Manifesto Le Parfum Yves Saint Laurent for women

Why did they discontinued it? Just like ELLE INTENSE⁉️
This company did not respect the customers👎😠

OK, SO FIRST OFF let me tell you how upset I am that this is now a discontinued fragrance.
I have had this for years and used it sparingly because I didnt want to be without it.
This has such rich girl vibes, like I felt like a fake wearing it. I'm a tshirt wearing (when Im not sporting scrubs) sweat pants donning, sterling silver girl and when I wear this scent (no matter what attire I am in) I feel like a million bucks.
I placed in my review that it was more of a night time scent, and I stick by that but I wore it on special occasions such as my daughters graduation or a Sports banquet for one of my kids or to church but mostly wore it when I wanted a shot of happy ;)
*Stingy is how I would describe myself wearing it because I was careful to only spray it on my pulse points.
* The feeling of wearing this evokes happiness and an instant "yummy" bubble pops up inside my head
I ran out a few weeks back and was so heartbroken to hear it was discontinued.

I have one bottle of this gorgeous fragnance available, factory sealed, 50ml. If anyone is interested, pm.

Sweet and deep, addictive smell - bezoin, tonka beans, cinnamon, tiny bit of iris and jasmin, but mainly a new way to make them "sound" together. Sweet, dense, warm, wintery, gorgeous.

gorgeous perfume never smelled the original , but i love this one , maybe too sweet .
though the iris ruining it , but still beautiful one

This smells old but in a good way. I love it. The significant note for me here is jasmine and those woody notes. It’s warm, it’s cozy for me. IT LASTS FOR ETERNITY even though I sweat a lot and I live in a hot + humid country

ugh i really don't like the smell of this. it's cloying and headache inducing for me :( the performance is above average tho.

This is a more complex version of good girl by Carolina Harrera.. The bergamont adds a sparkle and it lacks the coffee and is replaced with a benzoin rezin depth. Its strong and if over sprayed could annoy co workers but when sprayed lightly is beautiful.. I didnt like it at first barbecue I connected it to an old lady scent or a chemical scent, which is the strong bergamont.. but with lighter spray it drys down to such a deep gorgeous vanilla! its addictive, complex, sexy and warm cuddly.

This was a blind buy based off reviews I read here, and because I think deb.martinez and I have similar taste. I like La Parfum, but I don’t love it. On me, the opening is reminiscent of Coca Cola. It must be the tonka, citrus, vanilla and benzoin notes causing that association, as I’ve had this happen with other perfumes in the past.

That said, I do like the drydown when the odd synthetic top note burns off. Sandalwood and iris work well together in the base, and I appreciate that there’s no uber sweet vanilla here (I love and detect a little dollop of vanilla, though not listed). It’s not sweet; it is dark and warm and perfect for chilly days.

Another reviewer mentions that this smells like amber. I agree, it reminds me of some mainstream amber sents, Alien Essence Absolue comes to mind. It’s not a note lineup, but there are similarities between them in initial application and performance.

I don’t know what the other flankers smell like, this is my first time sampling from the Manifesto foray. Really good performance too, not sure if others can detect it as I’ve only worn it once.

Manifesto. It’s a keeper but not a masterpiece.

Edit: I just realized that there’s some resemblance to another perfume I feel mediocre about: Olympéa by Paco Rabanne. The same perfumers worked on Manifesto too.

Edit 4.10: letting go of this, trading with deb.martinez!

Luxurious, dark, charming Perfume.
Exclusive for elite.

A powdery, creamy vanilla. Overall, the ingredients combined create this almost sweet milk kind of scent. This is perfect for dressed up/glamorous nights. It has a BEASTLY sillage and longevity, but still manages to stay elegant and not at all cloying. In my top 3 <3

a tad old lady but also opulent and addictive.. a secret pleasure although I wouldn't wear it to impress others... but on my own time I do enjoy :)

