The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Savant Manhattan Cherry by Chris Collins is a fragrance that captures the essence of New York City's urban sophistication. Launched in 2025 and crafted by perfumer Alexis Grugeon, this composition opens with the bright burst of black cherry and whiskey before settling into a warm spicy heart of cinnamon and clove. The base notes of leather, oak, patchouli, and vetiver create an earthy contrast that adds depth and complexity to the overall profile.

This fragrance is not just about individual notes but how they blend together to evoke a distinct mood — one that feels both modern and lasting.

How to wear it

Apply Savant Manhattan Cherry with a light hand — the black cherry and whiskey top notes are bright but fleeting. The warm spicy heart and earthy base will develop gradually over time, so one or two sprays are sufficient to ensure a balanced wear throughout the day.
