Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision Eau de Toilette, launched in 2019, is an aromatic fragrance that encapsulates the essence of the night in a bottle, marking a bold, contemporary twist on the original Spicebomb fragrance. Conceived by perfumers Nathalie Lorson and Pierre Negrin, this scent is designed for the modern man who seeks to captivate and intrigue.
The composition of Spicebomb Night Vision is a complex blend of freshness and spicy warmth, making it a versatile choice for evening wear. Initially, the fragrance opens with a vivid burst of green cardamom and mandarin, combined with grapefruit and a hint of apple, offering a fresh and slightly fruity introduction. The heart then transitions into a more aromatic territory, with sage, geranium, and lavender, creating a herbal and floral core that is both sophisticated and robust.
As the scent unfolds, the base notes reveal a deeply masculine and sensual finish. The warmth of tonka bean, almond, and woody notes provides a smooth and comforting end, while the spicy elements of clove and nutmeg add depth and intensity. Patchouli and vetiver give the fragrance a rich, earthy grounding, completing the olfactory experience with a lingering presence.
The design of the bottle retains the hand grenade shape characteristic of the Spicebomb range, symbolizing the explosive and powerful nature of the fragrance within. However, for Night Vision, the bottle is rendered in a deep, emerald green, evoking the mysterious allure of the night.
Spicebomb Night Vision EDT is a testament to Viktor & Rolf's ability to blend traditional elements with innovative twists, creating a fragrance that is both familiar and unexpected. Its balance of fresh, spicy, and woody notes makes it a compelling choice for men who desire a fragrance that reflects their complex and enigmatic nature.
