Launched in 2018 by Viktor&Rolf, Flowerbomb Nectar is an Oriental Floral fragrance created by perfumers Domitille Michalon Bertier, Olivier Polge, Dominique Ropion, and Carlos Benaïm. The composition opens with gunpowder and cassis, creating a striking contrast that immediately captures attention before blossoming into the heart of osmanthus and jasmine sambac. This floral warmth is further enhanced by vanilla and tonka bean, grounded by smoky patchouli and benzoin, resulting in a scent that is both unexpected and deeply comforting.

Application Tips
Apply Flowerbomb Nectar in light spritzes — the gunpowder top note fades quickly but leaves room for the floral heart to shine. The vanilla and tonka base notes will develop gradually over time, so it’s best enjoyed close to skin rather than across a room.
