MANNY
“Some men don’t need fangs to be dangerous.”
Manuel “Manny” Manello walked into the world of the Brotherhood as something of an anomaly.
A gifted surgeon with steady hands, a stubborn streak, and enough confidence to hold his own among a mansion full of vampires, Manny possesses a connection to their world that runs deeper than he ever knew. But what defines him isn't what may be in his blood.
It's what he chooses to do with the life that's his.
A human among warriors. A healer in a house of killers. And the male who proved more than capable of loving a female as powerful as Payne without ever needing to diminish her fire.
His fragrance captures that same balance of control and hidden heat.
Dark coffee and whiskey open with a rich, addictive warmth, calling to mind long nights, impossible hours, and the surgeon who refuses to quit until the job is done. Black amber adds depth and masculinity, while clean linen cuts through the darker notes with a crisp, controlled edge.
Warm sandalwood grounds the fragrance before smoke settles underneath, leaving behind a darker warmth that lingers close to the skin.
Dark. Smooth. Controlled. Addictive.
This is the scent of a man who doesn't need to bare his teeth to prove his strength, and never needed immortality to stand beside a warrior.

MADE BY SOUTHERN NOVELSCENTS
Every Southern NovelScents fragrance is custom created and blended in-house to capture the character, story, trope, or world that inspired it.
Manny's fragrance blend is exclusive to Southern NovelScents, and each product is handcrafted in small batches with carefully selected, high-quality ingredients.
Our fragrance oils are phthalate-free and selected for safe use in their intended applications when products are used as directed.
Because our wax products are handcrafted using natural wax, slight variations such as frosting, texture changes, or minor surface imperfections may occur. These are completely normal and do not affect fragrance performance.
CANDLE CARE
For candle purchases only:
Your first burn matters. Allow the melted wax to reach the edges of the vessel during the first burn to help establish an even burn pattern and prevent tunneling.
• Trim wick to approximately ¼ inch before each burn
• Allow a full melt pool to form on the first burn
• Do not burn longer than 4 hours at a time
• Keep away from drafts, children, and pets
• Never leave a burning candle unattended
PROCESSING & SHIPPING
• Each item is handcrafted by Southern NovelScents
• Please allow up to 2 weeks for processing, although most orders ship much sooner
