Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Review

I was a little apprehensive about this fragrance after reading a previous review but was pleasantly surprised

Firstly, I really like the packaging of this. The light pink is not to girly when it is contrasted with the black ribbon, and the ‘grenade’ bottle referencing the name of the fragrance

The main accords of Flowerbomb are white floral, patchouli, green tea, and citrus. I did not feel it was sweet and sickly as some others have mentioned and would describe it as soft, alluring, warm, and pretty!

Lasting power is good, especially when used on pulse points

One thing that I would like to point out is that this fragrance seems to sit very differently on people. I would strongly recommend testing this on yourself before buying, not just because you love the smell on someone else (this is a good rule of thumb anyway will all fragrances!)

I will definitely keep wearing this, makes getting ready in the morning that extra bit nicer!

I actually didn't realise this scent was very hyped/marketed. Years ago now I saw an ad in a Vanity Fair, smelled it and knew I'd found the new scent for me. I'm on my second bottle of the 50ml EDP.

I love it. I wear it almost every day (switching up with J'adore). I still often get compliments on it when I am out. I am a fan of floral perfumes, and this one just really hits the mark for me every time. I particularly like the jasmine undertones.

I also really like the bottle, I think it is exceptionally pretty, but nicely designed for the name of the fragrance. You don't need to use a lot, I generally just use one spray for my neck/wrists and it lasts well.

I LOVE FlowerBomb. It is a beautiful scent and I always get so many comments from people when I wear it. I think what I love most about the fragrance is how it deepens the longer it has been on you, and it stays for ages. I often put jumpers/jackets on that I realise I must have sprayed flower bomb onto ages ago. It really holds on!

I really did love the smell of this, really quite sweet and floral, loved it lasted so long and it's cute little bottle suited it's name so well!! But I honestly was not "wowed" due to the price, there are a lot of similar fragrances out there for a lot less, if I'm going to pay this much for a perfume I have to be absolutely AMAZED! Think its more suited to summer then winter due to it's sweet floral tones though

I received this perfume as a present and I use it a lot. I always get comments when I wear it which is nice. I've found that it smells quite vanillary on me which is kinda weird, but I think it's one of those fragrances that really does change depending on who is wearing it. It lasts all day and I can still smell it on my clothes, scarf etc the next day.

This fragrance literally is an explosion on your skin, it is so beautiful and fragrant, the floral tones lasts all day on your skin. With the first spray i was in love, it is so different to all the floral fragrances out there. When travelling i buy the miniatures that way i can keep one my handbag, at my desk at work, one in the car. You never know when you might need a little hit of Flowerbomb.

Strong and complex, there's no mistaking the scent of Victor & Rolf's Flowerbomb! Somehow it smells expensive. Not for everyday, but for every day you want to be energised and 'on'. Love.

I think the hype surrounding this perfume works against it. It is touted as a modern classic, when to be fair, it is fairly generic.

It is possible the EDP may have more 'layers', but the EDT, to me anyway, is just another burnt sugar type of scent, with a hint of patchoulli.

It is very cloying and overly sweet.

Flowerbomb is my current perfume and I do love the smell but one thing that frustrates me about it is that it does not last on your skin all day like most other EDP. I tried the EDT recently and found that that actually stays on better :). I keep going back to it as as I said I love the fresh smell and the bottle is beautiful and good size for handbag.

I just brought this duty free about two weeks ago. I've already had a few comments on it already. I can smell it throughout the day which is a quality in perfume that I like. A little expensive even duty free. Not on a students budget but still a lovely product.
