This is one of the best series I've seen in a while! It is a German series that has a dubbed version in English for those of you who don't like to read subtitles. I requested this series today so hopefully, we will have it soon. It is a Thriller/Mystery with exceptional actors and storyline. When we get this one definitely give it a watch, I was really impressed with it. smiley

Ta very much, Teeny. I'll check it out. :)


www.imdb.com/title/tt6811236/

"Based on motives by the global best-seller of the same name by Patrick Suskind, the Perfume series shifts the action to the modern day and uses the book's idea of manipulating people through scent as a springing-off point. A young profiler investigating a series of brutal murders traces events back to a small cadre of boys at a boarding school who experimented with manipulating people using human scents."

@ Why would "someone" reply to my forum if it only comes up, comment is hidden. That is really ridiculous in my opinion

I hate to say,in Oregon people almost attack you for wearing scent because all the GREENIES HERE scream and get hystericaly paranoid over any PERFUME.--A good reason not to visit or live here,you can't go ANYWHERE out of your house without being blamed for activating everyone's asthma!

Its that modern theory of "I'm allergic to EVERYTHING,I'M blaming you for destroying my immune system!"If they catch the mirest whiff of roses,screaming & attacking you is seen as "their right!"Forget a whole valley of grass-seed burning, tons of SMOG,a whole valley's air of vehicle-exhaust in your face!

NO, ITS GOTTA BE PERFUME that's killing me!---YOUR PERFUME.RICH GREENIES in the Willamette Valley don't mind vehicle exhaust,BUT PERFUME?CHIMPANZEES don't wear perfume, why should we~? smiley

I finished this series last night and OMG it was GREAT! They do quote the Book/Movie Perfume. I loved the story and all the actors in this one. This is also one where you are trying to guess who's the killer until the very end. My husband and I would both have a different opinion of who it was on each episode...we were both wrong. I hope this added soon, I know a lot of you here will love it as well smiley

@Teeny💋 It added just around after you made the post, which was great.

It is a slow burner but i love those when it comes to the "murder mystery", thoroughly enjoyed it through and through.

That ending, is another topic to talk about.. [SPOILER]

@Teeny💋 The main character is a remarkable individual, with a fantastic "gift". There is black humor in the tale, too. I think you'll like it:-)

I'll watch it. Thanks for the recommendation Teeny, I always look for your reviews even though I do not like horror movies all that much. I love the book by Suskind so this should be very interesting.

There's a movie by the same name on here that I watched in the last year or so. It was pretty weird, but I really liked it.

@◦•●◉✿♡Momof3αηgєℓѕ♡✿◉●•◦ Perfume: The Story of a Murderer is a 1985 literary historical fantasy novel by German writer Patrick Süskind.

Then in 2006 they made a wonderful film with Hoffman and Ben Whitshaw dosmovies.com/watch_movie/Perfume_The_St.... . This film is much more detailed in the buildup and execution of the story.

Now this series is loosely based on the abstraction of the perfume and its uses and abuses as told in the book but that is just a part of the story here.

@..box.. Okay and yeah, that's the movie I was talking about. Have you seen it? I don't want to say too much, but the end was crazy.

I hadn't seen the 2006 movie you mentioned. The title and the Way this series was described I instantly thought about that movie, but wasn't sure if it was related in any way. Thanks for all the info on this. I think I'm going to have to check it out.

@◦•●◉✿♡Momof3αηgєℓѕ♡✿◉●•◦ I've seen the movie as well. The series is different but they use the book in the series, I know that isn't explaining much but I don't want to spoil the series for you if you watch it.
BTW..I saw a good found footage movie this week, check out Exhibit A

@Teeny💋 Im weird when it comes to tv show/series so i don't know if I'll be able to get into it or not. There's only one way to find out, i guess.

And I watched that ff movie a long time ago on here. It was so good. Thank for looking out for me.

@Sultan90 I still haven't checked it out yet, but I plan too. I've seen a few say they liked it and hadn't really seen anything negative. Granted, I wasn't exactly looking for it either.
