Viktor&Rolf FlowerBomb Tiger Lily Eau de Parfum

I have enjoyed wearing this scent so far. It has good projection and longevity. I am not very partial to tropical scents as they are usually overwhelmingly mango based. This one is not that way. The tropical notes are tasteful. There is also a coconut top note to it, which is not overwhelming either. Overall it is a very playful smell, but not cloying. It takes about 4 hours to die down to a skin scent.

For me this perfume is the perfect combination of scents, with the sweet (coconut?) and floral being the predominate scents. Because this is a spray, it’s hard to use just a little, so it started out as a bit overwhelming, but after a half hour, it was a lovely level of scent. I usually spray perfume on my clothing rather than my skin because I have sensitive skin. Even just using it on clothing (no warm pulse points) the scent lingered. I did not notice a significant difference in the evolution of the scent after the initial half hour. Bonus, my husband commented that he liked my new perfume!

The bottle is lovely and will stand out amongt my other clear bottles. It is a generous size and will probably last me for a couple of years. I am quite happy that I ordered this Victor & Rolf Tiger lily Eau de Parfum.

Edit 7/28/24 I have had so many compliments about this scent since I started wearing it.

Fragrance/Perfume is such a deeply personal thing and varies wildly from person to person, depending on body chemistry and a list of other factors. What may smell incredible on one person may come off terrible on another. I’ve done well with Viktor & Rolf fragrance in the past, but I have had some misses too.
That being said, I really went out on a limb when I ordered this. Not only do I like to try a sample size first, but I also loathe the smell of tiger lilies! They remind me of funeral homes, which makes me sad, and tiger lily is the main ‘floral’ note of this perfume. So why did I order it? Well, I couldn’t get past the tropical, coconut and mango notes. So I ordered, crossed my fingers and hoped for the best.

This arrived pretty quick, well packaged in a box that was completely sealed in plastic. I can tell you from experience with the brand that this is 100% legit. All of the info and text inside the box, along with the QR and sku’s brought me back to the Viktor & Rolf website. If that wasn’t enough, the quality and scent of the fragrance is undeniably V&R. The unboxing experience was pleasurable and of course, very upscale. Inside, the bottle is a gorgeous, heavy bottle made of thick glass. The push pump spray works well and distributes a fine mist that has a wide broadcast. I haven’t had a single issue with the pump getting stuck, jammed or not working.

The fragrance is…well…exceptional!
While I do get the unmistakable ‘floral’ that V&R Flower Bombs are known and loved for, the tiger lily isn’t overwhelming or funeral home like at all! The floral notes are super fresh, bright and light, not heavy or overwhelming at all. They blend perfect with the fruits that come out in this. And speaking of fruit- I absolutely LOVE coconut, but I’ve had it go very wrong in a fragrance before. The coconut in this isn’t that artificial coconut at all and plays very well with the other notes. Its fresh and breezy, not heavy and harsh. The mango isn’t too sweet either and compliments the other notes beautifully.

I can definitely see why this is categorized as a solar, floral and fruity scent. It is quite warm and does read as tropical, but it really isn’t leaning too far in any one direction. It really is a beautiful balance of all the notes. It is quite complex and almost changes depending on my mood, the weather or even my outfit (I guess that falls into the category of ‘mood’ though). Even though this is an absolutely stunning and gorgeous scent that I LOVE wearing, I almost wish it was a bit more tropical to be honest, but i’m not complaining.

Besides the beautiful scent, the other amazing thing about this is the staying power. Man, this scent lasts a LONG time! Matter of fact, I ha an employee go into the office the other day when I wasn’t there and he has to text me because he, ‘Smelled my perfume but couldn’t find me’ in the office and wanted to know where I was. I had been gone out of there for over 36 hours at that point. This stays with the body just as well as it stays wherever you were.

I am SO SO glad I took a chance and picked this up. I feel it is quickly becoming my signature scent too. I will, without a doubt, purchase this again and again. Yes, it is pricey, but you aren’t just paying for a well known name- you are paying for exceptional quality!

I was so excited to get this scent. I’d heard lots of great reviews, and I know I love the original FlowerBomb, so I hoped this one would be a love as well. Is it ever! You absolutely need to get your nose on it asap. It is such a delightful, bright scent. It lasts for ages but doesn’t project very far. It’s very signature scent-worthy in that way. People won’t smell you as soon as you walk in the room. But they will when you’re close and talking to them, and they will think you smell amazing. The scent is, of course since it still is FlowerBomb, quite floral. But this one has added in a few things that aren’t in the OG one. You get some good beachy fruit with it – melon and mandarin and coconut. But none of them stand out or overshadow the others. The scent is really well blended and quite distinct. I absolutely love this perfume and if the notes sound up your alley, you should give it a shot because, wow.
