The review
Blooming scores 6.7 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Flowerbomb.
AromaPassions sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Flowerbomb's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as a parfum — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
At $69 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Flowerbomb — the 15th cheapest of 22 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength AromaPassions publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb is tea, bergamot and osmanthus at first, jasmine, orange blossom and freesia at its heart and patchouli, musk and vanilla at the end. AromaPassions set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- tea
- bergamot
- osmanthus
Heart
- jasmine
- orange blossom
- freesia
Base
- patchouli
- musk
- vanilla
An avalanche of jasmine and caramel over patchouli, huge and utterly addictive.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
