Flowerbomb Swarovski édition Noël 2016

In this context, Swarovski has over time adapted its expertise to create a multitude of jewelry pieces accessible to the widest audience. At the same time, it has also partnered with numerous Haute Couture houses to create ever more fascinating works with them. This time, Swarovski offers a reinterpretation of the iconic Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf.

Swarovski's multiple collaborations with Viktor & Rolf

Even though this news is sure to delight fans of the Viktor & Rolf house, it should be noted that Swarovski's association with this brand is not a first attempt. Indeed, these two giants of the luxury world have made a habit of collaborating to create all kinds of objects. Thus, while they do craft jewelry proper, Swarovski also embellishes an iconic bottle by Viktor & Rolf each year. This is why, in 2014, Flowerbomb had already been reinterpreted in a Deluxe edition. This version kept Flowerbomb's grenade shape, but its various facets were then covered in all of Swarovski's brilliance. To be more precise, this bottle was decorated with 2900 crystals with black highlights. The whole was also delivered to the customer in a leather case signed Viktor & Rolf. Given the success of this prestige edition, Viktor & Rolf and Swarovski decided to repeat the experience. In 2015, it was Bonbon's turn to shine brightly. It then sculpted the lines of its bow using multiple small Swarovski crystals. Thus, the delicacy of its glass pleating was enhanced by the sparkle of Swarovski's craftsmanship. Following on from these two creations, it is once again Flowerbomb's turn to be enhanced by the expertise of this extraordinary jeweler.

The new Flowerbomb Edition Swarovski

While Flowerbomb Edition Swarovski clearly aims to surprise, it is above all thanks to its bottle. Indeed, its fragrance remains unchanged and follows the same recipe as before. It is an oriental, floral and gourmand juice. It opens with a fresh combination of bergamot and tea. These two ingredients then give way to a more floral heart composed of jasmine, orange blossom, orchid, rose and freesia. Finally, the whole gradually develops into a more sensual and smooth texture based on patchouli and musk. In terms of aesthetics, however, Flowerbomb Edition Swarovski is absolutely fascinating. Its facets are covered with a multitude of crystals. These are arranged so as to form multiple corollas. Thus, the design of Flowerbomb Edition Swarovski strongly evokes the multitude of flowers it contains. The whole is crafted in silver, white and pink tones. The overall effect is very feminine and particularly luxurious. Thus, Viktor & Rolf's iconic grenade only needs to be unpinned to release its magical, bewitching power, akin to that of a diamond.
