Friends think it is real
Floral is everything Flowerbomb should be. The jasmine-orchid combination is lush and the patchouli base gives it depth. My friends think I am wearing the real thing.

For comparison, the official Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb note structure.
Opening accord of Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb, as composed by Viktor & Rolf.
The middle accord that carries the wearer through the day.
The dry-down. Floral follows the same architecture at 22–30% oil concentration vs 15-20% (EDP).
More oil, more scent. Longer wear, stronger projection. Floral sits at the upper end of EDP-grade, overlapping with Extrait.
Designer Eau de Toilette typically contains 5–12% fragrance oil. Designer Eau de Parfum contains 15–20%. Extrait sits at 20–30%. Floral is formulated at 22 to 30 percent oil concentration, the upper end of the EDP range, overlapping with Extrait. Higher oil concentration means longer wear, stronger projection, and a fuller scent profile. Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb at 15-20% (EDP) is more dilute than Floral.
Floral is developed by perfumers who have composed scents for houses you already own. Same training. Same suppliers in Grasse, France. Same note structure as the £135 original, at 22–30% oil concentration (EDP grade). We cut the theatre, not the oil.

"We cut the celebrity endorsement, the department store concession, and the brand licence. The difference goes back into the formula."
Katie Johnson, Founder · The Fragrance WorldDesigner brands charge £300 or more for a 100ml bottle. The perfume itself costs three to five pounds to make. The rest is theatre: a campaign, a celebrity, a licensing fee, a retail margin, a bottle heavy enough to feel expensive in the hand.
It is simply how the industry has worked for forty years. What has changed is the assumption that you, the buyer, don’t know.
We started The Fragrance World in Liverpool to make one without the designer tax. One bottle. Thirty pounds. No apology, no compromise.

I rotate between Floral and the original. Honestly, the TFW version lasts longer on my skin. That is not an exaggeration. The oil concentration really does make a difference.
Bought the 5ml to test. Within a day I ordered the 50ml. The floral bouquet is accurate and the longevity is impressive. Cannot believe the price difference.
A 5ml atomiser. Enough for a full week of wear so you can decide on skin, not from a description. Worst case: out £4.95 and a week.
