Les 5 sens d’Eros (The Five Senses of Eros) opens the Tabou Éditions trilogy that takes its name from this first volume, with a collection of nine short stories exploring physical intimacy through the human senses. Each story acts as a playful vignette centred around how taste, sight, hearing, smell, and touch spark desire and romantic connection. Manunta uses a soft, gentle art style to balance explicit themes with a surprisingly innocent, almost dreamlike atmosphere.

Before being collected as a French edition, these short stories originally circulated in the late 1990s in the Italian adult comic magazines Selen and Blue.
