Best Fairy Love by Escada Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

Dark and magnetic, Suavis Corium (Latin for “soft leather”) is a scent built on tension — beauty vs danger, control vs chaos. The opening is provocative: vintage medicine…olives…WD-40. The illusion is created by a clash of black pepper and red berries, leavened with juicy pear smoky Siberian birch. As it unfolds, wild honeysuckle and lily of the valley bloom over dry hay and red thyme, evoking sun-scorched fields and untamed energy. The base strikes with elemental force: Guaiacwood from Paraguay smolders alongside moss and Indonesian patchouli. Smoky, earthy, animalic, it moves with silent force.

Noblemen becoming highwaymen, women becoming men, Englishmen becoming Arabs and prostitutes becoming clergy. Here is a gathering of misfits, the rich, famous and infamous all shrouded in drapery of varying deception as one steps into another world for an evening of flirtation, posturing and risqué conduct.

An elixir to give oneself airs of grandeur and mystique. A complex silky composition, comprised of ambrée and chypre fragrant qualities, A Masquerade is an exquisite companion for social occasions and long evenings, befitting those that seek an alluring presence.

Almaz, the Arabic word for diamonds, are renowned not only for their beauty, but also for their timelessness as they withstand millions of years of immense pressure in their formation. This EdP references the indestructible nature of diamonds with a powerful blackcurrant-led bouquet. Juiciness is enhanced with raspberry, while powdery heliotrope and musk add padding to the cushiony feel. The ambered base, redolent with vanilla and brown sugar, offsets blackcurrant’s tartness.
 
The jewelled bottle incorporates a poem composed by Elen Jeres Ayoub, portrayed in Eastern Kufic calligraphy. The words have been meticulously placed so that the vertical lines create eight zones on the bottle, representing the lunar phases in each lunar calendar month to represent the passage of time.

The seasons and their times
And pressures and their effects,
Bear Diamonds as their fruit.
-Elen Jeres Ayoub

SPECIAL EDITION IS NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION

The same perfume is available in the regular/standard packaging: Cockatiel.

Perfumer: Sven Pritzkoleit

Australian spring arrives, bearing dazzling frocks of yellow blossoms to dress the bare golden wattle trees. Clouds of sweet honeyed fragrance, caught upon the breeze, carry an invitation inland, where a flock of cockatiels happily take up the celebration. Emerging from dusty nests, the birds are ready to preen and prance. On a wobbly stage of branches, vivid crests bop to the rhythm of their joyous songs. After a final encore, the flock takes flight. Alighting in a nearby field they share a delightful brunch, buzzing with the thrill of their stunning recital.

Zoologist Cockatiel exudes joy. A sunny burst of yellow acacia offers a friendly welcome. Dots of raspberry and tart rhubarb suggest a hint of mischief, like a pair of rosy cheeks beneath a golden plume. Finally, soft notes of musk and vanilla enfold the vibrant Cockatiel, like downy feathers cushioning the brashness of this cheeky bird.

Zoologist Cockatiel was formerly known as “Powder and Dust”, a perfume created by Sven Pritzkoleit, published under his own brand, SP Parfums. The creative director of the scent was Yana Lysenko. This perfume won the 2019 Arts and Olfaction Awards under the Artisan category. In 2020, Sven closed his perfume business and sold the formula of Powder and Dust to Zoologist to continue its legacy.

Hanamizake refers to drinking Japanese sake underneath the cherry blossom trees while petals slowly flutter into your cup. The aroma of cherry blossoms and ginjo sake dances tipsily into the last musk note, summoning this serene hanami (cherry blossom viewing) experience.

Named after a very old native red grape variety from the French Jura, this sophisticated gourmand iris is built on an exceptionally high concentration of Bavarian iris germanica. This iris glows with woody and fruity-floral notes — and hints of cocoa and coffee. The effect is enhanced with essential oils of cedar wood, green mandarin and cinnamon absolute, resulting in a luxury treat that feels indulgent and  comforting at the same time.

An explosive, colourful, unconventional twist on the juicy, fruity fragrance profile. Juice | Balanced & Expressive centers on succulent, vibrant fruits, paired with Bulgarian rose and fresh Cyclamen to add bloom and breath. Amberwood brings modernity and depth.

This is the Balanced & Expressive version of Juice, with a noticeable projection that’ll make a mark, not a scene. Also try Juice | Personal and Juice | Bold.

A jammier rendition of Juice | Balanced that explores the depths of strawberry, raspberry and rhubarb when simmered down. Steeped in vetiver, patchouli and amberwood, this blend is a deep, dense marmalade. Boozy davana flower and a touch of burnt sugar creates a rich, addictive intensity.

This is the Bold version of Juice, a powerful, room-filling rendition of its Balanced counterpart, infused with deep, dark notes that’ll make your presence known. Also try Juice | Personal and Juice | Balanced & Expressive.

This is a more transparent, floral expression of Juice | Balanced. It's sheer and intimate, like a halo of fruity floral essence rather than an explosive blast. The silken woods and watery jasmine soften the juicy ripeness of the fruits. Musk adds a cozy airiness that's both comforting and sensual." — perfumer Nathalie Benareau

This is the Personal version of Juice, for those who prefer a subtle, intimately-projecting fragrance that invites closeness. Also try Juice | Balanced & Expressive and Juice | Bold.
