What does Manhattan (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

In the top, bergamot, lavender and basil give a fresh start. The heart builds a floral body from May rose, heliotrope, violet and Grasse jasmine, while coconut pulls it toward a creamy, gourmand tone. In the base, tobacco, vanilla and musk lead, with cinnamon, clove and ginger adding spice and cedarwood and vetiver a woody backdrop.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and it suits evenings and nights out best. Voters lean toward reading it as masculine, though it remains unisex. Casamorati Bouquet Ideale and Roja Parfums Ti Amo have a close profile.
