Spicebomb Infrared Eau de Parfum

Spicebomb Infrared EDP offers a unique blend of fiery spices and sweet resins, evoking the impression of a "spicy candy" before drying down to a woody, grounded finish. While it doesn’t boast beastly longevity, its sophisticated evolution and warm, inviting profile make it a standout for cooler months. Perfect for those who appreciate a scent that combines boldness with a touch of sweetness. Opening: Spicebomb Infrared EDP opens with a bold and inviting burst of cinnamon and chili pepper, immediately capturing attention with its fiery warmth. The resins, unusually noticeable from the very start, lend a rich sweetness that blends seamlessly with the spices, creating an almost "spicy candy" effect. Pink pepper enhances the texture, providing a bright, slightly tingling contrast to the richer notes. Heart: As the fragrance settles, the leather note makes its entrance. It remains subtle and smooth, more of an elegant backdrop that deepens the spicy-sweet core rather than asserting itself prominently. The interplay between the resins and the chili pepper continues, maintaining the sweet spiciness that gives the fragrance its unique charm. Dry Down: In the dry down, the woodsy notes begin to take center stage, balancing the earlier sweetness with a drier, slightly creamy finish. The transition from spicy candy to a woodier profile feels natural and well-executed, though the fragrance becomes more intimate and subdued at this stage. Performance: On my skin, the longevity is moderate, lasting around 4–5 hours before fading into a close skin scent. While the initial projection is noticeable and garners attention, the fragrance settles fairly quickly, making it more suited for shorter outings or occasions where subtlety is preferred. Versatility: This is a scent that truly shines in cooler weather, especially in fall and winter. The warm, spicy, and slightly sweet profile is perfect for cozy evening settings, whether for date nights or casual gatherings. However, its moderate longevity and softer dry down make it less ideal for long days or outdoor events. Comparison to Infrared EDT: The EDP leans sweeter and smoother compared to the sharper, more vibrant EDT. The absence of red berries and tobacco in the EDP allows the resinous and woodsy notes to take precedence, creating a more refined, less playful scent. However, its relatively shorter lifespan on the skin might make the EDT more appealing for those prioritizing performance. Comparision to Original: The original Spicebomb is a creamy, vanilla-driven gourmand with warm spices, offering universal appeal and versatility across seasons and occasions. Its dessert-like sweetness makes it comforting and crowd-pleasing. Spicebomb Infrared EDP, by contrast, is sharper and bolder, with fiery cinnamon, chili pepper, and resinous "spicy candy" sweetness. While less versatile, it’s an intense and daring scent that thrives in colder months and evening settings. Choose the original for approachable warmth or Infrared EDP for its bold, provocative edge.

Infrared EDT is my favorite version of Spicebomb so I wanted to give the EDP a run. Going into it I knew that the Tobacco & Red Berries had been removed and replaced with Leather for this version, and I was apprehensive because the Red Berries were my favorite part of the EDT. I have to say that I love this flanker, but I don't love it as much as the EDT. You get hit right off the bat with chili pepper & that cinnamon coming in. Going into the mid, the leather starts to shine. You get lots of resins and amber as thing dries down. It's so well-blended like all of the Spicebombs. To me the EDP doesn't change a whole lot or have as much character as the EDT. The EDP is heavy on the cinnamon for sure, and it's smooth, but it's missing what made the EDT special. I find this version smoother and more mature. The EDP doesn't perform like the EDT did on my skin. I still get good longevity, but it doesn't push off of my skin after an hour or two. I find this one to be less versatile because I think it should only be worn in cold environments. I would wear it day or night, but only fall or winter. I think V&R did well in releasing a flanker that isn't redundant to Infrared EDT. Both have their uses for me. I would just wear the EDT in more situations. This is full bottle worthy to me, but I won't be rushing out to buy it. I give it a solid 8/10.

