Roja Parfums Manhattan Eau de Parfum — 100ml
Bold, smoky, and unexpectedly smooth—Manhattan is a woody oriental fragrance with aromatic citrus, soft florals, warm spice, tobacco, and a creamy coconut-vanilla base. It opens with bergamot, lavender, and basil: fresh, clean, and sharply tailored. The heart softens into Rose de Mai, jasmine de Grasse, heliotrope, violet, and coconut, giving the fragrance a floral-creaminess that feels plush rather than sweet. In the drydown, ginger, pink pepper, cinnamon, clove, patchouli, oakmoss, tobacco, vetiver, cedarwood, pine, benzoin, vanilla, and musk create a deep, textured trail that feels urbane, addictive, and seriously luxurious.

Why you’ll love it
The contrast is what makes it special: fresh aromatics up top, creamy florals in the middle, then a smoky-spiced tobacco base underneath.
The coconut, heliotrope, and vanilla give it a smoother, more indulgent feel than a typical woody-spicy scent.
Tobacco, cedarwood, patchouli, and spice make it feel bold and grown-up, but still polished and wearable. This wear impression is my interpretation of the official notes.
When to wear
Ideal for evenings, cooler weather, dinners, dressed-up occasions, and any time you want to smell confident, distinctive, and effortlessly expensive. This wear guidance is my recommendation based on the official note structure and Roja’s woody-addictive profile for the scent.
Size: 100ml Eau de Parfum.
