Spicebomb Infrared

While I do love it, its too close to the OG. Which is a modern masterpiece. The "red fruits" are not prominent enough. They are actually non existent imo. If you have the OG, I see no need for this, or infrared edp, or metallic musk. They are too similar to the OG. You can get a 5oz of the OG for less than a 3oz of this. Honestly, khaltat knight is what this should smell like. Khaltat knight is super similar to the OG spicebomb, but the cherry note is prominent af in the opening, and remains noticeable in the drydown.

I'm in the minority here. I just recently fell in love with the entire Spicebomb line and Infrared EDT was the first one I tried. Most people say this is a winter/Christmas scent. I don't get that. At all. On my it smells like a more expensive Joop. Fruit and more fruit. For me, this is a Spring/Summer frag. Dry down gets a little more cinnamon so I can see why people think Christmas with this one but for me? Nah. That said, I love it. Now that it's discontinued I ordered the EDT and EDP before they're all gone. Does not project worth a darn that I can tell. Which makes it perfect for office. No one will complain over it lol. It does last a good 6-8 hours. All of this review is just for the EDT version. Love it. Not sure why they discontinued it but I'm glad I discovered it in time.

So, I had the opportunity to choose between this and the EDP, I had the chance to get the EDT way back in '23 and I cannot for the life of me remember why I didn't pick it up xD I tried it again this year, the EDP is severely lacking something that the EDT has, that "𝘫𝘦 𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘴 𝘲𝘶𝘰𝘪", could it be that red fruit, almost gourmand sweetness? I have no idea, but the EDP isn't as good. I also tried Metallic Musk and Dark Leather, none of which were any good or better than OG Spicebomb EDT or even Extreme. To me this is an improvement on the OG DNA with some added sweetness and depth just like Extreme is, just a different, more playful twist. I'm giving this one a 8.5/10 because I am a giant sucker for red berry notes.

This fragrance got me into perfumery. I smelt it once, and I fell in love. A festive, fruity fragrance, anchored with cinnamon spice and tobacco. Unique, rich, and quite fresh. Though, the spiciness can be way too heavy for some places and weather conditions. (it's called spiceBOMB for a reason) Unfortunately, it only lasts around an hour on my skin (not sure if i'm noseblind by then) and it can come off as quite offensive. Worth a try for those who like juvenile, spicy, fruity amber fragrances.

Guys this shit got really good Fake, if your granade pin looks awkward - it's Fake. I got this but happily got my money back. And bottle, box were super good quality, I have og Spicebomb and extreme, and even inside atomizer is like original. Be careful.

this fragrance smells like raw chilis and I don't even know why people love this garbage.

When going to the V&R's website it says it's discontinued

The fruity amber notes smell so generic and cheap to my nose.

This is the worst thing I have ever smelled.

This stuff is freaking good and used to be my signature during cold weather. I don’t care what no one says this is amazing and got me so many compliments I want another bottle so bad. I’m glad this isn’t super hyped up because this is one of them ones

Spicebomb Infrared is, as the name suggests, a very spice-forward fragrance. I blind bought it mainly because of the unique bottle, but honestly I didn’t expect such a strong red pepper vibe, which left me slightly disappointed and not something I personally enjoyed much. That said, it does have a distinctive character and can stand out in colder weather. Fans of warm, spicy fragrances may still enjoy it.

This is my absolute favorite men's cologne that my husband wears! I LOVE a warm, spicy cinnamon. Ultra sexy!!! To say it's a turn on is a huge understatement. I do wish longevity and sillage were a little better. This is perfect for fall and winter!

I picked up a few samples of this out of curiosity (sometimes I like wearing comforting men's/unisex scents at bedtime). This is absolutely gorgeous. Complex, smooth, and cinnamon-forward, done well. I get cinnamon stick and not red hot candy. I might layer this with some of my "Cinnabomb" by Be Layered if I want to add a sparkling red hot cinnamon note. Yum.

A very nice flanker to the very popular Spicebomb dna and I absolutely love this one. Retains the Spicebomb dna : spicy, warm, sweet but with an extra dose op spiciness and red fruits. Makes it more enjoyable than the OG.

a cheerful cozy scent with some notes like cherry, raspberry, cinnamon, tobacco. a bit more on the casual side but you can still wear it in formal occasions. traded my boss bottled elixir with this and i definitely prefer this one

Love it! Red berries play enough sweetness up top with the cinnamon spice that punches. It's a great fragrance with plenty of performance, I like to respray anyway but it will last quite a while. Tied with the EDP as the best in the line to me.

