Eau Mega by Viktor&Rolf

Taliera

I was expecting something different and unique - but it only partially delivered. At the very beginning I was extremely impressed, thinking it would be a masterpiece like Flowerbomb. It was flowery, luxurious and creamy. I got the sensations of it being "gold" and "smooth" (as the ad suggests, if you can imagine the scent equivalent). But over time a milky smell crept into the background. I HATE milk, but in small amounts it can seem attractively smooth and ultra-luxurious - which was the case then. Then the milk began to take a central role, and I was not liking it. Further along, I was feeling nauseous and finding the whole composition unbearable. It was as if all the beauty, complexity and charm was swamped by the "milky" smell, which gained strength in the drydown. In all, Eau Mega had promise in the beginning, but the end result was offputting.

Like many others have reviewed, this smells a lot like watermelons, that's the main top note that I get. Quite soon it turns into nice and subtle fruity floral, quite ordinary IMO. Fades out quite fast, after one hour I could smell it only when sniffing my skin really close.

I checked this one out because it's a green floral and I have owned Flowerbomb and love(d) it. It's fantastic, not interested in the "notes" because like it plays like song you love to listen to again and again. You just feel it, love it and that's it.

Eau de Mega puzzles me it's a rather weird perfume that takes sometime to figure out.
In the opening it's light,sweet and citrusy but after two seconds it becomes rather heady and almost abit sexy. The smell of violet leaf comes creeping and all by the sudden that sexy and sultry vibe is gone and replaced with girlish innocence.
But then later that girlish innocence transcends into heady sexyness once again as soon as the musk enters the picture.

This perfume reminds me of a woman who is free as the wind,breezy and just as fickle as love at first sight.

I tested this fragrance in anticipation when I finally saw it at my local Dept Store.

It's certainly fresh & totally different from Flowerbomb. Not too keen on the melon-ish start, however thankfully it's subtle in Eau Mega.

I have to say that unfortunately, to me, Eau Mega wasn't the unique & different fragrance that Flowerbomb is. Eau Mega smells like quite generic. Don't get me wrong, it's a very pretty fragrance - especially the drydown - but it's not unique enough for me.

For this reason I don't think I would buy it, but if someone gave it to me, I would definitely wear it.

PS: Don't like the design of the bottle very much. It's different, yes, but ugly & clunky too.

I loved flower bomb, great for special occasions and always received compliments. Just tried and bought Eau Mega and am in love again!! Different from Flower Bomb which is a big credit to Viktor & Rolf. They ventured beyond the safety of Flower Bomb, and created something as unique and lucious to be treasured. It's fresh, green & floral. Never disappoints! Sure more compliments will be coming!

Horrible absolutely cloying! It starts out melon,but not a good fresh melon,but the smell you find in certain candies with melontaste,so syntetic and nausiating. Then it gets a lot sweeter,while the basil kicked in ,and that didnt help at all. A very unbalanced unpleasant scent.

I tested this on a piece of paper in the store and it smelled like the classic pink bubblegum. Very nice actually. I need to test it on my skin

a.k.a.warum

I definitely not LOVE this perfume. I definitely not HATE it. I don't like it enough to hit the "like" button and -- you've already guessed! -- I don't dislike it enough to hit the dislike button. I guess I'm not sure how I relate to this perfume. Here's what I smell in it though:
First 5-10 minutes it's confused mix of things, green things mainly, with some sweetness, and violet leaves as I experienced them in L'Occitane Mimosa perfume.
Then it straightens into a slightly synthetic mix of watermelon and basil. It's not unpleasant... but I just don't know.

Upd.: its lasting power is good, approaching 5 hours, and it gets more natural basil smell when it dries down. Gets nicer and nicer, while fading a little. I'd think it's a good scent overall.

tried it at the store and first it was like there felt a piece of melon on me..
didnt make sense to wear it as perfume
but i continue shopping and when i was fitting some clothes i still smelled it on me and did smelled good after all

Chaminou

For my nose it's only melon and I cannot find anything else, before, after, during, only tonnes of melon. I gave a try many times, but always the same. It' OK, they couldn't release Flowerbomb third time, so now they made Melonbomb:)

Minnija

it is wright that Viktor&rolf made this one exactly like this....Those who love flowerbomb expect smth similar, but this is for 100% different, flowerbomb is very sweet, sexy, and satiated composition, so but they need to attract that public who like fresh scents, so they did that!

