Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid

i have the mini dabber; sweet rich licorice along with og flowerbomb dna is what i get

Selling my bottle. Few sprays missing. UK shipping only.

Hmm this is interesting! When i first spray it it’s a burst of flowery sweetness and something that’s green, tingly/slightly “peppery/spicy” and menthol-esque - the vine? It’s weird. The initial spray reminds me of Miss Dior Essence a bit.

The opening wasn't quite what I'd imagined: it smelled much more like vine. On my skin, I detected a lot of the vine's fizzing, slightly nuanced by the sweetness of peach. Then, I could barely smell the heart! It was as if a very light touch of floral sugar had been added to my wrist, and that was it. The fragrance became really subtle from then on, which is why I didn't particularly love it. But I understand the people who do: it's soft, cozy, and spring-like. I guess I'm just not the right person for it.

I blind bought a travel size of this recently, and I like it. Like others have said, I am also not really getting much of the peach note. It is kind of hard to describe the smell, but it definitely has that OG flowerbomb profile to it. It is pretty sweet smelling, but not overly sweet. I like it better than the OG! It is one that really could be worn anytime. Overall I like it. I have other perfumes that are similar that I like better though, so I am not sure I would buy a big bottle.

This is sweet, like eating a spoonful of white sugar sweet... But idk I really love it. It's smooth. I don't detect a peach note really at all. I have a 5 ml but I would buy a full size. It for sure has a family resemblance to the OG. I do agree with previous comments that it has a licorice vibe but I think it's charming like in Lolita Lempicka or Mon Guerlain.

my favorite from flowerbomb collection. It flowery and just right amount of vanilla for someone who doesn't like to havy vanilla scents.

I got a sample of this for free a while ago along with a purchase I made. I finished the sample and I honestly really loved it. There was something so seductive and alluring about this and it’s so fresh and feminine. I love that it radiates an aura instead of smelling like “perfume” (looking at you og flowerbomb…) I’m not sure if it smells like any of the notes listed here to me. I get something very comforting that’s both florally and with a hint of cinnamon? I wore this to work and a guy came in and said it smells like a hair salon in here. (Don’t know what that means but thanks ig? LOL) I also think this scent smells expensive and is great for everyday any occasion, making it very signature worthy. Anyways, I think I might need to get me a bottle of this or of tiger lily, they’re both really good.

Nice springtime scent. Lasts 8+ hours. I get more orchid than vanilla or peach. The vanilla and peach seem to just add sweetness to it rather than playing a larger role to my nose. Original DNA is still in the one. A good amount of patchouli. Not my fav Flowerbomb flanker but not the worst. 6/10 for me.

This is an interesting fragrance for me. I get a lot of the milky licorice scent which eventually settles into a fairly generic light floral scent. I have to reapply after about three hours. I don't dislike it, but it definitely is more of a casual perfume for me.

I wish it was juicer, stronger projection and more potent sillage - then it would be amazing. It is my favourite of the Flowerbomb flankers, but that isn't saying much because overall I am not impressed with the DNA of this line (which feels mediocre, somewhat dated and over-hyped for the current times). I am a big fan of orchid notes, so that's probably why this one made the top of my Flowerbomb list, but once you've expanded your nose horizons you may realize this one isn't life-changing.

Smells purely like black licorice to my nose. I was surprised it was not on the list of notes. Black licorice being the only food I’ve experienced that I am completely repulsed by, this was a strong dislike for me.

This is a bomb of sweetness overload. I don’t smell a crazy difference from the original Flowerbomb if I’m being honest. They both are a bit nauseating because of the amount of sweetness. That being said, I don’t think it's terrible - just not for me. I do think this is a beast of a performer, though!

this smells like the inside of club libby lu. iykyk

This is my favorite Flowerbomb flanker. It smells absolutely delicious, so juicy and fruity but not juvenile at all. I also get a slight berry vibe, even though it’s not listed in the notes. If you’re looking for an easy everyday perfume that works in pretty much any setting or season, I definitely recommend this one. It’s super versatile. I’ll always keep it in my collection.

The slightly sexier, slightly more mature sister of the Flowerbomb range. This is the Flowerbomb I opt to wear in the evening or if I want to make more of an impression

I can’t be the only one getting distinct red licorice / cherry twizzlers candy in the beginning?! Eventually the cherry licorice candy favor fades and it starts to remind me of OG Flowerbomb. Floral, powdery, sweet, laconic, vanilla.

