Do you know that 4,000 kg of roses are needed to produce just 1 kg of rose oil? Damask Rose from Isparta is one of the few roses that can produce rose oil used for perfumes such as those in the Especially #Escada collection.
ESPECIALLY ESCADA Elixir is built around a rose heart, but is differentiated from other fragrances in the range through its wondrous intensity. Building on the floral freshness of ESPECIALLY ESCADA, this intensity is borne out of the scent’s unique blend of precious ingredients sourced from around the globe.
The creative inspiration for the fragrance is the concept of a beautiful Night Garden at dusk where a rare & exquisite, deep pink-purple rose blooms as the sun sets, emitting a rich scent which is intense & captivating.
It was a perfect evening of food, wine, & fragrance in this month’s Underground Supper Club at the Hashi Japanese Restaurant, jointly organized by DBS Indulge & Asian Food Channel. #Elixir is inspired by the
ESCADA woman who is boldly elegant, radiating confident femininity & joie de vivre, lighting up the room with her smile & energy. The delicate & feminine notes from the Elixir paved way to a romantic nite for me with my hubby at the food tasting event. Love the floral freshness which matched my emerald green top, & I was instantly transported to a dreamy rose garden by Elixir.
