Very nice and friendly scent

I gave up on trying flankers from V&R after the Spicebomb Extreme, that one is one of the best winter scents in my books and probably the only Viktor & Rolf worthy of a blind buy.

I like how the Pink Pepper gives it a pop to this scent and together with the leather and woody notes, becomes a pleasant masculine scent, without trying too much.

Not sure the longevity will be too good, it got very fast close to the skin from my sample .. but overall one can overspray, the price is not too high to be too upset about that.

Overall a nice release from 3 famous perfumers, including the one who created Aventus.
Thanks for leaving a like on my video.

It's completely crazy....

..... How chili behaves as a fragrance. You spray the fragrance on and immediately notice the spicy notes. I perceive cinnamon rather weakly, but I still immediately think of the "BIG RED" chewing gum that was (or still is?) available a few years ago.
What do I mean by "crazy"?
Well, you can smell the chili, you can see the grenade bottle with the red partial coloring, so you have a visual and an olfactory pungent factor in front of you.
What happens next is almost magical. The tongue prepares itself to accept and "survive" the capsaicin, it starts to tingle but the pungency as a taste or pain factor remains completely absent. The smell remains, which is of course in no way painful but exciting and tingling.
I love it!

Boredom in a bottle.

"Infrared" is not perceptible to the human eye. That's how I feel about this fragrance.

I tested the Infrared EdP a few days ago and was very curious and expectant, both in terms of the fragrance pyramid and its pedigree (I love Spicebomb Extreme!).

Well... The first spray said it all. Cinnamon and red pepper and even chili! Sounds awesome! Think again.

Some diffuse sweetness and a slightly woody note waft up somewhere from the base notes, but without conveying any depth. Barely perceptible overall. There is not much development and the "fragrance" disappears completely in a short time.

H/S are therefore a total waste of time. Better to test before a blind buy so that you don't fall flat on your face.

Finally, to save my honor, a relativization: fragrances react differently on every skin and when I look at the other reviews here, I have a hard time assuming that the Infrared reacts rather "abnormally" on me.

Red Batman

I have two older brothers and when we were much much younger, we gave one of our Uncles a nickname; 'Uncle Batman'

No reason. No recollection as to why we named him that, and for about ten years he remained 'Uncle Batman'.

I am a massive fan of the Original Spicebomb, the OG, I don't think there's much in the flankers. Even the much vaunted Spicebomb Extreme...which I think is good if a little obvious. I am not really a fan of flankers per se of any most brands.

I don't care for the Spicebomb flankers because I don't see them as much of a great improvement on the original, and I don't really see them as an improvement at all. They're variations on a theme but the main story is so good why remix a great song.

I didn't have much hope for this.

Infrared EdP - when I sampled it. I was impressed. I do like this and I do think it would be something I would wear. I have worn Spicebomb Extreme and enjoyed wearing it, but what is the difference?

I think this is more characterful, a deeper impressive fragrance. I would wear this and could see myself wearing this for as long as I would Spicebomb, but I much prefer the original.

The impression I wrote down when I sampled this because I felt compelled to write something; and I wrote 'Batman in Red Batsuit, Uncle Batman in a red batsuit'. The colour red pervades from this is such a warm ethereal cloud undulating and warping through the air.

I am impressed by this, its worth a healthy sample and a wear.

The distinctive sweet mysterious chili bomb...

Speechless... Awesome... You have to like it if you like sweet and spicy fragrances... In addition, it lasts long, sillage perfectly tuned also reminds me of perfect moments such as going to visit but not on 0815 style or better said on an important day would go this fragrance can not get out of your head when you smell it or if you had nice memories ...
