“From morning to evening - BRUNCH, LUNCH and DINNER.” - OMR BEAUTY [via Instagram caption]

 

‘Occasions’: the new fragrance collection from Omar’s beauty company, OMR BEAUTY, is what everybody is currently talking about. The collection includes a trio of perfume oils, concocted flawlessly to assist you during specific occasions, and named accordingly for each one: BRUNCH, LUNCH and DINNER. This new collection, like all current OMR BEAUTY products, are both vegan as well as unisex, therefore attracting a wide range of customers - they’re made for everyone!

 

BRUNCH, which the company began teasing on October 14th and released just ten days later, is the first of the collection to arrive at the doorsteps of the lucky buyers. The perfume comes packaged in an exclusive honey-drip box, alongside a photo card of Omar Rudberg. Astonishing upon arrival, the photocard and packaging design only capture a fragment of the product's beauty. The perfume oil, itself, is an exquisite sight – sleek and minimalistic with its dainty tube and gorgeous lettering.

But what do you think of BRUNCH? What has this community got to say about it? 

 

Something that I find rather curious is that though this fragrance will smell slightly different on each person who uses it (due to their pheromones), when asking people to review BRUNCH, most responded with almost identical evaluations. For example, early reactions to BRUNCH have had the recurring theme: ‘it smells like Christmas’, which is an engrossing observation. In addition, when asking for reviews on this fragrance, one individual expressed that BRUNCH is ‘a perfect fragrance for fall and winter’ due to its warmth. This community seems to be in agreement on the overall vibe. 

 

Nevertheless, when questioning users further, the majority describe the scent similarly, including their take on the stages on it, particularly how the fragrance sets over time. And what would that be, you ask? 

 

Beginning with a sweetness, often referenced as something close to ‘honey’ or ‘syrup’, the base immediately greets you upon application. Cedarwood, dry amber, tonka and vanilla are our ‘sweet’ base ingredients identified by fans giving an inviting first hit of BRUNCH. 

 

As it starts to set, the heart notes of this fragrance (lavandin, pink peppercorn, saffron and clove) begin to harmonize, offering a ‘warm’ and comforting smell. As mentioned above, many people have described this phase to align with the fall and winter seasons - cozy.

 

Despite the top notes of mandarin, grapefruit and watermelon, many have stated that this layer becomes quite apparent once the fragrance has settled for a while, being described as ‘fruity’ and ‘fresh’ after some time after applying. The mandarin within this layer has been found to be particularly significant in the unique deliverance of BRUNCH, easily identifiable after some time. Additionally, some feel that after letting it sit, the scent blooms into something more ‘floral’.

Needless to say, BRUNCH’s fragrance is powerful, lasting throughout the entire day. The collection of ingredients compliment one another with such grace, which perfectly encapsulates the scent of a brunch - a suitable title for this fragrance! 

 

What do you think? Do you agree with the majority analysis or is your view of this fragrance different? Let us know your thoughts!

In order to celebrate the launch of this collection, OMR BEAUTY announced that those sharing ‘Brunch Moments’ on social media could have the chance of being chosen by Omar Rudberg, himself, to win a gift of the whole "Occasions" perfume oil bundle. Participants were asked to post content of themselves with BRUNCH and tag OMR BEAUTY before selecting a lucky winner, announced on week 48.



Though pre-order began on November 7th for the collection’s other two fragrances, the official launch was November 20th. With shipping beginning on week 47, LUNCH and DINNER have now also been arriving at the door steps of many and the excitement is palpable. 

 

Lucky for USA citizens, the “Occasions” bundle currently has some remaining stock, as seen on their website, and therefore we advise you should head over to https://omrbeauty.com/en/occasions-collection  and purchase your own whilst you still can! As for Europe, the demand has been mindblowing, phenomenal, colossal, for this collection, with the bundle selling out by December 12th! Though the wonderful BRUNCH fragrance has also rapidly sold out in Europe, limited stock of LUNCH and DINNER is still currently available to obtain. 

 

Stay tuned for Volume 2, where we will talk about our next candidate from this collection!

SUMMER SHOWS

 

“I have the best fans in the world. I’m so lucky to have you all in my life. Can’t wait to dance and sing with you this summer.” - Omar Rudberg [via X]



SUMMER 2024: WHEN OMAR RUDBERG TOOK OVER THE WORLD. 