THIS IS FABULOUS. Around 2021 or so, I was accompanying a friend to a funeral for moral support and stopped along the way there to pick up one of her friends. When he got into the car I was immediately struck by his scent. Beautiful, somewhat peppery but also fresh at the same time. It was incredibly intoxicating. I don’t even remember saying “hello!” to him— immediately I asked what he was wearing. He conveniently had the bottle with him, saying that it belonged to the fellow who had just passed and was wearing it in his memory. I have since wondered for years which spicebomb he wore, and just recently messaged to ask him. I plan on getting my son a bottle when I can. It’s the most intriguing scent I’ve ever smelled on a man!

Man I love this stuff! The EDT is great too and not redundant to me if you are into this profile. Oliver P. Did the OG I think and these flankers are heavily inspired by that. This adds a perfect twist of spice and cinnamon heat that I love. This one is more mature and little longer lasting than EDT. It's a bit spicier too. The EDT has some sweet freshness to it as well. You can go nose blind to this so don't think it's not pushing hard and spray on 10 extra. Let it do its magic and your nose will circle back picking it up again. Winter time, holidays, dates, evenings that are snowy and frozen, days that are brutally cold, even rainy cool days this thing is great and comforting. At night, it is soothing to smell as well to relax. Wonderful stuff, Pick it up bc it's discontinued or will be according to V and R site.

Ah... That Christmas smell!!!

This is Christmas in a bottle. Almost smells like red wine with cinnamon and goodness! My fav spicebomb! Tobacco, wine, berries, cinnamon… yeah, this is fire

Just tried a decant of this. It's one of the watmest perfumes I've ever tried. Warm, rich and sweet from fruits and spices with a bit of tobacco and benzoin forms a beautiful harmony. The combination of the notes makes it perfect for autumn and winter.

This is Christmas in a bottle,gonna rock this bad boy this month.Spicy but not overwhelming,fruity and nicely balanced.Performance below average but the scent is amazing!

Wore this today, I have had it for years. I fell in love with it again. The peppery resinous slight sweetness is what I love. I do not personally think it smells like cinnamon gum, but I get the comparison. I think this fits quite nicely in the Spicebomb line and does not disappoint in that aspect. I tried the EDP in Sephora and liked that as well.

At the first spray, it does smell quite peppery, almost food like. However, if you allow it to dry and age you’re going to experience all of that delicious black pepper mingling with cinnamon and spices and just the right amount of sweetness to make you smile. A personal favorite of mine!

This one is for the real cassia cinnamon lovers. The peppers, they can be a bit sharp, spice things really up. Like the real spicey red cinnamon chewing gum. The dry saffron and the tobacco smoothen things up. The original is more balanced, fresher and easier to wear because of the citrus opening and vanilla. But nevertheless, I really like this bomb of spices that for me is more suitable for evenings. The performance is not super long. But for a night out, this one works for 6 to 8 hours.

i remember sampling this a year ago and being completely repulsed by it. putting that much spice into one cologne is absolutely unnecessary. it straight up smelled like body odor which really defeats the purpose of a fragrance in my opinion

I really like this fragrance and how different it smells but I don't find myself reaching for it often. It is spicy like tobacco and cinnamon and a little musty but still has a bright streak. Projection is good and it lasts quite a while but if you do like it grab it now as according to the V&R web site it is now discontinued.

I've tried many fragrances from big designers like Sauvage Elixir and EDP, JPG Ultramale and Elixir, SWY Absolutely and Intensely, Versace Eros and Flame, BDC EDP, etc. I kept hearing about Spicebomb Extreme and it's a beautiful blend of spicy and sweet and then I tried Spicebomb Infrared EDT and it was love at first sniff. I ended up trying the EDP because everyone kept saying how much better it is and essentially its the EDT with a dark leather note where the darker notes are more prominent. The EDT the brighter notes are more prominent but they're warm and seductive and sexy as hell. The closest I can relate this to is Kamrah Qhawa and SWY Intensely and it's still not the same. This has a strong cinnamon and tobacco that definitely reminds me of big red gum and red hots candies but mixed with a smooth vanilla and red berries. To me it's the most beautiful cinnamon smell I've ever smelled and I've smelled many. If you don't like cinnamon then it's not for you. If you do, I don't think it gets better than this. I've gotten compliments everytime I've worn this and it projects like crazy and lasts a good while. This one gets so much hate and I'm guessing because it's in ur face and not everyone likes the spicy cinnamon smell but to me its addictive and amazing. I would not change a thing about it and it's better than the EDP unless you don't like the spicy smell and you want some leather in it. It's a 10/10 fragrance in my book.

Picked this up on a discounter. Been meaning to get for a while, prefer to EDP as a little sweeter and cinnamon more prominent which I wanted. Love it.

Had a sample of this one, very spicy, with that touch of sweetness. I loved this for the first 15-20 minutes and it smelled great but my issue was it was so spicy I actually found it burning my nose after an hour or so of wearing. I definitely see the big red gum comparison, I enjoy that scent so wasn’t an issue for me personally. It just needed something to balance and dial back the overly spicy and it would have been rated higher. 7/10
