if I can find it and order it.my first perfume love, and let me tell you, escada's summer editions nowadays smell nothing like the older ones. Well atleast to me. Wish I could smell this some time again.

The best of Escada if I remember correctly. It has been a longh time since I last had the opportunity to smell this delightful scent. I has a set of escada including this and this was my favorite. The second best was rocking rio and the rest I don't remember so I guess I didn't like them. If I remember correctly I found this the best because it was more berry than fruity. Either it's the cranberry that I remember or I caught the scents mixed up and it was another scent in the set.

When I smell this I feel like 17 again - my father bought it for me then. He travels a lot and always used to bring me a little gift he found at the duty free :) I know it is not listed in the notes but I always smell lots of strawberries actually. I also think that out of all the limited edtions that followed after Ibiza Hippie - this one's still the best. PS: I really want a bottle of this again. Ah, the memories...

The best one out of the Escada summer Limited Ed line . It has all gone downhill after this one and Pacific Paradise/Island Kiss ( since those two smell the same...but i do like them !) . I wish Escada would get back to form . I really miss Ibiza Hippie!! Oh , it lasted too and didnt dissapear after 5 mins. Didnt smell over synthetic to my nose either. The worse offender in this line for that would be "Sunset Heat".

Why, oh why, won't Escada do rereleases? This one is worthy of it! All innocent, yet sexy, summer-of-love wild strawberry meadow, sweet freesia-hyacinth airiness, with a subtle amber-cinnamon back note. I miss it. I know there are no strawberries in the note pyramid, but that's what it did on my skin. Strawberry fields forever, heaven-in-a-bottle! Escada... bring it back!

My aunt first bought this for me when I was 17/18 yrs old & I have been addicted ever since. I just turned 28 & guess what my aunt got me for my birthday...a brand new bottle of this amazing perfume!! I was super excited about! Love, love, love this fragrance. But since it was discontinued it has been a pain trying to find it without giving an arm and a leg.

My ALL-time favorite scent...I wish they would bring it back, it is so hard to find. I agree too...there is nothing floral about this. Sweet, fruity and tropical. I absolutely LOVE this! I liked VioletLilly's comment on this. Also, I am with Moonlightmile, does anyone know of a scent LIKE this that is available now in 2012?? Thanks!

I love this perfume. It's my first perfume I purchased when it first came out. I love how balanced it is. I wish they would release this one again. I remember wearing this one everyday but now I try to use it on special occasions. If you haven't purchased from this Escada line, this would be a great one to start with.

Fall, Spring and Summer evenings for this one! I don't care for the regular Escada, but I love this fragrance. It's very clean but not overly fruity, powdery or sweet(like La Vie Est Belle and others). I recently wore this during a Fall afternoon outing and received compliments. Enjoy!

Ibiza hippie is uplifting, fruity and sweet. It's discontinued but I've found a very similar one. Trini Girl by Nicki Minaj. The bottle is scary but it has very similar scent! I bought 100ml bottle yesterday. I don't need to worry about running out of my last bottle of Ibiza hippie.

Visited a fragrance oil shop that specialized in remaking trademark fragrances and discovered this one on accident. It's been discontinued. Great female fragrance. Its slightly musky like a light incense. Top 3 of mine. 4.8/5

This was one of my first "real" fragrances. Like many of the others, wish I could smell it again to see what I'd think of it now. I remember it being sweet, fruity, fun, like many of the Escada perfumes are. Love it!

Yes it is indeed strange to stop these limited editions! But I think it is a way to speed up sales. Like when everybody knows they are around only for 1 year, people hurry to buy them!

I used to love this when I was younger. Too bad it's discontinued as I would love to see what I'd think of it now. Wish they'd bring back Ibiza Hippie, it was my favorite from Escada.

This is my 10 top perfumes, and I haven't got a heart to throw away the bottle yet, after all these years, I hope and pray that I one day will be the lucky owner of a new bottle =))

IBIZA HIPPIE is the first real perfume that i've used..i remember my high school era when i smell this..the litchi smell so delicious..and the fruity drydown is unforgettable

This was one the first fragrance from Escada that I purchased. I LOVED it!!! I went thru 2 bottles. Wish that they would bring this fragrance back again.

My favorite scent when I was in high school. now I'm 22 lol but I'd still buy it if it wasn't discontinued.

I love this! I like most of the LE's of Escada and got them all. I'm always looking forward to the new one!

Mix Alien and Angel Nova to create Ibiza. You should have both perfumes in your collection anyway🙂

This is you girl favvv scent. That lychee makes me wanna make out with the bottle. I LOVE IT.

This scent never gets old for me. Its fruity and subtle. My all time favorite!

Escada IBIZA HIPPIE is my first perfume that i love. so sweet and chic!

