You smell so good!
Rammstein.
The band that a resourceful music editor once labeled "Teutonic metal".
The band that has been with me since my school days.
I remember when my parents bought a satellite dish and I finally got to enjoy MTV, VIVA and VIVA2.
I fervently recorded every episode of "Headbanger's Ballroom" on VHS tape and couldn't help but watch the music videos for "Engel" and "Du riechst so gut" for the first time in my life.
Who could have guessed back then that the band around Till Lindemann would leave such an immense footprint in pop culture?
Fast forward a few decades. You can now fill your entire household with Rammstein memorabilia. From snow globes and doormats to fire barrels, there's nothing you can't buy with the iconic Rammstein logo.
So it's all the more logical that there must also be Rammstein perfume.
I have to admit that I've grown weary of the whole merchandise machinery and avoid buying any band "trinkets" apart from T-shirts.
That's why I've largely ignored the fragrances over the years.
Over time, however, there were more and more voices attesting to the good quality of Rammstein perfumes. And here on Parfumo, too, most of the fragrances came off well. "Kokain Gold" was even described as the best perfume from the "Maison le Rammstein" fragrance house.
So I thought to myself: "Oh come on, you can't go wrong for 30 EUR at Rossmann."
I couldn't either. I liked Cocaine Gold from the very first second.
It starts off smoky, herbaceous and even reminded me a little of Wow! for Men Eau de Toilette at first.
However, the herbaceousness fades very quickly - in contrast to WOW! - very quickly and makes way for a sweet, spicy, warm woody note with a hint of leather.
It's definitely not a fragrance that will please everyone and everything. It's probably too smoky, too edgy, too special for that.
And I probably won't be able to wear it every day either.
But every now and then - maybe at the weekends - I'll put it on and then I'll be a bit of a chubby teenager again, sitting at home with my parents in the living room, drinking Coke and watching "You smell so good" on VHS.
