Lasting longer isn’t the whole story.

Longevity
How long you can still detect the scent.
Projection
How far the scent radiates around you.
Sillage
The scent trail you leave as you move.

Bars use the same scale for every bottle. Projection and trail are qualitative ratings from light to heavy; they don’t describe hours at full strength.

Joint #4 for longevity
Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb Eau de Toilette Eau de Toilette bottle

Spicebomb Eau de Toilette

Bergamot & grapefruit · Cinnamon · Tobacco, leather & vetiver

The original citrus, spice and tobacco.

The original Spicebomb moves from bergamot and grapefruit into cinnamon, tobacco, leather and vetiver. We get 8 hours with moderate projection and moderate sillage. Start here for the line’s familiar spicy tobacco character, then compare Extreme if a sweeter vanilla direction and longer wear appeal.

Choose it for The original spicy tobacco profile with 8 hours and moderate presence.

Consider: Extreme lasts 10–12 hours in our ratings and has a more noticeable trail. The original EDT is still a distinct scent choice when citrus and drier spicy woods matter more than maximum wear.

#1 for longevity
Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb Extreme Eau de Parfum bottle

Spicebomb Extreme

Lavender & black pepper · Cinnamon & saffron · Tobacco & vanilla

The longest wear. A fuller tobacco and vanilla trail.

Extreme brings lavender and warm spices into tobacco, vanilla and a bourbon-like warmth. It lasts 10–12 hours on our skin, with moderate projection and moderate to strong sillage. Choose it for the longest wear in this lineup and a richer, sweeter interpretation of Spicebomb’s tobacco theme.

Choose it for Maximum wear here, with a moderate to strong trail.

Consider: Its richer vanilla and tobacco character is a different choice from Metallic Musk’s softer musk and suede direction. The moderate projection rating does not mean it has a light trail.

Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision EDT Eau de Toilette bottle

Spicebomb Night Vision EDT

Green fruit & cardamom · Herbs & spices · Almond & tonka

Fresh fruit and aromatics. Lighter presence.

Night Vision EDT combines grapefruit, green fruit and cardamom with aromatic herbs, dark spices, almond and tonka. We get 6–7 hours, with light projection and light sillage. Sample it when the fresher aromatic side of Spicebomb appeals and you prefer a lighter presence.

Choose it for A fresher aromatic direction with light projection and a light trail.

Consider: It has the shortest wear estimate here. Night Vision EDP adds roughly an hour in our ratings and reaches moderate projection while keeping light sillage.

#7 for longevity
Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb Night Vision EDP Eau de Parfum bottle

Spicebomb Night Vision EDP

Black pepper · Green resin accord · Balsam fir

Black spices, green resins and fir.

Night Vision EDP takes a darker green direction with black pepper, a green resin accord and balsam fir. We get 7–8 hours with moderate projection and light sillage. Choose it for that resinous woody character when you want more projection than Night Vision EDT without a heavier trail.

Choose it for The greener resinous Night Vision profile with moderate projection.

Consider: Its 7–8 hours overlaps the fixed 8-hour EDT, Infrared EDT and Metallic Musk estimates, but starts lower. Do not buy it expecting Extreme’s 10–12 hours or fuller sillage.

Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb Infrared EDT Eau de Toilette bottle

Spicebomb Infrared EDT

Red fruits, pink pepper & saffron · Cinnamon & red pepper · Tobacco & benzoin

Red fruit, hot pepper and tobacco.

Infrared EDT puts red fruit and peppery heat around cinnamon, tobacco and benzoin. It lasts 8 hours on our skin, with moderate projection and light sillage. Start here if a fruity spicy tobacco scent appeals and you want a lighter trail than the original EDT.

Choose it for A red-fruit and pepper direction with moderate projection and light sillage.

Consider: It shares the 8-hour estimate with the original EDT and Metallic Musk. Infrared EDP lasts 9 hours in our ratings and has moderate sillage, with a more leather-focused scent direction.

Spicebomb Infrared EDP

Red pepper · Leather · Resinous woods

Hot pepper and leather. Nine hours.

Infrared EDP pairs red pepper heat with leather and resinous woods. We get 9 hours, moderate projection and moderate sillage. Choose it when you want a spicy leather direction with a more noticeable trail than Infrared EDT and a fixed 9-hour wear estimate.

Choose it for Peppery leather with 9 hours and moderate projection and sillage.

Consider: Extreme lasts longer in this comparison and has a fuller trail. Infrared EDP is a separate leather and resin interpretation, so choose its scent as well as the extra hour over Infrared EDT.

Spicebomb Dark Leather

Black pepper & nutmeg · Cinnamon & incense · Dark leather & tobacco

Smoky leather. A light to moderate trail.

Dark Leather follows black pepper and nutmeg into cinnamon, incense, dark leather and tobacco. It lasts 8–9 hours on our skin, with moderate projection and light to moderate sillage. Sample it for smoky leather and tobacco when you prefer a trail between our light and moderate ratings.

Choose it for Smoky leather and tobacco with a light to moderate scent trail.

Consider: Its 8–9 hours reaches Infrared EDP’s 9-hour estimate but starts lower. Extreme lasts longer and has moderate to strong sillage; Dark Leather keeps the focus on its smoky leather character.

Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb Metallic Musk Eau de Parfum bottle

Spicebomb Metallic Musk

Black pepper · White musk · Silver suede

Pepper, white musk and suede. Softer presence.

Metallic Musk brings black pepper, white musks and a silver suede accord into focus. We get 8 hours with light projection and light sillage. Choose it for a softer musk and suede direction when you want the same wear estimate as the original EDT with lighter presence around you.

Choose it for Musk and suede with 8 hours, light projection and light sillage.

Consider: Its light presence lasts longer than Night Vision EDT in our ratings. It does not match Extreme’s wear or fuller trail, and its musk and suede profile is a different route through the Spicebomb line.

Spicebomb, answered.

Which Spicebomb lasts the longest?

Spicebomb Extreme lasts the longest on our skin, at 10–12 hours. Infrared EDP follows at 9, then Dark Leather at 8–9. The original EDT, Infrared EDT and Metallic Musk share an 8-hour estimate.

Does Spicebomb Extreme project the most?

How do Night Vision EDT and EDP compare?

Night Vision EDT lasts 6–7 hours with light projection and light sillage. Night Vision EDP lasts 7–8 hours with moderate projection and light sillage. EDT is fresher and aromatic; EDP has a darker green resin and fir direction.

Does Infrared EDP last longer than Infrared EDT?

We get 9 hours from Infrared EDP and 8 from Infrared EDT. Both have moderate projection. EDP has moderate sillage; EDT has light sillage. The EDP brings leather and resinous woods into focus, while EDT follows red fruit, hot pepper and tobacco.

How strong is Dark Leather’s sillage?

Dark Leather has light to moderate sillage in our ratings, with moderate projection and 8–9 hours of wear. Its trail sits between our light and moderate levels; it has not been rounded to either one.

Which Spicebomb has the lightest projection?

Night Vision EDT and Metallic Musk both have light projection and light sillage. Metallic Musk lasts 8 hours on our skin; Night Vision EDT lasts 6–7. Choose between their softer musk and suede or fresher aromatic profiles.

Why are three editions tied at eight hours?

The original EDT, Infrared EDT and Metallic Musk each have a fixed 8-hour wear estimate. They share fourth place for longevity. Night Vision EDP’s 7–8 hours reaches the same endpoint but starts lower, placing it next.

Are these performance ratings guaranteed?

These are our wear estimates for this comparison. Skin, weather, application and perception affect the result. Longevity describes overall detectability, rather than time spent projecting at full strength.
