Escape (1991)
by Calvin Klein

I have been a long-time fan of Calvin klein fragrances, but this one does not appeal to me AT ALL. I think it's supposed to be a light natural and fresh fragrance but to me it smells like bug repellent. The name "Escape" is appropriate. When I smell someone wearing this fragrance, I want to escape. Thank God it's not very popular anymore.

I wonder why this scent's name is "Escape" but by thinking about it my mind escape for a while. Very sweet & lasting.

I am in my early 30's and love this fragrance. It can become a bit heedy, so as other reviewers have pointed out, find out how this wears on you before too much is used! :) It evokes a very classy feeling, an air of sophistication surrounds you when this is worn.

Here are a few fragrance notes from different sites that I located ...

TOP: peach, apricot and rose lily
MIDDLE: carnation, ylang-ylang and cedar
BASE: vanilla, amber and musk

A fruity floral fragrance with notes of chamomile, apple, mandarin, jasmine, rose, plum, peach, musk and sandalwood.

A floral and fruity fragrance, with a hint of marine scent evokes the adventure that is each woman's life.

Escape opens with chamomile, apple, lychee, coriander and hyacinth followed by a heart note of jasmine, peach, lily of the valley, rose, osmanthus, and carnation. The end note is composed of sandalwood, musk and vetiver.

FRAGRANCE NOTES - Chamomile, Apple, Mandarin, Rose, Plum, Peach, Musk, Sandalwood.

'Nice,' in the most boring sense of the word. I don't actively dislike it at all, but there's nothing here that does it for me either... I've heard it called a marine fragrance, which I suppose is accurate. If it were a person it would be a big, dumb oaf. 'Big' due to the strength, 'dumb' due to the complete lack of complexity or development, 'oaf' because you can't really relate to it, nor can you find it in your heart to really dislike it... it is what it is... it just isn't for me. I should mention though that this is my dad's girlfriend's signature fragrance, and she seems quite happy with it (judging by the over-generous application;-)

when you're a 20 year old(years ago) and the delicious older lady you're dating wears this, you're not sure if you've fallen truly, madly for her or for her fragrance...i remeber nuzzling the nape of her neck and teasing her ear just to get a closer experience..its a magical fragrance...not too much is necessary...but it overpowered this young man into total submission..at least while we were together...evocative..that is the best a scent can do..5 stars

Again, one of those fragrances that make you a tad nauseous if overapplied. I use it QUITE sparingly, and like it. Not the most frequently used fragrance in my wardrobe, but not one of the "sleepers", either.
