A YSL Manifesto alternative search usually comes from someone who enjoys a floral fragrance with contrast: tart black currant and green notes above jasmine, then a warm vanilla-tonka and woody base. The result can feel lively at the beginning and more enveloping later.

Quick answer
Look for a genuine balance of green brightness, white floral character and vanilla warmth. ABZU Manifesto Eau De Parfum is ABZU’s own 100ml fragrance in this broad green-floral-vanilla direction. Read its listed notes and wear it before deciding whether it belongs in your collection.
The reference scent direction
YSL’s Manifesto Eau de Parfum description highlights a floral heart with vanilla and woods. A product name can cover different formats across markets and years, so this guide refers specifically to the Eau de Parfum profile rather than making a blanket statement about all releases.

What to look for in this family
- Black currant and bergamot: add tart fruit and citrus lift.
- Green notes: give a crisp, leafy impression.
- Jasmine and lily-of-the-valley: form a bright floral centre.
- Vanilla, tonka and woods: supply warmth and structure.
ABZU Manifesto: listed profile
ABZU Manifesto lists black currant, bergamot and green notes; jasmine sambac and lily-of-the-valley; and vanilla, tonka, cedar and sandalwood. It is a 100ml Eau De Parfum with ABZU’s documented 40% perfume oil concentration. The listed profile is for a customer who enjoys floral warmth but wants a fresher opening than a purely sweet scent.

Choosing the moment
Green floral vanilla can transition well from a late afternoon occasion to dinner. Start with a light application and reassess after the base notes emerge. If you are building a varied collection, our fragrance-wardrobe guide can help you compare roles for fresh, floral and deeper scents.