I swapped away my Manifesto and Manifesto Elixir but Manifesto Le Parfum is a huge love for me and one of my top favorites.they all have a similar gene but Le Parfum is the richest.it's deep,warm,opulent,seductive,creamy,balmy and powdery.the original Manifesto didn't agree with me,there was a hint of something green,clean and sourish in it that ruined it for me.I liked the Elixir one and if I could go back in time,I would'nt give it away.it's cashmere was very prominent on me and made it a bit too dry,It always made me think of a sophisticated and elegant bussinus woman wearing it at bussiness meetings and her office.but Le Parfum is that lady wearing somekey eye makeup and freeing her hair on shoulder at a date night,still luxurious also supersexy.
When first sprayed I can pickup something fruity like a blend of bergamot and blackcurrent and jasmine,it reminds me of Clinique Aromatic in Black(another favorite),the same sultry,slightly grape-like jasmine rounded by warm and sweet,balmy notes.I haven't tried them side by side but I think I like MLP even more because unlike Clinique In Black which goes towards a smokey,vetiver-woody drydown Manifesto Le Parfum settles down to a creamy-woody scent with tones of powder,vanilla and tonka.I can't stop sniffing my hand when I spray it and I don't know how could I own this amazing perfume for two years and never crave it,now I feel I can't live without it.it's iris-grownup vanilla,tonka-jasmine blend is to die for.one of rare perfumes I'd happily repurchase and would choose as my winter signature if I wasn't a perfumeaddict
It's definitely a cold weather/night perfume.very good longevity and sillage.one of the best Yves Saint Laurent's perfumes
if you're looking for a very womanly and sexy perfume make sure to try this one

Yummy!!! I initially smell vanilla (which isn't mentioned in the notes) but beautifully rounded with soft flowers jumping in the background, gently easing toward the foreground. Long lasting on my skin, which I love. Another huge compliment getter,,,yet I cannot smell this on myself. I believe perfumes you can't smell on your own skin, must be perfect for you. Mon Guerlain does that to me too. I'll use Manifesto Le Parfum sparingly as I don't see it around that much anymore.

Very similar middle and base notes with those from Amo by Ferragamo!

Creamy and dreamy - it's freakin' heaven in a bottle. It belongs in the Manifesto family (you can tell they're all related) but the tonka/sandalwood/benzoin combo in le parfum is just amazing. I think this is what I've always wanted "amber" perfumes to smell like (but this isn't what they ever smell like since this isn't exactly an "amber" scent - it's a really opulent vanilla scent hovering somewhere on the edge of an amber accord) and I wasn't looking for a new favorite but I found one. Anyway, can't recommend this one enough if you are a vanilla or tonka lover and if your taste leans to the sweet side like mine does. I also generally enjoy powder (more powdery than L'elixir) and you still get a hint of the fruity/black current from the original so this really ticks a lot of boxes for me. I prefer this one and L'elixir but I have obsessively purchased all 4 versions of Manifesto and like them all. Le Parfum lasts about 4 to 6 hours on my skin.

I finally got my Manifesto Le Parfum! In my collection I have both the original and the elixir and I can say that there is a similarity shared by all three. The parfum is a cross between the original and the elixir. Only that I think Le Parfum is more powdery and creamy, almost milky. I can not decide which I prefer because basically I like all three. Perhaps Manifesto l'Elixir has a nuance that I like best. Persistence and sillage between L'Elixir and Le Parfum are the same.
The Pyramid exact it should be this:
top note: green agreement, the agreement pear, bergamot
Heart: absolute of jasmine, lily of the valley, creamy agreement
base note: absolute of iris, tonka bean absolute, essence of sandalwood, benzoin

I love, love, love it! I feel great when I wear this perfume. Very long lasting same as Manifesto L`Elixir. How wonderful series Manifesto, thank you YSL.

Well, this is my second experience with this perfume. The first time, I used a sample, which, probably, was not so good. Now, I just received a bottle from France, and this is how it goes: the first sniff is strong (certainly the mix of benzoin and iris), but then, the CREAMY tonka and sandalwood kick in a soft powdery magnificent way. But I would not say that it falls under the "gourmands" category. It is really powdery, past the two first minutes; It is actually a bit different from the Elixir, that is sweeter and less powdery.
Being a fan of Manifesto, here is, I think the depth level/main feeling of the ones I have, starting with the lowest one:
1- L'Eclat (greenest)
2- Manifesto original (clean vanilla)
3- Manifesto l'Elixir (sweeter vanilla)
4- Le Parfum (strongest, deepest, richest).
All are from the same family, no doubts, but different in their own way :)
I have a preference for the original Manifesto and l'Elixir. But Le Parfum is a keeper!
LOVE, LOVE LOVE!

Blind bought this because I tried the L'Elixir version and loved it (it was the only version in store) but it had a tendency to turn to Play-doh on me, like a lot of vanillas. I'm not quite as keen on this tbh I'm slightly disappointed, it is nice, but it seems a little cold and I wanted it for winter.. I wish there was some way of stopping the Play-doh thing! That said, this has grown on me a bit throughout the day. It is very very similar to E'Elixir, just no vanilla so not quite as warm and sweet. That chilly iris takes over..
Just realised this reminds me of Giorgio Armani Lei. It has a similar cold yet cosy feel. It's not a dupe, just has some echoes.

