Flowerbomb Extreme Eau de Parfum Intense

A manifesto film between glamour and surrealism

Directed by Inez & Vinoodh, an iconic fashion duo

To celebrate the Extreme version of their floral bomb, Viktor&Rolf entrusted the camera to the duo Inez & Vinoodh. The short film More is More opens on a twilight New York alley. A female silhouette in a magenta lamé dress advances in slow motion; each step triggers an invisible gust that rains down glittering petals. In the first close-up, the petals turn into sparkling confetti, a direct nod to the lacquered bottle. The soundtrack, a dark-disco remix, pulses the tempo between heartbeats and a distorted guitar riff, heightening the tension before the final explosion.

The key scene: the floral detonation

The film's high point: the character, played by the Franco-British actress Lily Collins, presses the pin of the grenade-shaped bottle. The shot switches to macro: the sprayer releases a magenta cloud that transforms into an actual 3D flower, suspended in the air before fragmenting into thousands of sparks. This floral bullet time embodies the promise of the juice: an olfactory explosion that slows time to better overwhelm the senses.

Print visuals: the flower that swirls in the dark

Fruity-floral color palette

The posters draw on three dominant tones: abyssal black for the background, metallic magenta for the bottle, and fuchsia pink flashes for the petals. At the center of the visual, the polygonal bottle shines like a raw diamond while a crown of stylized flowers spirals around it. The tagline More is More stands out in silver capitals, echoing the chrome pin.

Landscape and portrait formats

In horizontal format, the campaign relies on symmetry: the bottle on the left, a neon portrait of Lily Collins on the right, separated by a plume of digital flowers that connects the two worlds. In vertical format, the bottle occupies the central axis, reinforcing the idea of a precious totem ready to be triggered.

Media plan: 360 degrees and social-first

#MoreIsMoreChallenge on TikTok

The digital launch relies on an AR filter: the user blows toward the screen, triggering a virtual rain of magenta petals around their face. More than 150,000 UGC videos were produced in one week, generating an estimated organic reach of 200 million views. The challenge encouraged users to overlay an official sound, Extreme Drop, mixed exclusively for the occasion, to reinforce the campaign's sonic consistency.

3D screens and dynamic OOH

In Times Square as on the facade of Printemps Haussmann, an anamorphic 3D bottle appeared to burst out of the screen; in slow motion, the pin ejected, then a cloud of petals cascaded down onto passers-by. Motion sensors triggered the scene: the denser the pedestrian flow, the higher the frequency of the explosions, playing on live interaction.

Commercial impact and critical reception

Record engagement within 48 hours

The official Instagram Reel reached one million likes in two days, doubling the performance of the previous flanker Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid. Searches for Flowerbomb Extreme climbed on Google Trends as soon as the film was released, while the 10 ml travel size sold out on the house's online store.

Press and influence

Fashion magazines praise the balance between fruity gourmand character and oriental intensity, noting that the film perfectly captures the fragrance's sweet-dark duality. Fragrance influencers, for their part, welcome a campaign that makes one want to dance as much as to wear perfume.