More in tune with the original EDT Spicebomb. It’s smoother than it’s predecessor, and I really enjoy what they did here with the spices, and the subtle sweetness mixed with the leather. It’s fiery but soft, and not as peppery and in your face like the EDT and OG Spicebomb. It basically smells how the bottle looks to put it simply. Cold weather, dates, nights out, formal occasions this is a banger. It’s a more grown up version of the EDT and one of the best in the line. The only negative is the versatility depending on where you live, but aside from that this is great if you enjoy spices, amber, and leather or looking for something that’s not extremely loud but still will get you noticed in the winter months. ~6-8 hrs longevity, good projection for the first hour before sitting closer to the skin. Some people have an issue with performance but my skin does well with the spices. Lastly, this is NOT a good blind buy. This is the type of fragrance that is very focused on certain types of notes, the red spices, so sample first.

I love the fragrance Spicebomb Infrared Eau de Parfum more than words can express. The moment it hits my skin, I am enveloped in a seductive blend of spicy notes and warm undertones that never fails to captivate my senses. Its bold and daring scent perfectly complements my personality, making me feel confident and alluring whenever I wear it. But what truly sets Spicebomb Infrared apart is the way it captivates the attention of those around me. Every time I wear this fragrance, I notice heads turning and conversations starting. It seems like a magnet for compliments, especially from the ladies. The way they react to the scent is undeniable proof of its power to attract and intrigue. In conclusion, Spicebomb Infrared Eau de Parfum is not just a fragrance to me; it is a symbol of my confidence, charm, and magnetic presence. The attention it garners is a testament to its undeniable allure and the way it enhances my natural charisma. It's not just a fragrance; it's a confidence booster and a conversation starter.

It took me a couple of wears to figure out how I feel about this and the verdict is ...... I love it ! This is certainly a cold weather / winter scent but is a fresh and clean winter scent . To me tobacco always come off a little ... dirty I guess you’d say . Here it’s replaced with leather .. not a dirty leather jacket .. but .. imagine a well healed guy pulls up along side you and asks you for directions and you get a waft of clean new car leather pushed out the window by the a/c in his new BMW .. very wearable and mass appealing . Similar to Ombré Leather but not as strong . That plus beautiful cinnamon . I find this more unique than many designers but more wearable than most niche . One of my new favorite cool weather scents and probably my fav from the line up . Not everyone here will agree but .. your mileage may very so stop by Macys or Sephora and give it a whiff

A very simplistic way to look at it: this is the Infrared EDT without the tobacco note and some spicy freshness tweaks. While this continues to be fresh-spicy and slightly sweet and woody fragrance, it is much more versatile than Infrared EDT (which was really close to the OG SB). The tobacco note to me was a curve ball in this line and while made it very unique and recognizable, it also made it too much for some. I really enjoy this fragrance and highly recommend you try, especially if you felt other "Bombs" weren't for you. If you are happy with Infrared EDT or OG/EXTREME, this might feel to you as if something is missing (tobacco, duh). It is a true flanker to the EDT and has the OG DNA in it. Longevity is above average, and projection/silage are better than EDT version. I am glad I got it and it is my favorite Spice Bomb at the moment.

This perfume is an absolute masterpiece that leaves a lasting impression. The fragrance opens with an intense burst of spices and vibrant red berries. As it settles, the heart notes reveal a rich and seductive combination, adding a sensual warmth to the composition. While it's marketed as a men's fragrance, I find it to be a unisex gem, perfect for anyone seeking a daring and bold olfactory experience. Whether it's a special occasion or a confident everyday statement, I believe this perfume is a must-have for fragrance enthusiasts looking to make an unforgettable impact. The projection and longevity is good, it lasts approximately 7 hours on my skin, a few days on my clothes before disappearing completely. (Depends on skin types) Overall Rating (8.5/10) new bottle it’s leaking. low bootle quality

@ the gent complaining about cinnamon.. its a very easy way to get sweet red spice while staying dry / non metallic. This is an Amber Spice... I'll give you a second to realize just how few utilize cinnamon. Folks noting Dr. Pepper is wildly funny to me - and surprisingly accurate, likely why I prefer the inspired by (this), Wild Wanderer from B&BW. This is my favorite DNA next to musky vanilla - and this one is done very well. The spice is sharp, the leather comforting you and the more dry spices come through to tickle your nose in keeping with that Spicebomb dry down. However this one is done to the level of gourmand fougere (almost), but it lacks any green or fresh tinge, just a familiarity. Bottle is fun too, little grenade is fun to un pin on my more bold mornings post workout.

