Manifesto
Eau de Parfum
Isabella Rossellini
Compact early-2000s celebrity line built around the green floral scent Manifesto.
Isabella Rossellini is a small celebrity fragrance line created by the Italian-born actress and model Isabella Rossellini. After a long association with the French cosmetics house Lancôme, where she worked as a spokesmodel and participated in the development of the fragrance Trésor around 1990, she lent her name and creative input to her own perfumes. The brand’s best known release is Manifesto, also referred to as Manifesto Rossellini, an eau de toilette for women introduced in 2000.
Manifesto is frequently described by retailers as a green-floral scent that aims to express themes of nature, spontaneity and understated glamour. Distribution has been limited compared with major designer houses, and the line has remained compact, with only a handful of scents appearing on specialist perfume databases and discount sites. The perfumes are now harder to find, often surfacing mainly through grey-market retailers and resale platforms rather than broad mainstream distribution.
Because the range is small and centered on a single flagship fragrance launched in 2000, Isabella Rossellini as a perfume brand is best understood as a focused, early-2000s celebrity project linked closely to the public persona and aesthetic of its founder rather than a fully developed, still-expanding house.
A celebrity, mid house known for green floral compositions.
The Isabella Rossellini fragrance line has remained small, with Manifesto/Manifesto Rossellini as its key release from 2000. Unlike many celebrity brands that expand into numerous flankers and seasonal editions, this line did not develop into a large portfolio. Over time, distribution has shifted from mainstream retail toward discount outlets and resale platforms, making it more of a niche interest for collectors than a living, regularly updated brand.
This is a modest, largely legacy celebrity line built around a single green floral signature. Worth seeking out if you enjoy understated early-2000s perfumery, but availability and modern relevance are limited.
