Flowerbomb is the first fragrance from Viktor & Rolf, the house of Dutch designers Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren. Launched in 2005 with L’Oréal and signed by Olivier Polge, Carlos Benaïm and Domitille Bertier, the eau de parfum brings together tea, bergamot, sambac jasmine, Cattleya orchid and rose over a base of amber and patchouli, in a faceted grenade-shaped bottle.
The house today describes an opening of tea, bergamot and freesia, a bouquet of sambac jasmine, Cattleya orchid and centifolia rose, and a base of amber, cashmeran and patchouli. Cashmeran, cited only for the current formula, stays in the prose.
The 2005 formula
At launch, the announced notes already included tea, bergamot, sambac jasmine, Cattleya orchid, freesia and rose, along with an orange-tree note, amber, musk and patchouli. Orange tree and musk no longer appear in the house’s current description.
