Manta

Inspired by the Greenlandic coastline, where ocean light meets shadow, MANTA by Arpa captures a sensation of submersion and quiet force — like drifting under the wing of a manta ray.

The fragrance opens with the crisp, green bitterness of petit grain and orange peel, before descending into a warm heart of ambrette seed and sacred frankincense. Anchored in vetiver and cedarwood, MANTA glows from below — mineral, meditative, and elemental.

The bottle is encased in a cast glycerin shell, designed by Barnabé Fillion and Brian Thoreen, and hand-blown by Jochen Holz. The case can be placed in your space to diffuse a gentle ambient scent. Over time, its shape and hue shift — evolving in dialogue with its surroundings.

MANTA is movement suspended. A scent that holds light beneath the surface.
