Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Flowerbomb EDP
Flowerbomb is an irresistible explosion of plush florals and sweet patchouli that commands attention without losing elegance. Its signature is instantly memorable and unapologetically feminine.
Acquired
Our Verdict - VR72 - Flowerbomb EDP
Captures Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb's dense floral-patchouli-sweet formula reasonably well, but the huge, explosive sillage that gives the original its name is scaled right down.

Season and Occasion Fit

Flowerbomb

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

While its floral heart bursts with spring optimism, the sweetness and patchouli-vanilla base lend enough warmth and richness to shine in fall and even winter. It can feel heavy in the hottest weather but thrives in cooler or transitional seasons.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

The lush, sweet floral character and moderate boldness make it an ideal romantic or evening choice, but it can impress in formal settings too. Its projection and richness are less suited for sport or the most conservative office environments.

VR72 - Flowerbomb

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A dense sweet floral-patchouli composition that suits cooler months and evening wear.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

Bold and romantic, best suited to dates and dressier occasions over daytime casual wear.