Perfect for warm summer nights. A great fruity and fun scent.

Like a tropical paradise! Superb!

Stupidly fruity floral, apparently made by totally stoned hippies with bad munchies who really really loved fruity florals and thought more fruit would be even better, man, then they got high on coke and put even more fruit in. It mellows out, which is a mercy. I would call it the apotheosis of fruity florals but I think apotheosis is meant to be good.. I feel I must revise this now. Having tried every other one of these, since, this is the last good Escada in my opinion! The rest since seem to have become even more technicolour vicious psychedelic storm rages of chemical plastic fruit, so Ibiza Hippie now seems properly good in comparison. Perhaps it actually was their apotheosis after all.

I had this in a tiny bottle in 2005 and LOVED it. I finally got a full sealed EDT from ebay, and was so excited to wear it again. Initially I am disappointed... the sweet fruity richness isn't quite there and it's more aquatic than I remember. Maybe that's the lychee? Maybe it's gone off? I'm waiting to see how it wears over the day. At the moment I'm getting a slight headache and reaction to chemicals! So I'm starting to regret my impulsive enthusiasm to splash out the cash....... sigh.... maybe it's better to buy newer perfumes. It reminds me of Blossom by Jimmy Choo, but less strong and sweet.

I think Ibiza Hippie is the most outstanding of all Escada's annual LE releases. I purchased it in October of the year it came out (2003 maybe?), because here in Southern California it smelled like the perfect autumn scent. While Ibiza Hippie is warm and beachy like all the other Escadas, this one has strong hints of cranberry and an accord that reminds me of pomegranate. Ibiza Hippie feels festive to me, perfect for the Autumn holidays, and it works especially beautifully when the Santa Ana winds fill the chill in the air with their dry hot warmth. I wish Ibiza Hippie would be available again!

it's a sweet floral/fruity perfume sometimes litchi can be too sweet and ruin a perfume but not in this perfume it's not too strong but bold enough to be recognised at a distance the peach is present but less noticeable and works well with the other weaker notes the blackcurrant is strong but not overpowering I would say that it's great for daily use and special events due to it's inoffensive nature Through it's difficult to find and quite pricey I highly recommend for any fruity perfume lovers

There's a yoghurt flavor called "fruitbomb" in my country and that would also be an appropriate name for this scent, though I guess it would be a stark contrast to peace-loving Ibiza hippies. This one manages not to be full-on screechy plastic teenybopper fruit, and for some reason it is not cloying. I'm a bit surprised. It reads cool and refreshing to my nose. I can see why people are so upset that it is discontinued.

My first review. I had this back in the early 2000s and loved it. Thought about it throughout the years and I was at Victoria’s Secret one day and smelled the Bombshells In Bloom. Finally found a dupe without even trying. This is definitely a summer scent, day or night.

this was also my first ever Escada purchase and it was so fun to wear. It's a happy and sweet scent, definitely not grown up or serious. It wears its name very well. I would keep a bottle in my closet just to remember it now and again.

Fruity candy. Smells like red liquorice. Not hippieish and borders on being a bit too sweet and synthetic for me, but I like it. If it had some patchouli and smelt like an island fragrance it would fit its name better though.

I like it. Beautiful sweet floral. Unfortunately it makes me sneeze (freesia) so I had to wash it off. It's like Sexy Graffiti with sharp white floral note with hint of cranberry.

the first perfume i've purchased. really really really NICE scent! every notes seems in well balanced. love it :)

Fruity and sexy at the same time!

I bought the mini sample of this on ebay and I honestly wasnt too impressed with this scent. The opening is really sharp on me and when the scent starts to stop smelling as sharp (after the opening), then it begins to fade away so quickly.

Sorry to those who love this one, but to me it's an insult to hippies and to Ibiza!! I found it a horrible mix of indistinct synthetic fruit and sneeze-inducing musk. Really didn't like it at all.

This is a really good vacation fragrance. Do you like to bring perfume with you when you travel? I do. I love this for summer destinations: the titular Ibiza island, the Caribbean, the Bahamas, the Virgin Islands, Bermuda, Aruba, Hawaii. This is as others have pointed out such a tropical island perfume. It's not unisex despite the musk, and it has a big fruity floral body which was tailor made for the hippie beach girl who wears oversized sunglasses, usually has a guy to apply sun tan lotion on her and loves to sprawl herself on a beach towel and bask in the sun or by a pool on a chair. Laid back and lovely. This is fruity at the first spritz. I get all the fruit notes of peach, pear, currant, cranberry, and litchi. It's pretty juicy like a cocktail drink. The cranberry and currant are the big notes. A bit too much fruit but so delicious and summery. The rest of the time I smell the light florals of white freesia flowers. The dry down is slightly musky but mostly amber. It has a polished dry down like it boils down to a very clean and golden creamy amber. This is a gourmand fragrance as well. I would drink this liquid if I could. Sweet

