A fruity explosion of apple, pineapple, peach, grapefruit, mandarin orange, and bergamot forms the top notes, softened with a floral blend of ylang-ylang, violet, rose, and jasmine. At the base of Sicily lies a rich fusion of white musk and woody notes. This perfume is perfect to wear on a summer’s day somewhere exotic. 9. Roses Greedy image source The hazelnut, dark chocolate, fruits and vanilla go hand-n-hand. Sure, it's sweet. Sure, it's stands out. Sure, this scent is dope enough to make you think it's brother Chocolate Greedy is the rival, but it's not. Though they're similar, CG by Montale leans more baked cookie-ish where CV leans more wearable for any occasion. Inspired by the nostalgia and familiar flavors found in a cafe atmosphere and setting, Aoud Cafe; Mancera is an amber vanilla perfume designed for both men and women. Aoud Cafe was launched in 2013, having been crafted by top perfumer Pierre Montale. Launched in 2016, Holidays Mancera is a versatile and optimistic fragrance designed for both men and women. Inspired by the beach and sea of a holiday setting, designer Pierre Montale crafted this serene and fresh scent. Base notes of vanilla pod, sandalwood, and white musk are smooth and woody, while top notes of coconut and bergamot are nutty and light. At the heart of this scent is a floral blend of jasmine and patchouli, which forms a gentle contrast to the spiced, woody top notes of nutmeg, saffron, incense, agarwood, and cinnamon with fruity hints of white pear and green apple. 3.

yeah yeah, a few... My carry-on was just full of candy. I had to take almost 5 kilos of chocolate with me, the remaining 3 kilos went for gingerbread and coffee... the customs officer already knew with a smile that I had sweets with me, because apparently all Turks do this... :DD This scent is truly magnificent. I'm not feeling the pronounced violet, but everything else is amazing and timely.

Aoud Vanille is an amber fragrance designed by Pierre Montale for both men and women, characterized by the strong and refined essence of vanilla. Launched in 2015, this scent works beautifully when worn in the colder autumnal and winter months. Some wearers comment that this scent is evocative of the charms of the Christmas season. Actually, it's not so "klaro" when you think about whether the combination of chocolate and violet in a perfume works together. Chocolate, after all, suggests that Mancera Choco Violette would be a gourmand perfume, with the powdery and floral accords of violet.

Anyway, this scent is also successful here and smells very tasty, even if it should weaken a little in the heart note. There are better chocolate scents, but this one is also worth a test, especially if you don't want the scent to smell 100% like chocolate. The question is, of course, when and why one could wear such a scent, as chocolate is a rather unusual scent. Maybe it is suitable for going out? Or maybe it's just for your own leisure time, if you don't want to eat a lot of chocolate and enjoy it more olfactorically (which I wouldn't recommend, because it really makes you hungry...!) Inspired by the sunny landscape and fruits growing in Sicily, Sicily Mancera is a zesty perfume for both women and men, characterized by strong citrus notes. Launched in 2016, Sicily was fashioned by top perfumer Pierre Montale. Creamy base notes of sandalwood, white musk, oakmoss, and Madagascar vanilla give depth and longevity, while middle notes of amberwood, Egyptian jasmine, Indonesian patchouli leaf, and Morrocan Rose are sensual in complexity, reflecting the tapestry of locations where Mancera’s Pierre Montale explored on his travels. 5.

Deep, mysterious base notes of musk, vetiver, leather, vanilla, and amber blend beautifully with seductive chords of patchouli, Egyptian jasmine, and agarwood at the heart of this scent. The top notes are fruity and aromatic in flavor, with zesty hits of pepper, coriander, mandarin orange, lemon, and almond. 6. Velvet Vanilla image source Anyway, the smell is quite nice and therefore worth a test. And with that I've come to the end of my comment and I'll end my comment with wishing you all a nice evening :) The notorious and highly regarded Mancera perfume house was born in 2008 and began through a collaboration between Pierre Montale, a refined perfumer and traveler of the far east, and his daughter Amelie, a photographer and visual artist. The Mancera fragrance/ perfume brand is influenced by the purity and geometry of art deco design, which can be seen in the crystalline boxes which hold the perfumes. By the way, you can already imagine that especially in the later base, after many many hours, the fragrance smells most like vanilla, maybe with a little bit of floral sweetness.
