Fresh Mandarin: The new fragrance of Reminiscence
This independence gives it a spirit of innovation and extraordinary talent. Her first perfume "Rive Gauche" came out in 1971, and encouraged women to get rid of conventions. “Opium”, released in 1977, shocked public opinion because of its sulphurous name, and the risks of debauchery it could entail. In 2013, YSL presented “Manifesto l'Élixir”, a variation of the famous “Manifesto”, released a year earlier.
The Manifesto collection or feminine elegance at its peak
In 2012, YSL unveils "Manifesto", an ultra feminine fragrance, but not only. "Manifesto" is synonymous with the freedom of women today, a theme dear to the heart of the Parisian designer. “Manifesto” perfectly embodies the feminine independence of our time. Building on this success, the brand decided to create, a year later, a “Manifesto l'Elixir” version. Always so feminine, the latter turns out to be an even more mysterious and excessive fragrance than its elder. Between intensity and transparency, the “Manifesto l'Elixir” woman fuels all the wildest desires and sports a multi-faceted personality. The woman here is fascinating, mysterious and decidedly excessive. She combines luminosity and sensuality as if it were natural for her, to release so many emotions. The feminine elegance of the “Manifesto l'Elixir” woman is then at its peak,
The luminous notes of Manifesto l'Elixir
“Manifesto l'Elixir” is defined as an oriental vanilla. “Manifesto l'Elixir” begins with very fresh notes of bergamot and mandarin. The heart then develops a significant feminine opulence with the presence of sambac jasmine, tuberose and heliotrope. The trail is oriental and warm, its trail is composed of vanilla, ambroxan and ambergris, leaving an unforgettable scent on the skin. The bottle uses the codes of its elder. It thus resumes the belted silhouette, but dresses for the occasion in a bright purple color. Absolutely sublime, the bottle looks like a jewel cut like a multifaceted diamond. The whole is surmounted by a shiny gold cabochon, chiseled, like a piece of jewelry ... A real luxury item that we cannot get rid of.
The second part of the “Manifesto” collection, “Manifesto l'Élixir” is a fragrance that highlights women, their beauty, their shapes, like all the fragrances in the “Manifesto” collection. Nevertheless, this second opus is intended to be extremely bright, as if it was reflecting sunlight. Its composition oscillates between freshness and sensuality and its bottle is a jewel that we keep preciously like a rare pearl.
