Mancera’s latest fragrance, CINQUE TERRE, is a poetic tribute to the untamed beauty of the Italian Riviera. Inspired by the iconic villages of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore, the scent captures the essence of where sun-drenched cliffs meet the sea.
The journey begins with a sparkling duo of Italian rosemary and Amalfi lemon, opening with a burst of aromatic freshness and Mediterranean vibrance. From there, a heart of white cedar, Mediterranean pine, and fig leaves creates a green, textured layer—evoking sea-breeze walks through pine-fringed paths and hillside gardens.
The drydown is grounded in warmth and depth. Sea salt, amber, tonka bean, and sandalwood unfold into a long-lasting base that feels sun-kissed yet grounding—like golden light dancing on stone walls at sunset.
While many fragrances nod to coastal themes, CINQUE TERRE stands apart in its composition. This is not simply “fresh” or “woody.” It’s terrain rendered olfactively—layered, atmospheric, and emotionally transporting. Each note tells a chapter of the Italian coastline: from crisp mornings and lemon groves to twilight air laced with salt and sun-warmed timber.
For those drawn to authentic elegance and sensory storytelling, CINQUE TERRE offers a refined escape—bottled, balanced, and undeniably Mediterranean.
