Ultimate Spider-Man Air-Val International 2013 Eau de Toilette

Since I was a little kid, I have been a long-time Spider-Man fan. My enthusiasm for perfume has only developed in recent years, which is why I didn't wear anything like this as a child. It's great that I'm finally testing this scent now, even though I'm probably not the target audience.

So, what must a perfume aimed at children primarily be? Cheap, so that it can be bought by mom or dad. Thus, it will naturally be difficult to bring a miracle scent into this extravagantly beautiful bottle.

The fragrance smells fresh-citrusy and becomes rather synthetic in the dry-down. I can particularly pick out the "citrus fruits" and "ylang-ylang" notes.

Unfortunately, the longevity is also rather below average, and one can't really talk about a sillage at all. Of course, this can be hard to evaluate, or one might say that it's better for a children's fragrance if it fades quickly.

All in all, the scent doesn't stand out from the mass of children's fragrances, but it will surely bring a smile to the face of one or another Spider-Man fan. I think I'll wait until Spidey releases a fragrance for adults.
