The review
Manifesto scores 6.5 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Manifesto.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Manifesto's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 it costs 79% less than Manifesto.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Palermo Perfumes publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Yves Saint Laurent Manifesto is blackcurrant, bergamot and green notes at first, jasmine and lily of the valley at its heart and Tonka Bean, vanilla and cedar at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- blackcurrant
- bergamot
- green notes
Heart
- jasmine
- lily of the valley
Base
- Tonka Bean
- vanilla
- cedar
Green blackcurrant into a big jasmine, landing on soft tonka and vanilla.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
