The Story

Launched in 2018, Flowerbomb Christmas 2018 Edition by Viktor&Rolf is a collaboration between perfumers Carlos Benaïm, Dominique Ropion, Domitille Michalon Bertier, and Olivier Polge. This Oriental Floral fragrance opens with the bright zest of lime and tea, leading to a heart of osmanthus, jasmine, orange blossom, freesia, and rose. The base notes of orchid, patchouli, and musk create a warm, enveloping finish that feels like an embrace during the holiday season. This edition captures the essence of the festive spirit with its blend of floral sweetness and citrus freshness.

Application Tips

Apply this fragrance in light layers for a more nuanced experience. The lime and tea top notes are fleeting but vibrant; allow them to transition into the floral heart before reapplying if needed. This scent is best enjoyed close to the skin, where its warmth can be fully appreciated.
