With a suitable decomposition of its energy-momentum tensor into pressureless matter and a vacuum type term, we investigate the spherical gravitational collapse of a minimally coupled, self-interacting scalar field, showing that it collapses to a singularity. The formed blackhole has a mass (in Planck units), where m is the mass of the scalar field. If the latter has the axion mass,
eV, the former has a mass