I’m just kidding! Sort of…

 

The summer of 2024 is an extremely cherished and memorable time for Omar Rudberg’s fans that nobody can seem to get enough of, even as we enter 2025. Not only did Rudberg kickstart the sunny season, he seized the entirety of summer with his extraordinary performances, and he sent it off with a bang, leaving behind a mesmerized community.  

 

We asked you about your experiences from last summer’s shows, and it became adamant that this period of time is specifically favoured by many. But how and why did this summer become such a core memory for fans?



“Seeing u guys happy and excited and having a good time at my shows is literally a gift from the universe. The energy we create in a room together is just… wow.” - Omar Rudberg [via X]

On May 25th, Omar’s summer performances began at Furuvik Live (at the venue Furuviksparken) in Gävle, Sweden. This showcased one of my favourite outfits that Omar has ever worn - an outfit that I cannot help but mention. Yes, without a doubt every single one of Omar’s outfits are exquisite, but this purple, cropped jacket and trousers co-ord is definitely one that stands out to me, and many other fans. I mean, what better way to start off a summer of performances than owning the stage in a simply flawless outfit? 

One fan, user @jullan_yr on Instagram, told us that the best part of Furuvik for them was finding out the summer setlist. “It was exciting to see what song was playing next since it was the first show,” she commented.

We can only imagine the hysteria when this setlist included a rather significant detail: the debut performance of both ‘Talk’ and ‘Bye Bye’. Later released as singles, followed by becoming a part of Omar’s EP Every Night Fantasy, both hits contributed to a lot of glee throughout this summer, including fans choosing whether they were ‘Team Talk’ or ‘Team Bye Bye’ on social media. Our questionnaire about these shows concluded that these two were definitely popular amongst fans, with many saying that they were the best songs to hear live despite being unreleased at the time. 

As a matter of fact, Omar’s performance’s of these two songs at his June 1st show at the popular venue, Grӧna lund, in Stockholm, are some of the most noteworthy. I specifically remember how quickly the videos of ‘Talk’ began circulating online from this show, and how this performance had such a unique feeling to it that I’ve never felt watching any other live clip before - this is really one for the history books! 

 

Nominated for Grönan Live Act of the Year at Rockbjörnen 2024, this day is easily a fan-favourite, being described as, “special”, “energetic”, and a “life changing experience” by those who attended. Additionally, from our interviews it’s clear to see that Rudberg’s fans are no strangers to sentiment when recalling the best, and most memorable moments from this day. “Something I remember from Gröna is that it just felt incredible to be there,” states X user @simonl0ml. “Also, because it was such a big show for Omar, it felt amazing to get to witness him play that show” .

Furthermore, those attending Gröna Lund detailed that it was unforgettable as a result of a number of fan projects, including: signs held up during the song ‘Om du inte fanns’, coloured hearts, and also a Venezuelan flag given to Omar whilst he was on the stage. 

@CUNTBERQ (on X) from Gröna

There have been a number of different projects set up for a number of different shows, and each and every one has been incredible, intimate and heartwarming! From the School’s out show, June 11th, one fan mentioned a project during ‘It takes a fool to remain sane’ where the audience lifted bright, different coloured stars!

 

“Been having so much fun performing lately and I can’t wait to play even more shows!!”  - Omar Rudberg [via Instagram caption]


July 2nd marks the date of Omar Rudberg’s appearance on Sweden's televised sing-along show, Allsång på Skansen. On this day, he performed a cover of ABBA’s ”Mamma Mia” along with the audience, as well as his single ‘Red Light’. X user @minsimme expressed that ”Red Light live is truly something special”, and that due to his raw, emotional and powerful vocals, she was “in awe of his voice”, especially during this song. “This was my first time seeing Omar live, so it was such a special and memorable experience.” Personally, I think that ‘Red Light’ is one of the most incredible songs a person could ever have the pleasure of hearing live, due to Omar’s outstanding range - he truly has a gift; he was born for the stage.

@OMRZE (on X) from Allsång

Besides being an outstanding performer, Omar is a stylish one too, even winning ‘best dressed man’ at Ellegalen in 2023. This goes without saying that his concert outfits are always phenomenal. “I remember seeing his all-red outfit for the first time and thinking how beautiful he looked,” says user @minsimme regarding Rudberg’s outfit from Allsång, which was one of many impeccable ones from this time. 

But what makes an Omar Rudberg show stand out? What makes these shows different to every other concert in the industry? It’s not just Rudberg’s insane talent, or his gorgeous wardrobe, or even the faultless choreography - so what is it?

