Thanks to @Brett Sutton‘s post a couple of weeks ago I ordered some Mancera French Riviera as the weather is warming up here in Australia. I will give a quick review on it below. Mancera French Riviera is a standout warm-weather fragrance that opens with a vibrant, spicy-citrus burst. On application the pepper lifts the bright orange and tangerine notes, giving the opening a zesty, slightly piquant edge that is fresh, lively, and immediately inviting. As it settles, the composition softens into a breezy heart where sea-like accord and resinous pine mingle with earthy vetiver. This middle stage evokes sunlit coastal pines and wind off the water that comes across as clean, green, and slightly smoky, balancing the initial citrus sparkle. Later in the day the aquatic character deepens as a pronounced sea salt base note enhances the marine freshness, adding salty tang and realism. Warm sweet-amber facets then emerge, providing a gentle, rounded sweetness that cushions the composition. Then the amber’s soft, slightly musky warmth completes the scent, lending longevity and a sun warmed finish All in all this would be a damn fine addition to any collection.
