This has been one of my greatest perfume disappointments. I bought this perfume blindly due to the good reviews and my love for gourmands. What I found was something extremely subtle that stays close to the skin and has not won me over. Its floral-gourmand blend does not work well with me. At first it is floral with mandarin, then a chocolaty aroma with dense and dusty coffee. Perhaps the most pleasant part is the dry-down, which smells like custard, but you have to smell the application points to perceive it. The longevity is not an issue, about 5-6 hours (although it does not project on me). I will try it again in other seasons with the hope that it shines more. Perhaps being discontinued, my bottle is no longer in good condition. Scent 4/10, Longevity 6/10, Sillage 5/10, Value for money 5/10, Versatility 6/10, Packaging 8/10. Would I buy it again? No.

Unfortunately, this has been one of my greatest disappointments. I bought it blindly due to the good reviews and my love for gourmand scents, but it is extremely subtle and fades to skin-level immediately. The floral-gourmand blend doesn’t work for me: it starts floral with mandarin, moves to a dense, powdery chocolate with a subtle coffee note. The only pleasant part is the custard drydown, but you have to smell it directly at the application points. The longevity is good, about 5-6 hours, but it projects nothing. Perhaps it would shine more in another season or because the bottle of this discontinued scent isn’t holding up well. Scent 4/10, longevity 6/10, sillage 5/10, value for money 5/10, versatility 6/10, packaging 8/10. Would I buy again? No.

Opens with a floral note where peony and orchid lead alongside mandarin; it’s clean and pleasant at first, but doesn’t quite speak to me. Then the citrus fades and chocolate emerges, not dominant but blended with the flower, powdery with a strange touch—could it be menthol? My nose goes wild. There’s also custard sweetness, but I can’t find any coffee anywhere. All in all, I like it; it’s not my favourite, but its powdery sweetness suits a normal day, like going to university feeling fresh without giving up on sweetness without being cloying. By the way, when I spray it, I feel a wave of alcohol—does anyone else experience this?

One of my favourites! At first it smells citrusy with orchid and peony, then it sweetens and whipped cream appears with a touch of chocolate. It’s soft but very noticeable; it lasts about 6 or 7 hours on skin, fading to skin-level by the seventh hour, but on clothes it lasts many days. It brings me compliments and is super cosy, like a warm, sensual hug. I wear it for intimate dates and the other person wants to eat you up as if you were a bonbon. It’s hard to find because it’s discontinued, but when I see it, I buy without hesitation. If not, I look for an Esenzzia equivalent that does it very well. I love it!

Delicious, very different from Desire Me, which I found overpowering. Here there is an intense cappuccino coffee note, too intense and warm, but incredible on my skin. It starts with lots of peony and mandarin mixed in a rich, fresh and youthful combination; then the citrus fades and the peony remains. After a while, a delicious tiramisu and chocolate scent, nothing heavy or invasive. What a beautiful fragrance, I think I will buy it because there are not many bottles left in circulation; in my country it has been discontinued.

UPDATE: The longevity of Incredible Me is extraordinary, especially considering it’s mid-range to budget. The scent is noticeable the next day, even on the car seat. Today I slept at a friend’s house and she called me at lunch asking about the perfume, as at a family meal with five guests, four noticed the smell on the sofa where I stayed overnight. They were fascinated! Even when I’m not wearing it, at least three or four people ask me about it.

Rich, very different from Desire Me, which I found heavy. This Incredible Me smells incredible: it starts with lots of peony and mandarin in a rich, fresh, youthful combination, then the citrus fades leaving the peony. After a while, it becomes a delicious tiramisu scent, chocolatey but not overpowering or intrusive. What a beautiful fragrance; I think I’ll buy it as there aren’t many bottles left, it’s been discontinued in my country.

It smells good and sweet, but I would not be able to identify which notes they are; none stand out. I do not perceive the floral notes, only a sweet combination. It has good longevity and I use it in autumn, the season in which I believe it performs best. It accompanies you like a warm little jacket for the shoulder season. I like it, but before I would stick with its sister, Desire Me.

This is the third Escada perfume my sister uses (the other two are ‘Escada Island Kiss 2011’, my gift this year, and ‘Especially Escada’), and it is the most ‘gourmand’, no surprise given its composition. There are thousands of similar perfumes, but if you like Escada, are a woman between 20 and 40 years old and are looking for something close to a ‘gourmand’, give this a try.

Smells good and sweet, but I can’t distinguish any particular notes; it’s all a uniform blend. I don’t sense the flowers, just that general sweetness. The longevity is good and I wear it in autumn, where it seems to shine more; it gives me that feeling of a warm mid-season jacket. I like it, although before I would have stuck with its sister, Desire Me.

For me, this scent does not deceive: it is sweet. The first impression is fruity-floral, then you sense a floral aroma but the sweetness always predominates. It is soft, slightly gourmand with vanilla at the base. It is an option because it has good longevity, although it depends on everyone’s pH.

I own all three ‘Me’ scents from the collection, and this is my favourite: sweet yet perfect for summer evenings. It opens with mandarin, orchid, a hint of tiramisu, chocolate and roasted coffee which is very noticeable on my skin. How delicious!
GiulianaD
It’s nothing sweet… the opening is unpleasant and gives me nausea. The drydown is nice, but I don’t know if it’s worth enduring the nausea to enjoy it afterwards.

I love it because my favourite perfumes smell of vanilla and sweets without seeming cheap. It lasts a long time on the skin and makes people notice you.

It is delicious! Sweet and floral without being overwhelming. It is indulgent, but not cloying… Moreover, it is a magnet for compliments.

Delicious! Sweet and floral without being overwhelming. It’s indulgent, yet not cloying. Plus, it’s a compliments magnet.

Smells very much like tiramisu with floral undertones. A sweet yet soft scent.
