Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb Rose Explosion is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. Flowerbomb Rose Explosion opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Pink Pepper, and Saffron, and settles into a heart of Olive, Rose, and Jasmine. It lasts about 6 to 10 hours on skin, fills a room and is best in autumn and winter. Viktor&Rolf's Flowerbomb Rose Explosion carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

A big, spiced rose with saffron and pink pepper up front and an unexpected savoury olive twist at the heart. Rich, heady, long-lasting and loud: one for evenings, with a lot of presence.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the pyramid as published, not a timing claim. Each note's timing follows its listed tier, where it usually sits across many published pyramids (from ScentPrism) and its vapour pressure. A note comes through as the notes usually listed before it fade, judged from how other pyramids order the same pair. The thickness of a ribbon shows the note's share of what is left on the skin, which tracks how strongly it smells, because odour thresholds rise with vapour pressure. The shares come from how prominent wearers vote each note. It is a simple model, not a measurement.

About

Rose Explosion opens with a bang. Saffron leads with a warm, golden spice, and bergamot, mandarin and pink pepper add citrus and heat around it. The heart is rose, rich and heady, with jasmine adding to the richness. Olive is the odd note, a savoury, slightly green twist that gives the sweetness a surprising edge. On the skin it is bold and long-lasting, with a strong reach that fills the space around you. A little goes a long way. It is made for autumn and winter evenings, dates and special occasions, when the size of the scent is an asset. It is far too much for the office or the gym. If you want a spiced, powerful rose, it delivers.