 For many fans, Omar’s shows are an outlet to feel like their true self, surrounded by the people that love and support them the most. The community that is brought together is one that is so rare and pure; it is something exclusive to an Omar show. A Rudberg concert is the perfect place to connect with other fans, resulting in life-long friendships that are like no other.

Along with getting to know new people, Omar Rudberg himself is known to take the time to talk with his fans, meeting some after his shows. This is the case for many, including X user @tina14jan, who attended Omar’s show at Trӓdgården Festival on August 24th. “At Trädgården, I met two of my now closest friends, and I also got to meet Omar after the show, so that day is always going to be very special for me,” she commented. It is clear that the beautiful sense of community here is shared between both fans and the artist - the love really is all around, and it shows. It is an environment that stands out from other artists’ fanbases: it feels like a family. 

If there’s one thing this family can do, it is be proud to support one another! @VxLana (on X) attended Omar’s Kulturkalaset show on August 29, in Gothenburg, and expressed to us how “Omar’s happiness on the stage,” was most important to them, and many others agree. I think it goes without saying that supporting one another, and Omar, is something this community accels at - it’s a wonderful atmosphere to be a part of.

“Okay next stop… MY FIRST EVER INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL GERMANY U READY” - Omar Rudberg [via X]



September 1st commemorates both Omar’s first solo show at an international festival and final show of the summer. He performed in Soltau, Germany at Heide Park Festival, where fans from all over the globe travelled to attend and celebrate this milestone in Rudberg’s career. 

@SILVYR_BEYOU (on X) from Heide Park

A unique charm that makes an Omar Rudberg show feel so “magical” and “breathtaking”, is down to the fans themselves, and the projects they produce - fan projects never go amiss at Omar’s shows! We had the pleasure of talking to one fan, out of a group of four, who contributed to a project from the Heide Park show. “We cut out 800 red hearts for Heide Park and passed them around before the concert. The hearts were held up for Red Light,” says X user @Silvyr_beyou. This group of fans dedicated their time to produce and implement this project to not only bring a sense of community to the show, but also as a way to appreciate and surprise Rudberg.

They continued by stating that, “Omars reaction, as well as the pictures and videos of the crowd, were absolutely amazing. It was very beautiful.” A good old fan project really pulls the whole show together. We are all so grateful for everybody who creates and carries out these projects, and we look forward to seeing future ones that may occur in the new year. We cannot wait to discuss them with you all! 

 

I can’t help but to reminisce over last summer and all of the gigs from it. It impacted all of us, even those who weren’t able to attend. A time so significant and extraordinary is one that shan’t be forgotten, and so the summer shows will always be remembered. 

 

One can only wonder what this year holds for us all in regards to live shows, such as the Every Night Fantasy tour, which begins next month. Perhaps this will also be a key period of time for us fans (most likely), just like the summer shows. I guess we will find out soon enough…

MERCH ALERT

 

2024 brought a lot of new and exciting opportunities as a fan and for Omar himself. It was a year of many highs: from Omar’s first solo show back in February of 2024, to his first solo tour in October - November 2024, as well as a summer spent touring festivals and shows across Sweden; Omar even made his first international festival debut September 2024 at Heidepark Festival. 

 

2024 also bought 6 new products from OMR beauty (with exciting teasing for more coming in 2025); It brought a new EP ‘Every Night Fantasy’, debuting under the international record label, Atlantic Records. And at the end of 2024, Omar announced a 19 stop tour across Europe, taking place February - early March 2025. Needless to say it was certainly a busy year for Rudberg and we certainly cannot wait to see what 2025 brings!

 

Alas with all these tours and new releases there was one thing that returned February of 2024. This was in fact, merch! 

 

The fandom had not received merchandise from Omar since the release of the Mi Casa Su Casa t-shirt during 2022, so this certainly was exciting! Merch was sold at stalls across the various shows, excluding the October fall tour, as well as available online for a period of time. 

 

Merch featured three styles (dependent on the shows) including: tote bags, hoodies and jumpers. Tote bags were limited however, only featuring for the exclusive Grönalund and general summer tour merch. 

After partnering with Jubel late 2023, shortly before announcing his solo show at Cirkus, Stockholm, Omar released a series of photos on Instagram featuring hoodies and t-shirts available to buy at Cirkus, as well as a link being sent out on social media following the concert, making the merch available to buy online.