Ibiza Hippie is a sweet fruity floral scent of distinctive grapes, cranberry, litchi, peach, hyacinth flower and amber. I first wore this IN Ibiza Island when I turned 21. This fragrance always takes me back to that time when I was younger and partying my ass off. It smells like a party too, a tropical island party where there are fires at the beach, blankets, and people wearing next to nothing. It's got sweet fruits out of which the cranberry is the dominant note. I think the color of the bottle, a fuchsia red color also matches the smell which is like a cranberry scent. The hyacinth flower is very noticeable and it smells feminine and just the slightest bit formal like even though she's having a good time she is aware that she is NOT a hippie and is only partying with beach bums for a weekend before she has to fly back home and turn back into a serious minded workaholic. Love this fragrance. For a while it was my signature scent and embodied my personality. Now it's only a nostalgia perfume. It smells so good and it's still selling on ebay and other websites. It's good stuff if you like fruity floral scents.

This is a very sexy scent. It does smell like a seaside resort on an island not necessarily Ibiza - it can be any island from Hawaii to Aruba. It's mostly fruity. It has a cassis or cassia grape scent when it opens, then peach and pear. Delicious sweet fruit and that fruity smell doesn't go away as it takes over the first hour. On me this lasted 3-4 hours. It has cranberry as well and in fact it blends well with the litchi scent and the amber which is gooey and sticky-sweet. The hyacinth is the only flower I could smell. It has only 2 floral notes of hyacinth and freesia so right away it's not very flowery. The sandalwood is also very fragrant and smells like wood from a campfire at the beach. Woodsy/ambery and fruity. Love it. It can still be found on ebay from sellers but it's been discontinued. This is a summer perfume and I can't wear to wear it this summer when I'm out at the beach on the yacht or on cruises to the Caribbean. This is unisex too because it's really just a simple fruity tropical beach scent.

I bought this at the local BX while living in Okinawa. This was the perfect 'island' perfume: beautiful, fun, sparkling. The notes I most noticed - and loved - were the blackcurrant, hyacinth, amber, sandalwood, and the musk. It also had a green scent that wasn't too dark, and it went perfectly with a time in my life that was full of bright emerald and turquoise waters, and bright, hot sunlight. It's a fun, light-hearted fragrance. Not very sexual, in my opinion. I found this perfume was not too heavy or cloying, for a semi-tropical island - but it is definitely a perfume that made itself known. It went very well with everything, from flip-flops and cut-offs, to a formal gown at a military ball. I used the entire bottle, plus two bottles of the scented lotion. If I had realized it was limited edition (I somehow missed that part), I would have bought a few more bottles.

I bought this few weeks ago from someone who didn't know what a treasure she was selling. I haven't smelled this over 10 years. I remember when my mother had a sample of it and I instantly fell in love. So sweet but fresh, strawberries, fresh sparkling water, green forest, fresh tropical fruits all at once. Then years and years I searched this and finally found it. Now I like to wear something more sophisticated and more deep grown scents but I still love this. Ibiza Hippie is sexy, flirty, light and beautiful, but not tacky at all. It's cheerful summer nights at the beach, misty night breeze touching your tanned skin. I don't really like any other Escada scents. This one I love, deeply.

I had this perfume "back in the day", loved it! I was into Escada perfumes and would buy every new bottle they put out. I was young and a bit of a free-spirit, would even bring a bottle with me to a rave and freshen up after dancing for hour. 😅 Escada scents were great but then 'something' happened? They became generic, lacking personality. 'Ibiza Hippy' was the last Escada I bought. It was followed by 'Island Kiss' and that was it for me, no more Escada perfumes. 😞 Except the limited edition 'Cherry In The Air' - loved that one!!! 🍒

Just picked up my second bottle of this scent, it's amazing. It smells like summer memories; lychee, freesia, red berries and laughter. Although it's not explicitly mentioned, there's also this floral tea-like undertone that renders this scent so lovely and delicious. It's fruity, juicy, so natural and youthful, slightly fizzy, tart and my favourite Escada. Like playing at the beach with warm golden sun rays, fruity concoctions, summer love and best friends. Nothing else comes close and I absolutely adore this stuff.

I remember purchasing this in late summer 2003. Was my first perfume purchase, that wasn't a drug store buy. I was 33 at the time. It was all I wore, and the compliments were constant. First thing my now hubby said to me when we met, was how great I smelled. Many, many memories attached to this!! So glad I found this sight, and was able to read reviews, and find links online to purchase. Can't wait for my delivery. Some things are definitely worth the money!
