The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2014, Manifesto L’Eclat by Yves Saint Laurent is a sophisticated Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by perfumers Anne Flipo and Loc Dong. It opens with the freshness of currant buds and green tea, giving way to an aromatic heart filled with bergamot, neroli, jasmine, orange blossom, freesia, and red rose. The base notes of vanilla, tonka bean, cashmere wood, and sandalwood add a warm, enveloping finish that feels both modern and lasting.

How to wear it

One or two sprays are sufficient as this fragrance develops gradually on skin. The aromatic top notes can fade within a couple of hours, but the base notes provide lasting warmth throughout the day.
