Mancera Holidays

Mostly sugary and rounded, closer to dessert than to fruit. Underneath that, creamy and sweet, with a suncream quality.

It opens on coconut and bergamot, moves through tiare flower, ylang-ylang and sea notes, and settles on vanilla pod, sandalwood and white musk.

• coconut: creamy and sweet, with a suncream quality
• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
