Tropical Kiss

* Beautiful mango forward fruit fragrance * Powerful blend of sweet, mango, floral, herbal and vanilla aromas * Insanely strong performer * Niche quality and then some * Great for female users * Great for those who love fruit fragrances * Great for social occasions and outdoor activities * Beautiful presentation * Lacks the fresh notes of Polo Black and the woody powdery notes of Ajayeb Dubai Portrait * Lacks other gourmand notes * Not good for older users * Not for those who dislike sweet or fruity fragrances * May lean far,far too feminine for some male users Fragrance World's Tropical Kiss is part of their higher end French Avenue line and is a clone of Stephanie Humbert Lucas 777 Soleil de Jeddah - Mango Kiss. Straight up, this thing is a POWERHOUSE. Not a word you would think of to describe a fruit DNA fragrance but hear me out. Here's a true anecdote on how powerful this fragrance is. I sprayed it on at 9:15 AM in my one bedroom apartment bathroom with the door open. At 11 AM, a friend walked in and immediately asked me who sprayed the perfume around in the living room. It was radiating so strongly off of both myself and out of the open bathroom that it filled the entire room. This is a ridiculously strong performer. You may as well be growing a mango tree in your home. It's a powerful blend of sweet, mango, herbal and floral aromas with a touch of vanilla on the drydown. This is niche quality and then some. Fruit fragrance lovers are going to go berserk over this. Performance is obviously top-notch, this is great for female users and will work wonder during social occasions and outdoor activities. Do note that, somewhat ironically due to its own power and high quality, this will lean far, far too feminine for many male users. It lacks other notes to help make it stand out that other mango fragrances have, such as the fresh notes of Polo Black or the woody and powdery notes of Ajayeb Dubai Portrait that would help make it more appealing to men. To be fair, though, this is true of most fruity DNA fragrances. You have to be really confident as a man to wear either fruity or floral fragrances and this is both. Otherwise, gift it to a special woman in your life. Either way, this is highly, highly recommended.

I wasn't sure what exactly to expect since I have never tried original Mango Kiss, but I love how different this scent is compared to any other tropical perfumes that I have had. It isn't sweet and the Mango comes on as powdery warmth, not so much fruity. The use of chamomile in particular drew me in, it's not common in the types of perfumes that I wear regularly, and appreciate the herbal tea vibes it brings. I don't typically care for ylang ylang and usually cannot stand orange blossom, but they work in this scent and do not overpower other notes. It smells lovely and cohesive right out of its beautiful, high quality presentation box. I do not feel that it has to age, as some Arabian perfumes do. These are just my opinions, but I love this herbal/tropical scent and feel like it was a very successful blind buy. It makes me feel like I'm sniffing the air at a very exclusive and magical resort with lots of fresh cut tropical floral arrangements, herbal teas, and warm woods. It's definitely unisex, especially in the dry down. I will wear this a lot over the summer and really want to find a minty scent to put with it when it gets to the height of summer heat here.

With the recent popularity of fruity oud scents, I have tried quite a few (bought decants and minitures) and didn't see the hype or at least a need to own a FB of those fruity ouds. I'm also Abit averse to sweet gourmands and find it doesn't suit my palate despite trying and testing quite many. This came at half a price of a 5ml mango kiss decant for me so why not try it instead. For this dna, at least now I see why mango kiss is that popular. It's quite a nice wearable mango, Abit dry that opens up well with the orange blossom. The floras in the heart complement the opening well. I feel the sweetness is just nice, not sticky sweet. What many can look forward to is also a very nice Ambery vanilla drydown with the orris, quite a good scent overall, a very wearable one without oud which happens to be in many fruity scents now. Since the granddaddy of mango scent, polo Edt there has been quite many mango scent releases but hit and run. This alternative to mango kiss isn't too bad.

At first I didn't like it at all. There was a strange note at the beginning as if it was spoiled and I haven't used it for almost a year. Today I put it on in the morning before work and wow! What a wonderful scent it has become! It's not as juicy mango as my other mango perfumes and I wouldn't even say I smell mango. Ok, it's a bit fruity. But this chamomile gives it such a specialty in combination with iris. Fruity, powdery, soft, green, dry. I really can't describe it exactly how special it is. Longevity is incredible! Such a beast! And it's not suffocating and not heavy. After 12 hours I could still smell it on myself. So many people at work complimented me on the scent today and they said it was so strong and felt so far away. What's really fascinating to me is the longevity and strength of those cheap fragrances and how I always get the most compliments on them. But when I put on expensive, real niche perfumes I rarely get compliments and they don't last. Unbelievable.

I bought Tropical Kiss at Vinted for 15 euros, it's already matured by my seller who opened it by Christmas... so she saved her from the usual holidaysinthecloset-welcome I give to all my newbies. Smells to me like if a smoking woman ate a ripe mango on a beach. Not too sweet, there's some refreshing herbal note there.. It's so well balanced! Perfect for me. I loved this beauty! So far, I really, really, really like most of French Avenue perfumes. They smell so good -not cheap at all (after closet sitting a few weeks)- and the quality of their bottles and presentation is jaw dropping. Lol I sound like an influencer, but I'm not! It's my super honest opinion as I have perfumes of all kinds and makers. This fragrance is super wearable in spring but I think it's perfect for summertime, it gives me the vibes of an afternoon on the riverside drinking a mojito!