Great lasting-power :)
Very nice indeed if you like warm,woody, powdery scents.
i love it, it is luxurious:)

Oh how much I wanted to love the original manifesto, but it was a sore disappointment.. The initial opening smell of Manifesto Le Parfum is a replica of the original Manifesto (boring linear concentrated vanilla tonka jasmine tangerine concoction)..
After the opening vanishes, a much better smell arrives (creamy jasmine vanilla - not headache inducing - with subtle woody hints) that stays on for hours while slightly decreasing its silage as time goes by, but that is okay

This is what Manifesto should have been

Bought mine from Holland via ebay for over $100 in 2016 and was super happy because it is almost impossible to find it in US. =( I think Le Perfume is the best among all manifesto. Cannot be compared with original manifesto (i have both) I am in love! 1 spray is more then enough.

I don't have the other manifesto fragrances, but to me, "le parfum" is a unique, luxurious, well balanced scent! Very beautiful and classy perfume,love it!

Got some samples, fell in love. Can't get it anywhere, anyhow. If someone is looking to part with one please message me. =) I tried ordinary Manifesto and L'Elixir and they're not the same to me; while nice enough they feel like daytime safe for office scents when I wear them while Le Parfum would be a date night choice.

It isnt that different from the other versions really, the top notes smell great, kind of a rich floral, but turns powdery real fast and then it is exactly like the first version, with a warm sweet base. I expected more, more depth, more silage, and the top notes kind of promise a dense pretty scent, not so, so not really for me, the powdery vibe is a bit much, and soft..I might still get a 30 ml as it isn't easy to find, and it is very feminine, and womanly..I don't see the point of getting this one though if you already have an earlier version!?

Got a tiny sample of this and it's instant LOVE!!

It's subtle, it's gorgeous but it's still THERE for you to enjoy. I feel super feminine and beautiful wearing this. The jasmine and iris are blended superbly to the point that you can hardly tell them apart.

This is one of the more rich and luxurious fragrances I've ever had the pleasure of finding and I do believe, since I've upgraded to a full bottle, that I'm making this my Thanksgiving perfume. I'll only wear this in the month of November then give it a break to wear my chosen Christmas perfume next month.
This way I can break out this beautiful concoction next year and let the wonderful holiday memories flood back to me! :)

If you're a fan of Manifesto, I'm sure you're going to love this. I sprayed it on the back of my hand and many hours and several hand-washes later and I can still smell it. Great lasting-power! Very nice indeed if you like warm, powdery scents. Personally, I tend to struggle with Iris and overly powdery notes, and the Iris note in this is very strong. For that reason, it's sadly not my cup of tea. It's quite a mature scent and even though it's not really my thing, I would still say that this is an excellent fragrance. Highly recommended for the cooler seasons. And the bottle looks absolutely gorgeous!

Ce parfum ne m'est pas encore parvenu aux narines mais par pitié ! Faites qu'il ne soit pas un parfum gourmand !!!
Je rêve d'un floral poudré par l'iris et le benjoin de grande classe de la même trempe que Cinéma (dans le registre floriental) qui est devenu mon parfum référence.

I got Le Parfum today and I must say it is utterly beatiful! At first it smelled very similar to l'Elixir but after about ten minutes Le Parfum develops into a strong sweet delightful fragrances with the most amazing note of iris which gives the fragrance a touch of luxury make up smell.
I also get a gorgeous chocolate like note and the overall feeling is that of a luxury fragrance.
Great sillage and good longevity best for night time wear since it is quite heavy

On me this smells just like the l'exilir one. For a moment or two I got a new creamy note but that's about it. I do enjoy the l'exilir, better than the original and the eclair. I've had all of them in the past but this one and the l'exilir are my favourites. For me, I don't this one in addition.
Will try again just to be sure tho:)

after having bought Manifesto l'Elixir (for winter)and Manifesto L'Eclat (for spring and summer), this one is fantastic. Not too strong. Classy.

Yes, it is definitely a member of the Manifesto family, but not the same kind. All of them has a different lead motive/ note.
Here we have the plushiest iris note i ever smelled. I love Iris very much and sometimes it can be a little dusty in his powderiness. Not so here.
Soft, silky-plushy, snuggly and soft.
Nice vanilla, still strong but not overpowering like in the others Manifestos. Balmy. Almost a milky chocolate taste on my tongue- funny experience...
Strong but also soft - perfect. Sexy.
In Summer - just use with caution - that is not a shy one !!!
Als spokesperson redhead i would prefer Christina Herndricks then Jessica Chastain - this fragrance ist for real , hot redblooded women...
For me the best and charmiest of all Manifestos !

bought at the airport for my sister,its the same Manifesto maybe slighty stronger

Looks great! I want that one. Heavy and dense I believe. Like compressed concentrated warm and creamy ! Love the bottle.
