We rank the "smells-like" alternatives to Flowerbomb Nectar by how closely their cited accords match the original, cheapest first. A dupe is meant to evoke Flowerbomb Nectar, not match its formula, and we say as much. If we can't verify a genuine match yet, we leave it off.

Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Nectar is listed as a women's fragrance by the retailer. That's a marketing label, not a rule: fragrance has no gender, and plenty of "women's" scents are worn by anyone. We show how it's sold and leave the wearing to you.
