Synthetic Cherry Done Right
I am quite excited about this fragrance. It smells very synthetic. Many people would not associate anything good with it, but I am happy that I found a cherry scent that lasts longer than 2-3 hours. Alongside the cherry "chewy candy" note, there is an interesting leather note that is certainly meant to imitate something like latex. Beneath that, we find a not overly pronounced smoky note.
It lasts well on the skin for about 8-10 hours. The sillage is rather moderate, but maybe that's for the best, as for some women, like my girlfriend, the scent is definitely too synthetic at first. My male friends, on the other hand, all found it good to very good. Born Screaming is definitely unisex, and I can easily imagine smelling this on a confident, heavily tattooed, alternatively dressed young woman.
All in all, it is a very wearable fragrance. I think it will come across even better in winter on my leather jacket.

So clean so fresh
Nasomatto is one of the houses that I truly love. So take my review with a grain of salt, as the saying goes. I have either purchased or sampled almost all Nasomatto fragrances. Therefore, I believe I can assess the position of this scent within the Nasomatto line.
Scent:
Silver Musk is a very safe fragrance that would not offend anyone. It is a blend of several musk notes that together smell very "clean." Almost like freshly washed laundry in the closet. There is also a mineral note, almost a metallic note (perhaps that's why it's called SILVER Musk), that blends so well that they truly become one. When I say "safe scent," I mean a fragrance that, no matter how much you spray, will never be intrusive or overwhelming. It simply smells clean and innocent.
Sillage + Longevity
The sillage is decent in the first 2 hours but not overwhelming. You have a very clean-smelling aura that everyone will notice. After about 3 hours, it becomes a skin scent that is wonderfully pleasant for perhaps a total of 6 hours. I like to use it as an office fragrance, and I have never received a single negative comment about it (compared to other scents :D). I have never used it in the peak summer, but I believe it is still wearable in 30+ degrees.
The fragrance is really good for layering. If you have a fresh or citrusy scent that you wish had a bit better longevity, spray this on. I combined it for fun with Blue Moon from Brooklyn Soap Company, and it was amazing. This is my go-to scent after the gym. My girlfriend loves it; the fruitiness of Blue Moon and the cleanliness of Silver Musk is incredible. But just Silver Musk after showering at the gym is great too.
I know there are other very nice "clean" fragrances out there, but so far, I only know Silver Musk. L'Eau Papier is said to be comparable. But I can't provide a direct comparison.

It stands out.
I recently ordered 2 Discovery Sets from Fischersund because I was simply curious after reading the website and the descriptions of the fragrances. Útilykt stands out positively, I must say.
Útilykt translates to "The Scent of the Outdoors," and when I imagine a country like Iceland, the scent hits the nail on the head. It has an unusual freshness that I have never smelled before. Just a fresh scent that is not packed with citrus notes or mint. The essential oils from Siberian fir, combined with the ozone note, must be the reason. Compared to the other fragrances in the Discovery Set, this one is very wearable.
The sillage is stronger than one perceives at first, which is why I would refrain from applying more than 3-4 sprays in enclosed spaces. Also, the longevity on my skin is really good. There is a nice scent aura of 1-1.5m, which only disappears after 6 hours and becomes more intimate, yet it still lasts for at least another 4-5 hours.
The only point of criticism is the price. 190 euros + 20 euros shipping for 50ml is, in my opinion, too much, no matter how unusual and beautiful it may be. If I were to imagine someone wearing this scent, the first person that comes to mind would be a black metal fan, regardless of gender, with long hair and a leather jacket.
