I almost didn't watch this series as I already saw the movie Perfume and read the book it was based on. Luckely someone told me it's not another version of it. It merely uses the crime in the book and weaves another story around it.

Much like the crime from the book/movie a lot of the plot has already been done in many other series and movies and come over as clichéd and a filler for the grand story [spoiler](the love triangles, the cheating husband, the crazy lovestruck woman, the disjointed highschool friendships, the slut, the jock, the weirdo, the loving,...).[/spoiler] It also incorporates a shitload of red herrings putting suspicion on each and every character at one point or the other that can be refuted later on the series. I'm not quite sure yet if it's a cheap way of doing whodunnits but it works.

In the end it's one of the people you at one point or the other suspected, you won't be surprised but you will be slightly flabbergasted for other reasons. All in all this is a very well made, typically neo-German series, that will keep you watching till the very end.
