Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf is an oriental-floral fragrance for women, launched in 2005 and created by the star perfumer team of Olivier Polge, Carlos Benaïm, Domitille Michalon Bertier, and Dominique Ropion. The fragrance quickly became an icon and won the FiFi Award for Best National Advertising Campaign (2006).
The composition opens with fresh and slightly sweet accords of tea, bergamot, and osmanthus, which lend an ethereal quality and elegant radiance. At its heart, a luxurious floral bouquet of orchid, jasmine, rose, freesia, and African orange blossom blooms, creating a rich, feminine, and seductive aura.
The base notes of patchouli, musk, and vanilla add warmth, oriental sensuality, and a powdery softness that gently envelops the skin and leaves a long-lasting, addictive trail.
The bottle, designed by Fabien Baron, is shaped like a diamond-cut pomegranate—a symbol of the fragrance’s explosive, dazzling, and glamorous character. Flowerbomb is a fragrance of luxury, romance, and feminine power.