GIVE ME A BREAK

I have recently tested it and I can only smell watermelon.I liked Flowerbomb and reading all these here, I expected more.I can t imagine being near to someone who smells like a moving watermelon.

This is the epitome of floral style scents that I really do not care for. It is a pure overdose of floral that doesn't seem to evolve or exude any type of personality other than clean, generic, and overdone (much like may designer perfumes out there within the last 7 or 8 years). It's a pretty smell, but just too much of an overt, thick, white floral, synthetic smell.

Flowerbomb was something, but this is just blah.

nathalieZ

I really like it! it is fresh , green, harmonious, sophisticated, different, a better floral/green!!!!! nothing in common to me with DNKY...absolutely not synthetic I cant smell melon in it either!..too bad less and less people appreciate a simply well designed scent that isnt overdone!! like come on, do you expect a nice perfume t be made of moon dust or something far fetched like that???

Minnija

no, I can'ut see and smell eny similarity with DKNY red delicious...DKNy smells very fruity, girly, unpersonal perfume and I would say that it smells cheap, hat I can't say about Eau Mega. It is perfect :) Of course, flowerbomb will be the Top 1 perfume for me all the time, but Eau mega is good enaugh :) I smell BIG, JUICY melon :)

michelle23

I thought the pump was unique, however, it smelled almost identical to DKNY red delicious, which I'm totally sick of!

Does anyone else notice the similarity?

mypersonalharmonics

Interesting, very interesting, quite in tune with the era.
A "wide open" composition, sunny yet urban.
The pear is digitalised and offered in a glamorous synthetic package but it doesn't put me off.
Not so much a green perfume though. A floral yellow if there was such a category...
Absence of a base.

I have tried this twice now and still cannot buy it. I love my flowerbomb but this is not right on me. I wanted to like it. :(

jatzzie

Love it! To me it smells like watermelon and I love anything that smells watermelon-like.:D Also the bottle is very nice, I like the whole push-the-stamps concept and the bottle is lovely.I was expecting something completely different as I think it was advertized as having this sortta "forest-smell" to it, thus making me think it would be extremely green and I'm not into green fragrances at all. So yes, this was a nice surprise.:)
I must get it for my collection at some point.This watermeloness...Gotta love it.:)

renneyg007

Love this. It has some kick to it and although floral/green i find it quite seductive and sexy. Normally I don't like green or floral in isolation but this is the perfect combo. The pear, lemon and peony dominate for me and the musk gives it that sexy note. Bottle is great, definately on my Christmas list!

DreamGirl

Absolutely one of the best perfumes ever made! I have had around 50-60 perfumes and I am working in a very big perfume shop, so I get to smell all perfumes that come to Norway. This perfume is a perfume to die for :) There are some perfumes that I can not live without and I love to smell them all the time. This is one of them! Even though that it smells very light, it stays on my skin for 12-13 hours!

fleurdelis

I've sniffed this twice now and I have to say that this is a lovely fresh fragrance! The pinapple and the basil are just wonderful, but it's not too sweet or boring. I haven't smelled anything like it.

I think a lot of people expected another Flowerbomb--well, this is definitely not a floral. I think it's a champ of fresh fragrances!

Though I really can't stand the bottle. The stamps look cheap and are hard to use. Just take those off and it would be perfect.

I have Flowerbomb which I purchased unsniffed since I loved Extreme one so much. I like it, and it's adored by others.

Eau Mega scared me already because it's 'green' I pictured something leafy and boring.

That's why I was so surprised when actually sprayed it (bottle is so hard do figure out how to do it, u need to push stamps lol) I sniffed- that's watermelon!! A moderately sweet one, not like in D&G's Imperatrice.
Later I figured out that it must be - pear + basil and leaf playing such a trick. True.

Next, pear dies a bit, I mean fades away, nothing rotten in this... xD
You are left with basil, leaf and basic floral mix. Top was it.

Overall, quite nice, but I still crave for Flowerbomb Extreme which is perfect ^^
