There are many famous groups with an ampersand in their name: Simon & Garfunkel, Hall & Oates... uh, Drew & Napier. But none quite as renowned as Viktor&Rolf. (They, of the surrealistic dresses at the SS23 Haute Couture Collection.) Synonymous with avant-garde fashion and bold scents, Viktor&Rolf adds another scent to its SPICEBOMB collection: the SPICEBOMB DARK LEATHER.
Since its debut in 2012, SPICEBOMB has been a Viktor&Rolf’s signature; a scent that displays the impact of masculinity (thus the grenade). This fragrance was to befit the look of the bottle: bold, daring, and unforgettable.
What you have with the SPICEBOMB DARK LEATHER is an interplay of opposites. The grenade-shaped bottle is coated in a matte black lacquer with a black leather-textured logo wrap and the fragrance is a dark, smokey and complex. “Fragrance is so personal and can bring out different elements of one’s personality,” Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren explain. “SPICEBOMB DARK LEATHER is all about exploration and bringing out your most sensual self.”
Created by master perfumers Jean-Christophe Hérault and Carlos Benaim, SPICEBOMB DARK LEATHER opens with the SPICEBOMB's signature black pepper coupled with the zest of bergamot and grapefruit. The citrus and spice then give way to a heart of pimento berries, nutmeg, and cinnamon, layered with the herbal sweetness of lavandin. Finally, we end with a smoky tobacco and soft woods. It’s a scent designed to linger, defying easy definition while exuding magnetism.
SPICEBOMB DARK LEATHER is available in 50ml and 90ml sizes at leading department stores
