Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Spicebomb Eau de Toilette
A warm, spicy explosion that's a crowd-pleaser for a reason. While its many flankers might vex some, the original Spicebomb is a reliably potent, compliment-getting winter warmer that'll stand strong in any smoky bar.

Our Verdict - Spicebomb Eau de Parfum
The Essence Vault's interpretation of Viktor&Rolf's Spicebomb (2012) - Olivier Polge's pepper-cinnamon-tobacco grenade-bottle masculine, here translated into a budget reading with the pepper-cinnamon-tobacco-leather spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening and date wear in cooler weather.

Season and Occasion Fit

Spicebomb Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its potent projection and warm, spicy accords make it less suitable for the office. However, it's a stellar choice for dates and evening casual wear, as its seductive nature is often noted by wearers for bars and intimate settings. It leans too casual for formal events and is entirely unsuitable for sport.

Autumn Winter

Pepper-cinnamon-tobacco-leather is autumn-winter natural; summer too heavy.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
