  Flowerbomb Midnight by Victor and Rolf: its translation is Midnight Floral Bomb. I tried it with expectation due to its predecessor and was fascinated: it’s exquisite, cheerful, sophisticated, and elegant, without being cloying. Compared to the original, it lacks patchouli, resulting in a softer and sweeter scent. Launched in 2019, its opening is sparkling with blackcurrant and pomegranate, followed by jasmine and peony. It reminds me of the romantic aroma of my city’s gardens at night. The dry-down is delicious with vanilla and white musk that lingers; I detect woody tones that add a fabulous dimension, almost like a light, sweet incense. Charming! I wear it in spring and summer for romantic outings or dinners. Moderate trail, lasting about six hours. The woody musk rounds everything off, elevating the fruitiness to be feminine and mysterious. I loved it.

  A beautiful scent that brings to mind the streets of my hometown and its night gardens. It reminds me of Narciso Rodríguez’s For Her EDT Black, though that one wins on trail and longevity. Flowerbomb is weak at first: it comes out strong, like a bomb, but after two hours the trail disappears, and in under four hours there’s no trace left, not even on the skin. Unthinkable that it lasts nothing at that price.

  Elegant and romantic. Midnight opens with a burst of peony and sweet blackcurrant before yielding to moss. On my skin, the transition is swift: the flowers fade until only the musky base remains. Soft and charming, it’s less heavy than the name suggests, yet subtle and captivating. Very different from the original Flowerbomb. 6.5/10

  I love it! I’m in love with this perfume. I discovered it just before Christmas and it was my gift. My pH is quite rare, but this perfume is perfect. On my skin, it smells practically the same from start to finish, which is something I personally like. It has a ‘but’ for me: I love it, yes, at first it comes out like a bomb, literally, but it soon softens and I would like that potency to last longer, although it might seem heavy to others. The ‘but’ is the sillage, its weakest point, especially for its price. I have the feeling it has very little, but the longevity is incredible. After almost 24 hours I still perceive it close to the skin and sometimes it comes from the scent behind my ears (I sprayed it behind each one and another on a wrist rubbing the other, I know it’s not done, but I can’t help it). So, even if it’s close to the skin, on me I can say it has very good longevity.

  I received a sample yesterday and I’m still testing it. It gives me the feeling of having smelled something similar, but I don’t know what. Sometimes I think of Tresor la Nuit or Tresor Midnight Rose; other times of Amor Amor Mon Parfum du soir in a fresher version. I also wonder if it doesn’t recall the original Flowerbomb a bit, which would make sense, but it definitely doesn’t resemble the family founder much. It strikes me that it doesn’t declare patchouli (if it did, it would be in its earthy and citrus facet, not balsamic or sweet), so I think the earthiness I perceive is an effect of the vanilla and musk, although I do note a certain sweet, fresh darkness of the blackcurrants at the start. I like it very much; I, who am not a big fan of gourmands, would wear it. I’ve worn it for an hour. The intensity is medium. Now I notice the musky base more and it brings me memories of the silkiness of Narciso Rodríguez. The blackcurrants are no longer felt so much. Two hours later, I went to hang my clothes with the perfume on my arm and moving it I could feel it without getting close, but not very obviously (like an Orchid Soleil that slaps you in the face), but rather like an ethereal, elegant and beautiful aura. Now it reminds me of the dry down of Jimmy Choo, but more vanilla-based. It’s a warm morning, not scorching nor cold. I’m starting to understand the other reviews: for the price, it doesn’t seem to have good longevity (although smelling it up close after several sprays makes it hard to feel, it seems to saturate quickly, which can be misleading). It is there and you can feel it, but it doesn’t have great projection. You can definitely tell the ingredients are of quality and the scent is good, but the price makes you think twice. I put it on at 7 am and at 4 pm it’s only felt close to the skin, but it’s there, fully distinguishable. What happens is that if you inhale several times in a row, you stop feeling it, but it’s there. Next day: I tested it again on my wrist. What a delight this vanilla that lingers on the skin! Luminous, slightly fruity, with the texture of musk. It has me hooked! I confirm that on my skin, the longevity is very good, 7-8 hours projecting, a bit more close to the skin, 3-4 hours more.