Infrared Spicebomb is an incredibly underrated member of the Spicebomb line. The opening is a strong, spicy, masculine scent that dries down to still be spicy and masculine but becomes lighter and fresher. It lasts nearly the whole day on skin and up to multiple days on clothing while projecting for hours. This is by far the most complimented scent in my collection and is an absolute head turner. It's less popular than many other designer scents making it more unique and less repititive than others around you. Great for date nights, is extremely noticable and memorable. I am on my second bottle of this after my girlfriend insisted I buy another bottle which I gladly did. When I run out I will be buying a 3rd bottle, this is by far my favorite fragrance.

OMG This is the BOMB I am in love with this masculine smell my wife loves it too I bought a bottle immediately not passing this up noway. The edt was good but smelled like big red bubble gum and it lasted a good 2 hours then faded away but that was good too. This Edp version has a nice smooth kick and I simply love the juicy hot spice it is alot better in longevity and smell and performance than the edt version. A excellent mens perfume 10/10 for me. I've had the og Spicebomb and Spicebomb Extreme both awesome a few in the line I didn't care for until this and man the rest is history a great buy money now a days well spent.

It's unique, just evolves too fast for my taste. Loads of red chili (a.k.a Thai chili for me), and a sweetness that I can't describe properly (might be the resins), a bit ambroxan-like with hints of vanilla, not predominant, just in a supportive all-around balance. Very interesting, inviting, it's noticeable, but in the way that's made, is crowd pleasing and not kicking in your face, is elegant, classy, and the evolution is magnificent, very very classy, alluring and mature, it makes you willing to get closer and closer...conclusion: Very Unique Amazing evolution Not for young crowds (27 Y.O+) Balanced. Score 8.7/10.

Got a little vial of this with a fragrance order. Immediately was a little put off, something kind of spicy, didn't remind me of chili peppers, but maybe a little, I could see it. However, as it settles down, you really start to notice the chili pepper in my eyes, with the resin, its just excellent. Might sound weird, but it reminds me very much of a cola, or some sort of cola type soda, with a touch of cinnamon, and a slight spiciness. I really dig it. Might have to pick up a bottle, have been wanting to see what Spicebomb was about, and this was a great introduction, even if it wasn't SB Extreme.

A great version of spicebomb, I often see people hating on infrared but I think its my favorite. It's a much sweeter version of the classic, but still with a kick of spice and pepper. Projection and longevity are fantastic, but not as much as other versions of spicebomb. I'm still getting a strong 8-10 hours out of this, but not quite the level of spicebomb extreme which seems to last forever. Fantastic for fall and winter nights, especially for those appreciating a brighter, but still masculine, scent!

I'm in love with this. I got a sample and I'm a woman and sprayed it multiple times, have used up the sample. It's def a men's fragrance but it's so spicy and good I might end up getting it for myself. Any man would just be heavenly with this on. I wish I had a guy to buy this for. SO GOOD It lasts a very long time, I sprayed it on a teddy bear fleece pullover and it stayed multiple days. A little goes a long way. OBSESSED. I've never thought of getting a men's fragrance for myself but I am so tempted.

Spicebomb Infrared EDP is a winter night essential. It strikes a perfect balance, offering a strong and enchanting scent ideal for colder evenings. Use 3 sprays for a subtle, nice smell on you, or go for 5 sprays if you want to create a scent bubble around you. The warm and woody notes make it a smart choice for a cool night out that people will remember. This cologne hangs around nicely, keeping you smelling good for a long time. It's a unique scent that's not too common because it's pretty new.

Nice fragrance. The habanero pepper is present in the opening, but it's gone rather quickly. This leaves you with a single dry cinnamon note for the rest of the day. It's pleasant, but not very complex. Strictly speaking this makes it more suitable for colder weather. However, I wore it in summer with moderate temperatures and it works well if you don't overdo the number of sprays. I have yet to try it in fall and winter, as the fragrance was released only recently. For now this is a like.

