Scent

Spiderschwein, Spiderschwein

Well... it was clear that I would come to such scents someday. Not because I was running out of scents to test. And also not because I wouldn't dare to go into the ladies' department with women's fragrances.
It's... because I'm a freakin' fucking NERD, okay? I'm one... who likes comics, and Star Wars, and Indy, and more comics, and video games, and superheroes, and and AND AND!!! Oh, and of course cats too :D
You already know all that from me. Okay, okay... and although I often (hopefully) add that I'm also totally sweet and above all normal, nobody believes me and I'm called a freak (and that, although Nerd would actually be the right term, even more correct would just be "fan" :DD).

Then let's move on So it's not surprising that I had to try the fragrance by looking at the bottle with the Spider-Man logo, even if I'm not a big Spider-Man fan and like the movies rather than reading the comics about it. Of course it was clear to me that you really shouldn't expect much here, but nevertheless... Fragrance is fragrance, so it is tested...

But the most important first:
STAY HERE, DAMN IT! I know you "normal" people won't be interested in a scent based on a cartoon character, especially if you see a riiiiy spider on the flacon, but still, bleeeeeeeeibt!!!

So,... if I hadn't been in public, I would have sung Homer Simpson's version of the Spider-Man song, because because of the Simpsons movie from a few years ago I only have to think of Spider-Man as Spiderschwein: ... Spiderschwein, Spiderschwein! Do whatever a Spider-Pig does. Is it off the grid? It can't! It's a pig! Look out, it's Spider-Pig! D

**The fragrance:**
The fragrance begins quite sweetly and synthetically, as you can imagine with such fragrances. It also has fruity echoes that I can't really smell out.
The sweetness comes first from the jasmine, but later more from the musk. A slight herbaceous note seems to radiate from the background, but quickly fades away.
In the base, the fragrance is slightly more woody and spicy, the synthetic notes remain, and the fragrance is also still sweet.

**The Sillage and the shelf life:**
The Sillage isn't really worth mentioning. In the beginning you might smell the scent on you, but then it loses its power much too fast, so that you won't emit a big scent cloud with it.
The shelf life is also low, as the fragrance can hardly be perceived after three to four hours.

**The bottle:**
The bottle is red and has a tactile spider's web pattern on the front, with the Spider-Man logo in black in the middle. The lid is also black, cylindrical and also on it you can see (now in white) the logo of Spider-Man. Thematically it already looks cool made :D

Okay, as expected, the fragrance is absolutely irrelevant, and it smells quite synthetic, especially in the base. Fortunately, he hasn't become too smelly now either. I myself would not necessarily wear it (no matter how often you call me a nerd here, I don't have to have EVERYTHING!!! Whereby I recently got plush eggs in the form of comic heroes, because they were reduced to 1 euro, uh.... but that's another story :DD).

But as a souvenir or as a small gift for children who don't mind perfumes (there are also kiddies who are interested in scents), it's ideal, especially since the bottle looks cool. And since the Sillage is not so strong and goes down quickly with time, the parents won't necessarily be annoyed if the little Spiderschwein... um... Spider-Man fan should spray himself again and again with it :D

See you next time! Many greetings,
the friendly spider from the neighborhood!