  I received a sample yesterday and am still testing it. It brings the sensation of having smelled something similar, but I don’t know what: sometimes I think of Tresor la Nuit or Tresor Midnight Rose, other times of Amor Amor Mon Parfum du soir, but in a fresher version. It also reminds me a bit of the original Flowerbomb, which makes sense, but it doesn’t resemble it much. What strikes me is that it doesn’t declare patchouli, so the earthiness I perceive must be vanilla plus musk, although I do note a certain sweet darkness from the blackcurrants at the start. I like it very much; even though I’m not a fan of gourmands, I would wear it. After an hour, the intensity is moderate. Now I notice the musky base more, and it brings to mind the silkiness of Narciso Rodríguez; the blackcurrants are less prominent. Two hours later, I went out to hang laundry with the perfume on my arm and could smell it when moving it without leaning in, but not aggressively, rather like an ethereal and elegant aura. It reminds me of the dry-down of Jimmy Choo but more vanillic. It’s a warm morning, not scorching. I’m beginning to understand the other reviews: for the price, the longevity doesn’t seem good (when smelled up close it’s hard to detect it, rapid olfactory saturation that can be deceptive). It has low projection, but the ingredients are of quality and the scent is very good. I put it on at 7 am and by 4 pm it’s only felt close to the skin, but it’s there and distinguishable. If you inhale several times in succession, you stop smelling it, but it’s still there. The next day, on the wrist: what a delight that vanilla! Luminous, slightly fruity, with a musky texture. I confirm good longevity: 7-8 hours projecting, a little more close to the skin.

  Nice perfume, not as potent as it appears from its black casing; in fact, it stays quite soft, but it’s very long-lasting on my skin. The blackcurrants and jasmine are perceived in a delicious way. The day I buy a Flowerbomb, it will be this one without a doubt.

  I bought it blind because it was on offer during Black Friday; I love the original Flowerbomb and I deserved it for my hard work. I have no regrets, it arrived today and I love it. At first, I noticed the blackcurrants, soft, fruity and delicious. It’s one of those perfumes that makes you stop and think. I liked it very much, not so much to replace my favourite, but it’s a quality contender. It’s delicate and sophisticated. I love it and the packaging too. Beautiful.

  There is one characteristic nobody mentions: it smells vintage. Although it’s fruity, that vintage touch stands out above everything. It was a blind buy after reading many reviews and watching videos, but no one mentioned this. If I had known, I wouldn’t have bought it.

  I think this is the Flowerbomb flanker I’ve liked the most. Despite its name, it’s perfect for the day and for spring-summer. Unlike the original, it’s not strident or explosive, but rather discreet and coquettish, especially in its dry down which is a warm, subtle vanilla. At first, you feel the fruits, but I notice something spicy and floral in the base. It’s a charming and feminine blend that, like all Flowerbomb, oozes elegance. The longevity is moderate, about 6 hours with the last traces fading, and the sillage is soft to medium; I think you have to get close to notice it. I’ll try wearing more on clothes. Edit: I sprayed it on a light jacket and four days later, the scent is still perceptible.

  I think this is the Flowerbomb flanker I’ve liked the most so far. Midnight, despite its name, is perfect for the day and for spring-summer. Unlike the original, it’s not so strident or explosive, but rather more discreet and coquettish, especially in its dry-down with warm and subtle vanilla. On first impression you feel the fruits, but I notice something slightly spiced and floral in the base. It’s a charming and feminine blend that, like all Flowerbomb, oozes finesse and is worth it. Medium longevity, about six hours with the last note close to the skin, and a soft to medium trail; I think you have to get close to notice it. I’ll try it more on clothes. Edit: I sprayed it on a light jacket and four days have passed and the scent is still perceptible.

  I bought it blind knowing Flowerbomb EDP and Ruby Orchid, and I have no regrets. I feel it’s a more modern version and I prefer it, as it lacks patchouli and has that blackcurrant fruity opening (it reminds me of Armani Si at the start, although they aren’t similar). It’s a sweet floral with a fruity opening. It retains the DNA of the original, although it’s not as potent. My favourite remains Ruby Orchid (more vanilla-based, for spring/summer), but I love this one: hyper-feminine, feels expensive and versatile. It has moderate projection and lasts 6 hours on my skin (the last traces fading) and then lingers softly musky for a few more hours. I wish the sillage were better for the price. I don’t think it’s for under 25s; it’s a straightforward floral, far from gourmand trends. It’s difficult to find in Argentina, I hope it hasn’t been discontinued. I wouldn’t buy the original EDP again, but the Midnight version, yes.

  Delicate, refined, sophisticated, sensual, and mysterious, very nocturnal. Addictive! Super worth it. As the bottle indicates, I would wear it on well-dressed nights, it could be rock-chic or formal, but always femme fatale.

  Delicate, refined, sophisticated, sensual and very nocturnal. Addictive! Worth every penny. As the bottle says, I would wear it on well-dressed nights, whether with a rocker style or for a gala, always with that femme fatale touch.

  It was on my radar due to the notes, but since it wasn’t available in Argentina, I hesitated to buy it blind. Fortunately, I found a decant before taking the risk. The scent is lovely but nothing new; I thought the pomegranate and night jasmine would create magic, but instead, it’s sweet, musky blackcurrants with a soft floral base. It gave me the feeling of having smelled it a thousand times and it bears a striking resemblance to Mon Paris. The longevity was very short; there was no trace after three hours and the sillage was almost non-existent. To be honest, it’s not worth it.

  I’m just here to confirm that, although I own Mon Paris, this smells completely different and I can’t find any resemblance between them.
