When I'm choosing a new perfume there are 2 things that I am drawn to. My absolute favourite types of fragrance are zesty, fruity scents and coming an extremely close second are pretty florals. As it's name would suggest Flowerbomb Eau De Parfum* is an explosion of flowery scents perfectly blended together. There are notes of freesia, centifolia rose, sambac jasmine and osmanthus with underlying hints of patchouli.
I think you would be hard pressed to find any other fragrance with more of a flirty feminine scent as this! There is a very overpowering sickly sweet scent to start with which I'm not too keen on. After about half an hours wear I find that sweetness subsides a little bit to reveal a really delicious fragrance which places my mind right in the middle of a flowering spring garden. I love the idea of the different floral notes combined together but that sickly smell has a tendency to reappear every now and then which, I'll be brutally honest, just makes me want to wash it off.
I think if you like very sweet smelling floral perfumes then this will be an absolute win for you but I don't think this is one that I would find myself purchasing. You can buy this from various places such as Boots and it is available in 30ml (£49), 50ml (£65) and 100ml (£90). Quite expensive I think but it does last all day so if you are in love with the scent it would be worth the price.
Ive received one of these and LOVE the scent but I am gutted that I am allergic, couldn't stop sneezing and got headache :(
ReplyDeleteKind of glad as the price tag is a little higher than my usual perfumes xx
Sorry to hear that :( I'd hate not being able to wear my favourite perfumes. Fingers crossed that you can find a similar perfume that you'll be able to wear :)
DeleteI've never tried Victor and Rolf before, although Ive seen they done a perfume candle which I would love to try! xx

DeleteFlowerbomb is amazing! Just wish it would go back to the price it was BEFORE it blew up!! Used to only be $75 for the large bottle! I'm your newest follower! Cheers! www.madmakeuplove.blogspot.com