I love the cinnamon , peppery and sweet smell from this fragrance. Before it starts to dry down on me it is a peppery cinnamon but not too overbearing with the pepper not. It sort of reminds me of the red gum from Dentyne. As it settles a get a whiff of a sweet cinnamon. It does not last too long, I would say roughly 6-7 hours until it starts to fade yet smelling it here & there. This is definitely unisex however, since it is a spicy sweet scent people’s ph may not go well with it.

Tried this in Sephora yesterday and let 2 sprays stay on my wrist for 6 hours. It lasted through one hand wash. So longevity is very good. Very smooth fragrance on my skin. I get dominant Cinnamon, pink pepper and resins throughout the life and leather is when it is about to fade completely. Opening reminds me of earlier batches of Azzaro PH Intense with added pepper. High likelihood of bottle purchase for me. Great night time fragrance. 9/10 based on first impression.

This____smells____fantastic, here and now in cold weather conditions. A definite improvement over the original infrared. More dense, slightly better performance and minus the old school tobacco note. It took a couple of weeks to age and round into form because before that it was kind of weak. But here we are now ready to cinnamon and red berry things up, up up and away... Oh, and the good performance with it washing off easily the next day is a big plus. Loving this.

It's been two months since I've had this! I love it more and more with each wear! It's just that the first time I sprayed it, I didn't quite get it. But now I wear it with great pleasure. This has become a new favorite! It's so great, masculine, warm, spicy. It's not beast mode, but it's very present and special! If you want a perfume for a date or in a closed place and to be noticed, but not to offend others - this is it!

This is THE best spicebomb in my opinion. Infrared EDP is the most sensual, warm and most sexy of all the fragrances in the spicebomb line. It's spicy from the cinnamon and chili pepper, but somehow it is still kind of fresh, which is amazing and unexpected. It has smooth leather and warmth from the resins and the wood, such an amazing scent profile. If you're looking for a sexy and sensual fragrance - get this one.

While Spicebomb Extreme has a spicy base dominated by vanilla and tobacco, Spicebomb Infrared has a spicy base dominated by sweet cinnamon. As much as I love Extreme, I think Infrared is a more versatile scent. Extreme is the perfect Christmas scent, but Infrared is just as comfortable around pumpkins and turkeys. The longevity is remarkable; I can still smell on my arm 12 hours after application.

Spicebomb Infrared EDP was one of Viktor&Rolf's best flanker release, my fav from the line💣 This one should have gotten the all black, murdered out bottle imo. ⚫ ----- More mature Spicebomb moving towards the Tom Ford Oud Wood realm but being more price friendly. This one won't be everyone's cup of tea, but it does have an audience for that style. ----- Winter/Fall with a leather jacket wear. 🧥

Men - and Ladies - This is can be enjoyed by both as a unisex fragrance. I mainly smell the cozy cinnamon, which I just love, grounded by a nice woodsy note. It very much reminds me of Kay-Ali Lovefest Burning Cherry, without being as potent or strong as Lovefest Burning Cherry. I love both fragrances and I own them both. Infrared is great for wearing during the cooler months.

simply my absolute favorite fragrance so far, amazing for fall and winter. very spicy and warm, emphasis on the pepper, cinnamon, and woods here with a bit of leather. although this fragrance is very expensive retail you can easily find it for 90$ or less and at that price with it's amazing performance I think it's one of the best if not the best fall/winter fragrance!

Wow so to start off this thing is very spicy and hot. Definitely only use during the winter or a cold fall day. I feel like my nose is burning from how hot and spicy it is. I tend to get more normal colognes that aren't that strong with smelling hot. My most spicest is Dior sauvage edt, this thing is like taking that spice of it and multiplying it by 5

I genuinely exclaimed when I first smelt this fragrance on me. Was a bit of an eye opener. I own extreme and can smell the similarity between the two but I think I would rather wear this than extreme. This scent puts me at ease and gives me a sense of comfort whilst I find extreme kinda uncomfortable. Defo will be buying a full bottle of this soon!

Lovely composition. cinnamon and pepper on a resinous and woody canvas. The dry down almost has a fougere quality which wouldn’t be obvious to me from the stated note breakdown. Maybe it’s the slight sweetness with leather and woodiness??? It lasts 4-6 hours on skin. Not a strong fragrance, but it is beautiful and worth buying IMO.

