The Force is not strong with this one!
Star Wars! A film series that has thrilled a multitude of people (and which, due to their enthusiasm, are insulted as nerds, even though they are such lovely people) and (stereotypically) there are still women who don’t know or dislike Star Wars and never, EVER want to have anything to do with it.
* sigh *
As a single, I should probably not mention that I also like Star Wars and even own some figures… but R2-D2 is just so cute to cuddle… (that reminds me, I absolutely need to get the figure of BB-8 ^_^ ).
So, I could already "feel" upon entering the store that "something" was present, because you know, the Force is omnipresent. It surrounds us and penetrates us, as Yoda taught us with his over 800 years of wisdom.
And then I saw them. Three flacons in the shape of lightsabers, which attracted me faster than the Death Star did the Millennium Falcon in the first Star Wars film and put a smile on my face.
But the Force was not with me…
The scent:
It starts fresh with vaguely defined notes. Well, at first it just smells like "blue" or aquatic-sporty shower gel.
A little later, woody notes come in, mainly sandalwood.
Towards the base, you catch a hint of sweetness that briefly smells like tonka bean, but then turns out to be a light and synthetic musk.
And all the notes smell quite synthetic. The scent remains this way and does not change further, making it unfortunately too unremarkable.
The sillage and longevity:
The sillage is average and will be noticeable at first, but quickly loses strength and dissipates soon, similar to how shower gels quickly lose their effect after a shower.
Thus, the longevity is rather weak and will hardly smell after three to four hours.
The flacon:
At first glance, the flacon looks quite nice, as it has the shape of a lightsaber (and could thus also seem like a toy). Upon closer inspection, however, you can see that it is made of rather cheap plastic and the mechanism to raise and lower the spray head is very fragile. Two out of three testers were already broken in the store, so they could no longer be used for spraying.
Yaa…
Everyone would love to be a Jedi (or Sith). Just the thought of being able to move objects with the Force as if by magic is probably one of humanity's oldest and most desired dreams. That’s why Jedis are so well-liked. But this Jedi here unfortunately has absolutely NOTHING going for him…
He smells completely insignificant, absolutely artificial, and just like a shower gel trimmed for the mainstream. For younger people or children, it might be usable, as it can be particularly fun for the little ones to use the original, but unfortunately fragile, lightsaber flacon, but everyone else who wants a nice scent could be deeply disappointed, especially if they are a Star Wars fan.
No, this was definitely nothing. I would rather win against a Wookiee in Dejarik chess and have my arms twisted out of their sockets as a punishment than use this scent… :D
