One of the more rare and exclusive Sonic the Hedgehog items! Difficult to find, and great to collect! Wow!
Sonic the Hedgehog perfume bottle & box!
This cool and unusual item is by Segura Perfumes and comes from Spain. It was released in 1992. As you can see, the head is really rather advanced for the time, as Sonic was still mostly in the "2D" era, and they really did quite nicely with the spikes. The head is soft rubber, and covers a traditional 'sprayer'. While the head is well done, the "Body Art" on the bottle is rather mutant! That is the fattest, goofiest redition of Sonic possibly ever. You can really tell that they weren't paying attention, because he only has 4 fingers while EVERY single image of him on the box shows 5. The background? A screen-cap of a Sonic 2 level.
What is the official Sonic the Hedgehog smell?
This is officially "Eau De Toilette", but it is billed as either a perfume or a cologne. What is the difference? Who knows, but probably boys or girls could wear it. Until someone invents the iSmell for the internet, you'll have to buy some to see what it is like. (darn! but Gear will bring you the file if someone ever DOES invent an ismell)
The smell is rather...expected if you have sniffed perfumes before. It is not food-like, flowery, candy-like, sweet, or bitter. It is not like a musk or a deoderant. It is not particularly fresh. If you rule out perfumes described by the above words, you're left with ones which may smell similar to this. Complicated? Yes. Try walking into a perfume store and smelling the air, it's kind of like that.
A bit more detail for the rare Sonic Perfume...
The interior of the box (not seen above) is also printed with Sonic logos & the forward-facing-face stock art that it's based on. Then, when the plastic Sonic head shaped cap is removed from the bottle, it reveals the ordinary sprayer top.
The box interior being printed shows that it went the extra mile for the perfume/it is a nice luxury-type touch to add and not all things do this. Seeing that the sprayer is ordinary is also mildly interesting.
