Flowerbomb Ed into happy

I have been looking for a happy, uplifting perfume lately. There are different recommendations for that, but as I have discovered, it’s often a very personal matter. Although, I am not quite sure. This weekend I went to Ulta to try some fragrances and see what appeals to me. After hoping that the ubiquitous Happy will do its job, I stumbled upon Flowerbomb Nectar. Flowerbomb itself failed to impress me of late, as it seems to have really soft projection on my skin. But lo and behold, I fell in love with its flanker completely out of the blue. Riding home in the car, I kept sniffing my wrist, never getting quite enough of this nectar of the gods that all of sudden descended upon me. It was so gentle, feminine, relaxing and alluring all at once. I was looking at the snow covered fields all around me all of a sudden recalling the sweet smell of the grassy wildflower meadows in the summer and that feeling of falling in love and dreaming of that special someone, that tingling sensation of happiness. Where have I been before?

Different enough

The ultimate fruitchouli perfume for me. I don’t get along with regular FB, the patchouli is still too loud for me in the drydown… but while searching for a perfume for my mom I decided to try this version. WOW. So much sweeter, the gunpowder accord gives a slightly metallic/earthy vibe, and the patchouli isn’t scratchy. Love. In the world of fruity patch frags, I love this best.

Woow Flow

Flowerbomb Nectar opens up in a way that is familiar to the original Flowerbomb, while also doing a bit of its own thing.

The osmanthus returns, just to a lesser extent, but is joined in its sweetness by a nice blackcurrant note and a very light bergamot. The latter is really only apparent briefly.

What you will notice that is different here, is the resinous benzoin note and the inclusion of gunpowder. To me, the gunpowder is slightly metallic, and only a bit smoky. It’s very much like the note found in the men’s fragrance, Luna Rossa Carbon.

I also get some of the orange blossom and patchouli early on, but neither of those ever feels to significant in the mix. The blackcurrant doesn’t appear to just be the berry itself, but also the cassis leaf, which gives a slight greenish aroma with the patchouli note.

As we get further along, it is still sweet, just less fruity and more of a syrupy quality. Vanilla and tonka bean are major players at this point. The blackcurrant is all but gone, but I do still get some of that osmanthus.

It’s a lot like the original Flowerbomb, just with amped up vanilla/tonka bean and the inclusion of that gunpowder. It doesn’t seem as bright and is colder, but the jasmine and osmanthus do sell the floral part of this fragrance like its predecessor.

That’s mostly what I get for the remaining of the wear.

Juicy and with more "Oomph"

Finally, a name that matches the scent. Its an explosion of flowers dripping with nectar and juice while fireworks go off in the background. This is fun and flirty in a not so innocent, sultry way. This is a heady floral fragrance with sweet fruity notes, a bit like candy, and hint of something metallic in the background. Its less of a flourmand than the original in the sense that the flowers and fruits are there, but separate. It doesn't feel edible. It could be due to the vanilla being toned down in this version. The fragrance does get a little generic in its wear but its still a good scent.

This fragrance has way more projection when compared to Dew and the Original. This fragrance creates a nice juicy scent bubble around you, people will notice. This fragrance lasts longer than the other two I've tested. I got about 5 hours of wear on skin and it will last longer on clothes. There are several sizes available starting at 10ml for $38, 50ml for $150, and 90ml for $185.

When the synapses go crazy

Ok what exactly tempts me to test an extremely sweet perfume, although I don't really like sweet? No question about it. In the course of my presence in a forum with scent madmen, it does not stay out that various neuronal circuits evaporate and want to form themselves again. Therefore in my very foggy mind I grabbed the test bottle and courageously sprayed it on.

The scent:
Starts sweet as usual, but in the background there is a slightly scratchy orange to sniff out, which wants to soften the seal puller a bit. Really tuts do not succeed, but further in the fragrance process.
Vanilla comes along and grabs all the synapses to fill them with vanilla. Now the sweet fragrance becomes even more vanilly sweet.
And in the so-called drydown comes the Tonka, which gives the sweetness a warm component.

Imagine, this scent plays with sweet scent components. First orangey fruity sweet, then candy sugar pink - (already to cardboard...) sweet, then creamy vanilla sweet, after 1h it becomes fruity currant tangy sweet, then finally in tonka bean sweet warm to end.
Unfortunately, this sweet pink adhesive veil floats constantly in the background. Probably the nectar. At least the honeybees will fly on this scent, or sweet noses.
I don't like him. Not because the scent would be boring. There's no way he is. The course is really exciting. Despite the red very dominant thread, many olfactory impressions, which are finely tuned.
I just don't like this sweet which makes birds stick to the trees and has to caramelise the water in the brook. I don't like it when I sit in the garden and a bee wants to pollinate me and desperately tries. Don't need my thing.

And he's really great at it. 9h+ and you can't smell it anyway. Dear ladies or extremely brave gentlemen. Please dose only in the evening and sparingly, otherwise the clouds will fall from the sky because of over-sugar.

Conclusion:
A very sweet fragrance with an iridescent sweet olfactory impression. Well made for sweet noses and sugar sweet creatures.
