Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision

ViktorRolf-Spicebomb-Night-Vision-Visual.jpg

Fashion house Viktor & Rolf, which specialises in creating conceptual and avant-garde designs, was founded in 1993 by Dutch designers Viktor Horsting (born 1969, Geldrop) and Rolf Snoeren (born 1969, Dongen). For more than twenty years Viktor & Rolf have sought to challenge preconceptions of fashion, and bridge the divide between fashion and art. Viktor & Rolf have designed both haute couture ad ready-to-wear collections. The duo is renowned for their avant-garde designs, which rely heavily on theatrical and performative fashion runways. After their graduation in at the famous Arnhem Academy of Art and Design, the pair began working together and relocated to Paris.

Initial collections established the extravagant silhouettes, witty use of materials and irreverent concepts the designers would come to be known for. In 2000, Viktor & Rolf launched their company logo of a wax seal bearing the monogram V&R, and began to devote their artistic talent to ready-to-wear collections. In 2003, the designers launched a Menswear collection which co-existed alongside the women’s line until 2009. In 2015, the designers halted the ready-to-wear production and returned once more to haute couture citing that they wanted to ‘explore the limits of wearability, function and form’. Additionally, like evey respected couture house Viktor & Rolf created some beautiful perfumes: like the female fragrance Flowerbomb (2004) and the male fragrance Antidote (2006), and Spicebomb (launched in 2012), and their flankers.

This month, a new version of the iconic masculine scent from Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb (launched is 2012) will be launched. Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision is the first flanker since the Spicebomb Extreme edition from 2015.

Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision is all about a classic and elegant aroma, long-lasting and truly seductive. Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision is an explosive contrast of green freshness and dark spices. It’s a very sensual fragrance, powerful and alluring, it is designed for night time. Darkness and mystery are new themes that are introduced to the line of this flanker.

Fusing a host of fresh scents, Viktor & Rolf is set to launch Spicebomb Eau Fraîche, a summer version of its ‘Spicebomb’ fragrance.

Following a vèry strong Autumn/Winter 14 ready-to-wear edit by a simple V-neck sweater, Viktor & Rolf is set to launch a new fragrance entitled Spicebomb Eau Fraîche in April.

We were first introduced to Spicebomb in 2012, before it fast became a modern classic. And the newest addition is a summer version of the original scent. Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb Eau Fraîche fuses scents of pink pepper, grapefruit zest, sea salt, lavender, tobacco and amber…  How manly!

 

 

 

 

Bombs and grenades! Spicebomb van Viktor&Rolf

Dutch fashion designers Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren moved to Paris in 1993 to start a long career in the Couture collections. The first perfume of Viktor & Rolf, Flowerbomb was launched in 2005 and coincided with the spring of that year.

Now the fashion house is going to make a great new man scent! After the success of the explosive female flower perfume Flowerbomb, now its turn to the men. Another exciting rich scent, in a more than amazing bottle of Spicebomb, a hand grenade, will be launched this weekend with The Bijenkorf in Amsterdam.

Created by Olivier Polge, Spicebomb is a mix of fiery & male fries like chili pepper, saffron, leather, tobacco and vetiver. Strikingly, after the explosive opening, you also smell fresh nuts such as bergamot, grapefruit, elemi and pink pepper. I am very curious!