Better than the OG- but still ew. I love sweet fragrances but I dislike the flowerbomb sisters.

nom nom nom would eat it I love orchids

Sweet, vanilla, powdery, floral, fruity, green, feminine, romantic, sensual, seductive, classy, elegant, chic, flirty, playful charming, whimsical, radiant, luminous, alluring On me this opens sweet and fruity with juicy peach and green vine. The Flowerbomb Dan is still there, but in a much softer way. The sweet peach stays intertwined while the delicate and powdery vanilla orchid comes. It grows slightly warmer once it’s dried down, but otherwise it remains this beautiful powdery vanilla with sweet peach swirled throughout. I usually prefer really sweet gourmand fragrances, but this is one of my favorites that are in the more floral categories. I do tend to like the Flowerbomb fragrances, and own a few others including the OG, Nectar, Tiger Lily, and Extreme. Ruby Orchid is my favorite followed by Extreme and Tiger Lily. This is probably the sweetest flanker, as well as the most gourmand leaning followed by the newer Extreme version. Even if you don’t like the other Flowerbomb scents, I still highly recommend trying this one because it’s got the softest Flowerbomb dna. I don’t see any patchouli listed in the notes, but there seems like there could be a hint of it in the base. I think it’s a pretty safe blind buy for those who like vanillas and/or fruity florals, as well as gourmand lovers. To me this feels effortlessly feminine, and like it could easily suit women of all ages. I tend to prefer this during the spring and summer, summer, and fall, but really it’s suitable for the entire year. This also works really well for basically all occasions from casual to fancy, and including work and/or school. I get great performance with Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid. The longevity is very good, it lasts 8+ hours on my skin. The projection is really good too, it radiates out at least a few feet from me. For reference, some of my other favorite vanillas include Kayali Yum Boujee Marshmallow, The Wedding Silk Santal, Vanilla 28, Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar, PDM Oriana, Kilian LDBS, Princess, Celeste, Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid, Burberry Goddess, The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods, YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Black Opium Glitter, Guerlain, Mon Guerlain, JPG Classique, Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallows, SDJ Summer é Amor, SDJ 62, SDJ 39, VS Vanilla Lace, B&BW Fireside Flurries, Boardwalk Marshmallow Clouds, Beach Nights, Whipped Honey & Vanilla

SYRUPY YUMMY DELECTABLE SEXY FLORAL. I want to eat it. Not powdery at all. I don't wear it anymore, but I wore it all the time during my freshman year of college and everyone always told me I smell good. Great for younger people :)

Finally, a Flowerbomb I can wear that isn't discontinued! (RIP La Vie En Rose flankers) I love sweet scents, and the original Flowerbomb is aptly named - an extremely cloying bouquet that made me nauseous. Ruby Orchid, however, is a restrained gem. I don't really detect peach, but I do get a massive blast of fleshy orchid petals melded with an incredibly realistic vanilla that slowly settles into a powdery cloud of happiness. I can understand why this wouldn't suit everyones tastes, but to me it's damn near perfect! EDIT: I'm not sure if anyone else has the same experience, but this perfume acts very strangely on me. The initial blast is medium strength, it slowly settles but when it becomes a skin scent, there are moments of noticeability. Almost like it flutters between the middle and final stages. Quite odd, but I love it!

As a Viktor Rolf perfume lover, I had very high hopes for Ruby Orchid. I loved the original Flowerbomb. It’s still one of my favorite fragrances to wear till this day. Unfortunately, Miss Ruby Orchid very much indeed disappointed me. It’s floral and fruity and that’s pretty much it. It’s a very basic composition that I find to be rather boring. It’s slightly peachy and vanilla but nothing special. It smells like a thousand other fragrances. It has decent longevity and projection but doesn’t hold a candle to its predecessor. It’s gonna be a hard pass on this bottle of juice. There are way better scents to choose from out there.

This is one of the Best maybe the Best Flowerbomb for me. Every time I wear it i got so many complements and thats the point 😃💕

I bought a sample of this in Jan, loved the sample so I ordered a 10ml decant, until I didn’t. When I first sampled this and sprayed it, I really did love it, it smelt exactly like the Lipton peach iced tea drink, I just found it really beautiful, I liked the dry down, it had settled really nicely on me, forwarding on to when I bought the decant I bought it sprayed it maybe 5 times and then left it in storage, went back to it a few weeks later, and where has my beautiful peach iced tea gone? I sprayed it onto my clothes I then tried it on my skin and it now has this unpleasant muskiness to it that I can’t escape, it was at that point I made sure to always wait until some time has passed when I buy 1-2ml samples to make sure they don’t change into something i don’t like, I’m not sure if what I’m smelling is the flowerbomb dna that has decided to present itself strongly, this is the only flanker I have smelt of this line, but yeah not sure what has happened I’m just going to hope it somehow returns back to its former iced tea glory, perhaps I’ll monitor how it smells in different climates.

AHH IT’S SO BORING!!

Delicious! Sweet, slightly syrupy but dries down a little powdery. Absolutely love this.

Sweet at first, but after a few hours dried down to a sweet medicinal skin scent on me. Did not mix well with my body chemistry.

love the peach in this one~ i'll have to compare it to flowerbomb nectar! this one feels very fruity, a bit more bright, while smelling rich and clean!

A beautiful sweet, creamy peach with vanilla. Fun and feminine and sweet. Love it for every day.
