Viktor & Rolf are a design firm which adds plenty of uniqueness to the world of fashion and that unique attitude and presentation extends itself to their fragrance line. The massive success of Flowerbomb has propelled it into the world of best sellers year after year and it almost trades solely on its reputation alone. However, that is not the only scent available from the designers and while their catalog in this realm isn’t too extensive their are still some wonderful parfums to be had.
What are the Best Smelling Viktor & Rolf Perfumes?
Most Popular
Flowerbomb By Viktor & Rolf For Women – EDP Spray 1 oz
Flowerbomb opens up with its great tea note, which is one of the highlights of this fragrance. It is paired with a light but somewhat sharp bergamot citrus note. Next, comes the flower part of the ‘bomb’.
Orchid, jasmine, rose, freesia, among others. It’s a beautiful array, with a lively freshness provided by the top notes.
Finally, you get to the patchouli, which is the star of the show and brings it together. Flowerbomb brings the power and performance, with an awesome aroma. It’s no wonder why it is a best seller.
Aquatic Floral
Eau Mega by Viktor & Rolf Eau De Parfum Spray 1.7 oz
For me, Eau Mega starts off as a water floral mix, mainly of peony, with a crisp pear note. It’s nice and simple, with a somewhat soapy quality to it. Honestly, this is my least favorite of these Viktor & Rolf perfumes. Nonetheless, it deserves a spot on the list.
It’s a musky floral, with green cleanliness, and hints of fruit throughout. This is a good option for daily wear or casual wear during the spring and summer months. Gives you a fresh scent to spray on, without any worries. Eau Mega Full Review
Top Sweet Pick
Victor & Rolf Bonbon Eau de Parfum Spray, 1.7 Fluid Ounce
Bonbon kicks off things with a bright and delicious aroma of mandarin orange mixed with peach. Of course, there is the caramel note, which is present throughout but it’s a fruity affair up top. Next, I tend to pick up on plenty of orange blossom.
When the caramel comes in fully, it is joined by a warm and salty amber note. This pairing gets creamy with an added sandalwood, along with the peach note still floating around. The performance on this one will give one an 8 or so hour wear. A lovely sweet gourmand scent. Bonbon Full Review
Best Flowerbomb Flanker
Viktor & Rolf Flower Bomb Nectar Intense for Women Eau De Parfum, 3.04 Fl Oz– Nectar shares plenty of DNA with the original Flowerbomb, but goes in more of a different direction. The opening is a blend of candy-like fruity sweetness and the floral notes.
Jasmine and orange blossom without the rose, freesia, and orchid of the original. The drydown is a blend of vanilla and patchouli mainly, but also flanked by the enveloping creaminess of tonka bean and a nice benzoin touch.
The performance here is great with plenty of sillage and it will last pretty much all day. Don’t go for this one, if you aren’t in the market for something loud and sweet, because that’s what you’ll get here.
Top Newer Release
Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid– Ruby Orchid has become one of the more popular fragrances from this line and it’s quite good. Maybe a notch below Nectar, but it sort of depends on your own style.
This one is sweet, with a solid dose of vanilla orchid and peach to go into the composition. You can tell that it’s a Flowerbomb flanker, as it shares enough overlap with the original. The sillage here is lighter but does have a certain thickness to it, with a fruity sweet blend that has a seductive quality to it.
The opening fruitiness does lean hard towards the peach note, but it kind of comes across as a jammy fruity mix. The dry down is a vanilla, floral, musk trio with some of that sweetness sticking around.

Best Men’s Colognes started back in 2013, as a way to share my learning experiences with different fragrances, as I dove head first into the hobby. Since then, I have written hundreds of reviews and other pages about perfumes and colognes.