As somebody relatively new to the fragrance world, I found this at Sephora and knew instantly even on the strip that it would be a banger. Put it on my skin and it did not disappoint. As far as fall scents, this and PdM Layton are my go-to to give off the cozy and inviting vibes while also maintaining that masculine frame

Not a full review* Definitely more sophisticated than the EDT! It has this strong blast of leather and spice in the opening like nothing I've smelled before. It also changes beautifully over time. Definitely got a solid WOW when I first smelled it on my skin. It's without a doubt a solid 10/10 in my book.

Red Spicy Sweetness. Such an amazing scent by Viktor&Rolf. Severely underrated. Totally cheap (60€ on flaconi) price point and smells way outside of that price league. Works for summer evenings and nights, but could smell odd and cloying in heat. Very fun bottle aswell. A must try fragrance.

Purchased for my 36 year old boyfriend, though his 14 year old son is constantly stealing sprays as well! This is such a warm, masculine, comforting scent. It makes me feel safe and protected when I hug him and smell it on his chest. Intoxicating scent with great performance for the price.

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!

My first Spicebomb and I love the scent. I just wish it projected a little more. I have Boss Bottled Elixir and that's beast mode by comparison, though I prefer this scent profile over BBE. Maybe the EdT has a little more punch, so I might need to sample that one at some point.

Opening is abrasive and spicy but the dry down does a complete 180 into sweetness that lasts long enough to survive a trip or two through the wash cycle. Despite the opening I love the scent that sticks to you for the remainder of the time.

Idk why, but this really REALLY reminds me of Lattafa Asad, just much more refined with more leather. And I have both. Asad is linear and projects better. Infrared EDP dries down into a smoother leathery scent, but more intimate projection.

On my skin, this to me smells like pizza! :) And I mean it in a good way, have this in my wish list. Among all fragrances that I have smelled so far, this is the one that most clearly brings pizza to my mind. This is the pizza fragrance

Beautiful fragrance, to me smells like a straight chilli and cinnamon. It literally smells spicy, like you feel warmer wearing it. Insane longevity for me easily lasts whole day on skin and can still smell it on clothes 2 days later.

If you have spice bomb, I feel like this is the next step; this I feel is a touch more...gourmand I think, the pepper is softer and the cinnamon punches more. Very nice, but too much for summer unless it’s at night. Easy blind buy.

Big big fan of extreme also, but this is my favorite. Chili and cinnamon off the top and dries down with sweetness and some freshness as well. Feels like the more mainstream spicebomb that anyone can wear. I love this stuff a lot.

This is great. Just got it today. Great performance and sillage. Waay better than the OG More masculing and mature. Cinnamon subtle in the resin. Actually reminds me a bit of Boss Bottled Elixir but way more character. Awesome

One of my favorite smells. I have heard that it’s not everyone’s thing but for me personally I love it. An easy 9/10. The spicy, leather smell is amazing and I believe this is the best out of the spice bomb line from V&R.

Similar to the EdT, but different in that it is is a bit darker and projects less. Similar to Spicebomb extreme as well, which the zest is not. It is a great fragrance but I prefer the zest better. I own both.

Addicting, well-rounded fragrance. I tried the entire line and thought this one and extreme were the two standouts. The cinnamon is not overwhelming and adds a warm sweetness that sets this one apart

My favorite cold weather cologne! Incredibly strong smelling and the notes are absolutley incredible. Perfect for a cold night out. Highly reccomend if you are looking to stand out a bit more!

One of the most sexy fragrance I’ve ever laid my nose on makes we want to have intimate relations with anyone wearing it including myself and one of my favourite fragrances for date nights.

The notes are perfect but the fragrance is very weak. Intimate sillage and around 4 hours performance. Which is ok for a cheap fragrance but I expected more for this price

Strong projection and last about 6-8 hours. This stuff smells amazing the pepper and cinnamon is a amazing combo I can’t see someone not liking this so blind Buy safe

I got a chance to smell it early, To me its a stronger and more gourmet version of the edt with a rich cinnamon I could also even smell a dash of coffee

This might be my favorite opening of any fragrance. That cinnamon and chili pepper work so well together. Amazing fall and winter scent.