This is a spot on dupe for Soleil de Jeddah - Mango Kiss Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777. After wearing this for a few weeks I had the opportunity to wear Soleil de Jeddah for a few days and I have to confess that there is only a miniscule difference in the dry down. The original is maybe a little bit more spicy and less linear, but not enough to justify the price difference. Tropical Kiss is a LOVE for me and it is an excellent summer scent. It is a juicy, ripe mango scent complimented by the coconut, camomile and spicy notes. Very uplifting. The projection and longevity = fantastic. It is a compliment getter. If you love mango scents - this is a no-brainer.

A slightly dry spicy mango. The dryness and hint of bitterness comes from the chamomile. There is a hint of vanilla and ylang ylang but it is not a super sweet fragrance. Someone here called it a fruity chypre and I agree, but this is the twist in this fragrance that makes it smell very niche and expensive. This is very unisex. Would smell amazing on either man or woman. This fragrance would be a banger in summer....no sticky sweetness to make it cloying in the heat. It's very intriguing and sexy. Good for both day time or warm sexy summer night.

I don't usually like fruity fragrances but this is really good. I blind bought it and I absolutely love it. The mango smell does not smell herbal(from unripe mango skin), it smells like ripe mango skin. It's a true tropical, summery fragrance. I spray tested it on my wrist at work when I first got it and got a ton of complements from both genders. If you like gourmand scents,(or fruity) you will absolutely love this. Update: It doesn't last long.

Its a luxury tropical vacation vibes scent Dry mango & orange blossom very pronounced on the opening, on the dry down vanila & coconut fullfill the body for the depth. Performance slightly above average, but for this kind of scent profile really value for money Once you smell this, it will make you want to smell it more unconsciously.. Scent : 9/10 Performance : 8/10

Instantly in love with this. It's fresh, sweet but not too sweet, green but not too green. And then when it starts to dry down, it sweetens and mellows, but doesn't lose strength. It smells EXPENSIVE and I would have thought it was niche if I smelled it on someone else first. Such a great summer day/night scent. Love it.

Se parfum est vraiment incroyable. Je vois qu'il est dit que c'est pour femme, désolée mais je porte se parfum, j'aime l'odeur sucré de la mangue, les fleurs blanches qui adoucissent le parfum. J'aime beaucoup se parfum, idéal pour le printemps l'été ou même l'odeur, ressort plus avec la chaleur. 10/10

I kind of forget about her, and not wear her. And today i wanted to wear a niche mango spiced chamomille sent. It's so beautiful. So Nichy, very good projection and longivity. Got wips of her all day. Don't know the inspiration but don't need to spend that much when Tropical Kiss is so Perfection 👌💜

This perfume is gorgeous , the mango scent is so natural, juicy and sweet. There is absolutely not a single synthetic note coming from this fragrance. This fragrance is well balanced with the oils, good for sunny days and projects beast mode

It is a sweet fruity chamomile. If you have Ajayeb Dubai, then you don’t need this. If you are hasitant about which one is better to buy, then take this one. It is more lovely, balanced an well done

One of my favorite mango scents very nice floral juicy mango with some coconut leans slightly feminine but still very unisex projection is also pretty good lasts 5-6 hours for me 8.3/10

This is absolutely beautiful, reminiscent of a mango lassi with added chamomile and buttery iris in the drydown. Has you going to smell it every other second, and is a compliment beast.

Smells like someone packed a piña colada, a flower crown, and a spa towel into one bottle. It’s tropical Barbie energy, in the best way.

To all my South Asian fragrance enthusiasts, we just got a Mango Lassi/Kulfi fragrance!

This is a VERY strong performing fragrance right off the rip. Mine had a production date of the same month I bought it and I was surprised it didn't need much time to age at all. Big projection and longevity from the very first spray. It's a beautiful realistic mango, but very much the antithesis of God of Fire's mango. They're both great. However, there is a lot of orris in this which I believe is what makes this a very powdery scent. If powderiness is not your thing, DO NOT blind buy this. This is actually THE most powdery fragrance in my collection. For that reason, I only keep this to two sprays behind me. This perfume is that strong IMO. Anything more than 2 would be overwhelming to my nose. Overall, it's a very solid clone of Mango Kiss by SHL777. I would argue this is a bit stronger. A near-perfect summer scent if you're into fruity scents. Probably would be great as a layering option, but I havent tried that yet

Starts off fun... then takes a turn. The opening is juicy and tropical—like a vacation in a bottle. Super fresh, very fruity. But here’s the thing: The dry down reminds me exactly of Mango Nuit by Julianna’s Perfume, which I already own and love. So while this isn’t bad, I don’t need two scents doing the same thing. And Mango Nuit smells smoother and more refined to me. Verdict: Nice, but redundant. If you already have Mango Nuit, you can skip this.
