Which Should You Buy?
The Fragrance World UK's £4.95/30ml interpretation of Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb (2005) - the pyramid maps the original's bergamot opening, rose heart, and patchouli dry-down. Liverpool dupe-house pricing on a recognisable smell-alike for casual rotation.
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb (2005) - the Olivier Polge, Carlos Benaim, Dominique Ropion and Domitille Bertier sweet-floral feminine that became Viktor & Rolf's commercial signature, here translated into a tea-osmanthus opening over jasmine and rose with a patchouli-vanilla close. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening feminine wear at a fraction of the designer price.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The bergamot-led opening and patchouli-anchored close mirror the original's seasonal range, though the budget composition fades faster than the Viktor & Rolf bottle in heavier conditions.
Occasions
A budget interpretation that keeps the original's structure - the dupe reads cleaner and shorter, making it best suited to casual rotation rather than as a replacement for the Viktor & Rolf signature.
Seasons
Sweet-floral-patchouli structure works spring through autumn; winter softer.
Occasions
Romantic sweet-floral fits date, evening; office and casual work for fans of the sweet style.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Floral, Sweet, Patchouli accords and Bergamot, Tea notes
