The story behind the bottle.
Flowerbomb Midnight by Viktor&Rolf was launched in 2019 and created by a quartet of renowned perfumers: Carlos Benaïm, Fanny Bal, Dominique Ropion, and Domitille Michalon Bertier. This fragrance is a nocturnal interpretation of the iconic Flowerbomb, with a rich blend of fruity and floral notes that evoke the mystique of night-blooming jasmine and peony. The top notes of black currant and pomegranate introduce an initial burst of freshness, leading into a heart of white florals that are enveloped in musky warmth. Vanilla adds a touch of sweetness to the base, creating a scent that is both alluring and comforting.
Apply Flowerbomb Midnight to pulse points for a warm and intimate presence. The fruity top notes are fleeting, but the musky base will linger throughout the evening. For optimal effect, let it settle on your skin for about five minutes before heading out.