 

 “Also… you asked and now you’ll be able to get your merch at Cirkus before the show starts!!” - Omar Rudberg [via instagram caption @officialomar]

 

The design itself is simple grey with red block writing. On the front features his name, ‘Omar Rudberg’, in the upper section of the top. The back features the full body pose of Omar, the same one was used for the Cirkus’s promotional poster. Along the top, Omar’s name is in a bigger font, using the same red block writing.

Across the bottom of the design, the date and location of the show is displayed, creating a simplistic yet eye-catching effect. 

 

The next merch line to be released was the summer shows merchline, featuring at stalls as well as online via the Jubel website for a limited time. Featuring both hoodies and t-shirts in a range of unisex sizes, there came a new addition to the summer tour merch which was the tote bag. This was first announced on the 24th May 2024 via Omar’s Instagram, followed by an Instagram post the following day in a series of promotional photos.

 

 

“Brand new merch is now LIVE! 😍 Hit the link in my bio to explore the collection and grab your favourites!! Don’t forget to tag me in your photos - I’d love seeing you all rock the new merch! 🫶” - Omar Rudberg [via instagram caption @officialomar] 

The design followed a similar style to the merch at Cirkus, however, it also contained slight differences: the style was a tan colour, with the hoodies being a darker shade of tan compared to the t-shirt and tote bag. Instead of the red block writing of the Cirkus merch, the summer show edition featured the same blocky font, but this time in white writing.

Along the front was the simple text ‘Omar Rudberg’ in his logo font. On the back, the same font featured once again but now enlarged, to cover the span of the back. This was then flipped vertically with the larger blocky font removed, leaving the shape of the white block writing. Layered on top of this was another promotional photo, this time of Omar’s side profile from the shoulder up. The simple design was once again minimal but effective!

@officialomar (on instagram)

Next up for fans to enjoy was an exclusive merchline for the Grönalund show on the 1st of June. Much like its predecessors, it followed the same design. The exclusive merchandise came in a range of white hoodies and t-shirts, available both online and at stalls on the concert date. Once again the tote bag made an appearance, following a similar design to the back of the merchandise. First announced on Omar’s instagram story via @officialomar, Rudberg posed in the mirror, showcasing the back, teasing the hoodie’s design.

 

“See you tomorrow at Gröna Lund 8pm!” - Omar Rudberg [via instagram story @officialomar]

@omarzcrown (on X)

The design was once again the simplistic style fans had fallen in love with. Following similar pattern styles, along the front was the classic ‘Omar Rudberg’ font in blocky red writing. Switching over to the back, the logo is once again displayed, yet now enlarged to span across the back of the merchandise.

Layered on top featured the ethereal promotional photo of Omar holding a bouquet of flowers. The bottom corner of the merch features the date and location of the Grönalund show, almost mimicking the Cirkus design. Once again fans fell in love with the captivating yet minimalistic design.

Come October, it was time for Rudberg’s first solo tour, spanning 6 shows across Europe and the US. With this came a new merchline. Unlike the previous merchlines, this included hoodies and t-shirts in both white and black options. Fans were obviously ecstatic! Rudberg first announced the merch following teasing posts on social media, via his Whatsapp number. 

 

“OKAY! NEW TOUR MERCH OUT FRIDAY (TOMORROW) AT 3PM CET! GET YOURS AND SEE YOU ON TOUR!” - Omar Rudberg [via Whatsapp]

The t-shirts had a more boxier and looser fit than merch released earlier in the year. Yet despite this, the design was exquisite. On the front was a repeat of the classic blocky logo of ‘Omar Rudberg’. On the back featured sections taken from a promotional photoshoot, cropped into three boxes across the back section, in the same pink colour as the text. The t-shirts featured the 6 tour dates written in various placements, connected with curved pink lines; this was not featured on the hoodies however. 

Rudberg, along with the designers, put so much effort into perfecting and creating merch that fans will love and cherish for years to come, this shows in each item released this past year. And if it’s anything like his other endeavours, you just know that Omar will not stop until he is satisfied!

@omraep (on X)

At the time of writing this article, new merch has just launched for the upcoming ‘Every Night Fantasy tour 2025’. The drop includes 4 new hoodies and two tote bags, as well as access to the previous 2024 fall tour merch. We can only hope there is a second launch to accompany what is already a fantastic drop (which is already being teased…)

 

Get your tickets and merch before it’s too late!
