I have always loved Dossier. But this time with the new cheaper box, cheap, wrinkled not straight labels, cheap sample spray holder with sticker that never stays on and the orange label and box are not doing it for me. One of the 2 I purchased was a gift and I cannot give it to her with a crooked, bubbling label. The presentation used to be medicinal, clean and classy. Now it has cheapened and is thrown together to save a few bucks. The new label and packaging since the last time I bought is ugly.

So Ive sniffed the V&R original version of this scent before via a tester bottle, but I do not have any experience with the original version skin chemistry/long ware wise. From a simple initial sniff they are very similar, Id say this one is a bit more sweet and the V&R one is more floral/petally? I love this scent, it has some warmth to it from the vanilla and caramel despite it being floral - the sweetness it melts down to with my skin chemistry is wonderful, not candy sweet but more berry-meets sexy musk florist. The raspberry despite being a top note lasts a very long time and is one of the remaining scents on my clothes. I get a solid 5 hours of full scent, by hour 6-7 there is more of a nice after sweetness that remains. Intentionally blended it with a cedar and amber scent, which was lovely and grounded it - added some sensuality. Accidentally blended it with a white amber, rose, and jasmine scent that it also worked well with - it brought out the sweetness and gave it a more femme/cute vibe. I like that it can swing either way depending on layering, honestly surprised by its versatility. Some might find the musk and patchouli a bit aging to this scent, imo it adds a sensuality that is uncommon in most floral leaning scents.

Ive wanted to own a Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb since around 2013, but it was just way too much for me. This is similar enough and such an affordable price. I always get a lot of compliments when I wear this. Cant get enough of it that I bought a back up one already!

At first I was nervous since the vanilla smell was overbearing when doing a test spray. Surprisingly, however, when mixed with my personal chemistry- it was as if I was walking down an isle in a flowery field!I have yet to try this scent again, but i will be using it as much as I can! However, since I prefer a bit of musk in my scents, it won't be my go too! 8/10 for me (due to personal preferences)10/10 would recommend for one who loves to smell like a princess- escaping into the royal garden to meet a forbidden lover

So close! As you can see this is one of my favorites from my order. I've went through quite a bit of it! It smells very similar to flowerbomb and I absolutely love it. This one has a longer lasting power than some of the others I have tried. The dry down is nice on it too.

Nice but.... Lacks the depth and spiciness of the original. It's a sweet and pleasantly floral scent, but it doesn't dry down with the same complexity and spice in my opinion. Pleasant but underwhelming. However it was a gift for someone who loves flowerbomb, and she was very happy with it, so it might just be me.

I, like so many people, love Flowerbomb. A lot. But I also like layering it with other scents. And it gets expensive FAST. I was super skeptical of the Dossier ads, as I've tried alternatives before and have always been disappointed. Not this time. I just got mine last week and still cannot get over how amazing it is. Smells, lasts, and wears just like Flowerbomb, for a QUARTER of the price. I am never going back.

I loved the original but have to be careful because Ill get a headache and therefore want to stick with products to be more natural and less harsh ingredients. I have 5 dossier perfumes and none of them have caused headaches for me! This scent is so lovely; beautiful dog mature smell with subtle sweetness. Definitely a go to on a regular basis for me for fall and winter scent.

I love this scent! I have not smelled the original, but i've heard it's VERY close. This is a sweet, floral, fruity musk scent... i'm not even sure how they were able to blend all those together and come up with such a beautiful scent. In my top 10 Dossier fragrances for sure. Safe blind buy!

A lot of people really love the original perfume, so I wanted to try it, but it was not for me. That doesnt mean it wont be for you though. I have 7 others from this company, and Im in love with all of them. The quality is great, the packing and magnetic bottle cap are great. I just dont love the type of flowers used in this perfume. I think I dont love white flowers. I am more of a peony, rose, orange blossom girl.
