The Story

Manila is a rich, spicy oriental that captures the warmth of the Philippines. It opens with a burst of pink pepper and saffron, then settles into a floral heart of jasmine and rose. The base is a deep, resinous blend of oud, amber, and leather. This is a bold, confident scent that lasts all day.
