Manila, August 2026 — Conrad Manila and The Amenity Studio have introduced new fragrance-inspired creations to Heures d’Orange, the sensory afternoon tea experience at C Lounge that explores the connection between fragrance, tea and cuisine.
Created in collaboration with The Amenity Studio and inspired by the Hermès Hôtelier Collection and selected Hermès fragrances, Heures d’Orange takes guests through a multi-sensory journey, beginning with fragrance and tea pairings before moving to savory and sweet creations inspired by the character of each scent.
This season’s new expressions feature Voyage d’Hermès and Eau de Basilic Pourpre, offering returning guests new flavors and fragrance combinations while retaining the sensory concept of the experience.
The afternoon tea journey begins with five fragrances paired with teas. Eau d’Orange Verte is matched with Earl Grey, while Eau de Basilic Pourpre is paired with Moroccan peppermint tea. Voyage d’Hermès comes with cardamom tea, Eau de Merveilles, presented as a wearable pendant, with chamomile, and Terre d’Hermès with sencha green tea.
The fragrance-inspired concept continues on the menu with new savory creations. Voyage d’Hermès is represented by crab meat with cardamom brown butter and brioche, while Eau de Basilic Pourpre features tomato, ricotta and basil tuile.
These join returning creations such as Un Jardin en Méditerranée, featuring duck prosciutto with fig-orange compote on brioche, and Twilly d’Hermès Eau Ginger, with tuna, ginger and savory crisps.
For dessert, Voyage d’Hermès is interpreted as a vanilla and cardamom cube with black pepper and citrus liquor glaze, while Eau de Basilic Pourpre takes the form of basil and lime crémeux. Returning selections include the Un Jardin sur le Nil mango rose macaron and Eau de Pamplemousse Rose grapefruit and thyme almond tartlet.
Freshly baked classic buttermilk scones and Eau d’Orange Verte orange-peel buttermilk scones complete the afternoon tea experience.
For The Amenity Studio, the collaboration demonstrates how fragrance can extend beyond a personal product and become part of a broader hospitality experience.
“What I love about Heures d’Orange is that it gives people a different way to discover fragrance. It’s not just about smelling a scent or taking a product home—it becomes part of an experience,” said Mitch Garcia-Arce, Managing Director of The Amenity Studio.
“With the new menu, we’re introducing new scents, new flavors, and new ways to enjoy that connection between fragrance and taste. That’s really what we want to do at The Amenity Studio: create experiences that make people see and enjoy fragrance differently,” she added.
Heures d’Orange is available daily at C Lounge, Conrad Manila, from 12 noon to 6 p.m. at P3,288++. For reservations, guests may call +63 2 8833 9999 or +63 917 650 3747.
Located on the third floor of Conrad Manila, The Amenity Studio offers a collection of fragrance and hospitality-inspired products, providing guests and visitors another avenue to experience modern luxury through scent and sensory discovery.
