The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2013 by Viktor&Rolf, Flowerbomb La Vie en Rose is a vibrant Oriental Floral fragrance that captures the essence of unexpected sweetness. The composition opens with bright mandarin orange and green tea, creating an immediate freshness that contrasts beautifully with the heart notes of rose, lily-of-the-valley, and candied almond. This interplay between fruity zing and floral softness gives way to a warm base of patchouli, cashmere wood, and amber, providing a comforting embrace.
Apply this fragrance with a light hand — the top notes are bright and can be overpowering if used too heavily. The base notes develop slowly over time, so it's best to let them bloom naturally throughout the day.
