Founded in Paris in 2008 by Pierre Montale, Mancera was born from a family project carried out with his daughter Amélie. The perfumer combines his experience with oriental ingredients and a graphic vision inspired by Art Deco. In 2017, Amélie became the brand's artistic director and helped shape the identity of the house, now based in a Parisian boutique shared with Montale.
Mancera brings French elegance together with oriental inspirations. Precious woods, oud, flowers, spices and vanilla are crafted into generously concentrated compositions with a distinctive trail. The aesthetic is built around pure forms, geometry and bottles with Art Deco accents, designed as visual objects as much as olfactory ones.
Right now at Fragsplit, 3 Mancera fragrances are available as 1 to 10 ml decants: Roses Vanille, Instant Crush, Black to Black.
