Description
“Nietzsche’s concept for “an over man” who overcomes the herd perspective…” is the inspiration for this EDT.
“Ubermensch is a bold fragrance concept that strives to redefine the male fragrance from an “Uber” perspective.. herbal, spicy and complex, but not in line with the classic take on the male fragrance.
Ubermensch is a rich and seductive fragrance with a smooth, long lasting dry down that defines the “Uber” man who wears it.”
Top notes: Citrus, anise, lavender, pepper
Heart notes: Wormwood, palmarosa, tobacco absolute, vanille

Hi there
I just got a sample of this and wow what an extraordinary scent this is.
Logicmuppet hit the nail on the head when making the connection between this and a motor cycle pulling up a gas station. I could not add anything else to it. however I fail to make a connection to the ubermensch thingy but none the less its very very good indeed.

I won this in the recent giveaway, and I’ve been wearing it all day (Disclaimer: I am female).
I wondered what Nietzsche’s “Uberman” would smell like, while he’s out there transcending conventional morality and all that.
First smell: Walnuts and gasoline!? :O
Second smell: Hm. This is sort of interesting. Hmm…
The pipe tobacco is very, very strong, but strangely, it doesn’t take over the entire scent. I get some vanilla and leather, some cedar and whiffs of a very pleasant, sweet citrus. There is a little bit of something “dirty” in there, not stinky, but not scrubbed-clean either. It’s sweet, in a way, reminiscent of some of the older women’s perfumes I’ve smelled. It dries down to something very nice, with the cedar, vanilla and tobacco taking the spotlight.
To put a picture to the description, think of someone pulling his motorcycle into a remote gas station to fuel up. It’s a really nice day, and you can smell pines or cedars in the warm air. He’s wearing a leather jacket, perhaps has some cigars tucked into a pocket. After he fuels, some of the odor of the gasoline hangs in the air while he swings back over the leather seat.
I kind of like this on myself. This is unusual and not *so* masculine that it would drive me off, though I probably wouldn’t wear it every day In a world of ubersweet fragrances for women, Ubermensch is sort of sunglasses-and-leather cool on me.
EDIT: My boyfriend tried some of this and woweee it smelled so good on him! I ended up giving him the bottle. I guess it smells fine on a woman, but a man really brings it out.
