Floral · Fruity · Sweet
Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Nectar is a sweet, fruity floral built around orange blossom, jasmine and vanilla, made for women and suited to evenings and nights out.
It opens with bergamot and blackcurrant, with gun powder adding a slightly sharp edge. The heart is floral, with orange blossom absolute, osmanthus and jasmine sambac absolute. The base of vanilla, tonka bean, patchouli and benzoin pushes it into gourmand sweetness, with a synthetic sheen in the background.
Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, while summer trails behind. It is chosen most for nights out and evenings, and less for daily wear or the office. Voters mostly call its character feminine, and some find it modern.
