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

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.

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

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.

I was so pleasantly surprised by this perfume! Now I totally get what people mean by 'mango skin' it’s such a fresh and juicy mango scent. If you’re not into overly sweet fragrances, definitely give this one a try!!! Also, the coconut note is very creamy and smooth, so it gives a super tropical summer vibe :3 I can’t wait to wear this on my next vacation to Aruba! EDIT: Wore it in Aruba, LOVED IT !!! It works wonders with humidity :)

It’s a bitter dried camomile with some natural smelling mango and some coconut and ylang ylamg. This is not a sweet tropical young girl on vacation fragrance, not a mango lassi either. This is a balanced fruity chypre with powerhouse camomile and mango in the background. This is a bitter chypre, not sweet.

I want a strong mango perfume for summer, should I get a sample of this one or Yara tous?

@Eve_evolution said it best: fruity chypre with powerhouse chamomile and mango in the background. This is NOT a sweet or juicy mango. This is the driest, earthiest, most powdery mango I've ever smelled. Too powdery for me. Herbal blast that lasts and lasts. And it's got an almost mentholated quality to it. If I bring my sprayed wrist too close to my face, my EYES start to burn a bit. My husband was not a fan, said it was starting to give him a headache, which tells you about its sillage (huge lol). The musclehead-fraghead intersect could probably rock this at the gym/track. Or it could be used on vacation to a tropical clime where its spread and staying power would be better appreciated. I imagine its dry, herbal qualities would impart the perfect fresh, energizing little kick in hot, hot weather. I'm really trying to find the positives on this one, y'all. I freaking LOVE mango scents. Unfortunately, I've got enough freshies to fill that vacay need and I definitely prefer a sweeter mango. Rare husband veto too. This one's going to the destash pile 😔

I got my hands on some Mango fragrances lately and wanted to try Tropical Kiss. I saw too late that it's a women's fragrance (I'm a man) but I decided to give it a try anyway. Sprayed it in the air and I got immediately the mango note, really juicy, realistic and sweet mango, like a girl's cream or shampoo idk but it's like a really pleasant mango. If you ever got Vulcan Feu, it's a different kind of mango. And then, the mango note really disappears quickly and you get what I called "green notes", which in my opinion, are too present and kills the mango vibe a little. It's really sour and confusing, I guess it's the chamomille and orris.. But after you let it sit for a while, you overall get a sweet mango with a green base. Even tough I'm a man, I have to say that I don't mind wearing it because it's not too feminine imo and not too sweet. Just the green notes aren't my taste. But I'd say overall it's a unisex fragrance, leaning maybe 20% feminine but if you like it, why can't you wear it right ?

Well this isn't really what I expected with a name like tropical kiss I expected more of a tropical smell but what I got was quite a floral fragrance with a little bit of mango but not a lot.. it's not that it's bad but it has a little bit of a flavored dish soap quality about it.. which I think would smell nice if I'm washing my dishes with it I guess, but I don't find particularly amazing as a perfume. So in that sense it's a little bit of a generic fruity floral fragrance that doesn't really have anything that is memorable. Go with Vulcan feu or mango bliss if you want more intense mango and a wow factor.. this is kind of a very safe fragrance though and it smells nice it just doesn't blow me away. Suitable for spring and summer.

Tropical Kiss is a vibrant and refreshing treat that feels like a mini vacation. With flavors of passionfruit, mango, and a soft hint of coconut, it delivers a smooth and fruity experience without being too sweet. The texture is silky and the taste is clean, leaving a bright finish that keeps you coming back for more. Perfect for a summer day or whenever you want something light and uplifting. It stands out on the menu with its tropical twist and balanced flavor profile.

i just blind bought this one and i’m conflicted. i don’t immediately hate it but i was expecting a more pronounced and juicy mango. on my skin it reminds me a little of laundry powder and that’s not really what i would like to smell like. i might review it again after i’ve gotten more used to it, but i don’t think i’ll be reaching for this one as much as i’d hoped.

Too herbal and spicy for what I was wanting. Too masculine on me The mango smells great but wish was not overpowered by chamomile or whatever spice that is in the dry down. Hopefully I can return. I let it sit for a couple weeks. I'll give it a couple days longer but so far has only gotten spicer not more mango smelling. Updated: I returned this one unfortunately

I thought Tropical Kiss would be a safe blind-buy for me, because I adore Lattafa Ajayeb Dubai Portrait and wanted to try another mango-forward fragrance. Unfortunately Tropical Kiss pulls way too fruity and floral on me, it doesn't work for me, I don't enjoy it. I will be sticking with the beautiful Ajayeb Dubai, although Tropical Kiss might appeal more to someone who doesn't enjoy the woody mild oud or slightly powdery drydown of Ajayeb Dubai.

No way is this a mango perfume. Everything about this is freshly cut grass. For someone who has nostalgia over weekend mornings, spring air and fresh cut grass you might love this! For the mango lovers, just skip this.

Smells like a tropical shampoo with an undertone of earthiness.

Missing the coconut entirely, unless it’s responsible for this dusty smell I’m detecting. Someone on here said it smells like a “lady smoking on the beach” and I have to agree, somehow there is a disgusting cigarette-ness going on here. I have been wearing Rayhaan’s Tropical Vibe lately and I think I will just go back to that, with a juicer mango, detectable coconut and pretty much what I wanted this frag to be when I read the notes. Combined with the disappointment of their Coconut Leche scent, I’m ready to leave French Avenue for good.

I’m not usually into fruity fragrances but I wanted at least one tropical summer fragrance in my collection. I stumbled on to this at Fragrancebuy at an incredible price to compete with several niche mango scents (namely SHL MANGO KISS). For $60 I figured I’d do a blind buy. I’m pleased I did. This is a creamy, dreamy mango cocktail with just the right amount of coconut and not too much vanilla. I get a little of the play-doh like smell in the mid-dry, but it’s actually part of what I love about it. It doesn’t smell like a cheap body spray. The longevity and projection are excellent! If you’re looking for a fab mango scent for summer, I’d give this a go. For the combination of price and quality you can’t go wrong. One caveat: fragbuy listed it as 100ml on their website, but it’s only 80ml

I've had this a couple of months now, and it still has a very bitter note that over-rides everything else, especially on my clothes. On skin alone, it isn't quit as bad on the dry down but for the first 30 min of wearing it, it just smells bitter and quite masculine. Hopefully by next summer, with a good 8 months of oxidation, it will even out to the scent that so many people rave about. I definately didn't get that version!

The mango smells amazing and is present but this also has a very strong floral note. I still get whiffs of the mango but the floral is quite sweet and comes close to overpowering the fragrance. Definitely better than Yara Tous which to me smells very synthetic. Do I love it? Jury still out. Need to try few more times and will update again. I want to love it lol the mango in it is amazing.

This is a solid fragrance but i expected something more unisex with a more pronounced Mango note. I guess in some ways I expected a juicy mango in the form of TK No. 4 NEON. Overall a nice floral & powdery women’s fragrance with a touch of Mango. Maceration might brighten up the mango a bit , but this is my first impression of it.

I’ve got about 200 niche fragrances, this is up there with some of them. For £60 this is absolutely unreal, I got mine from Elite Aromaz in the UK, worth every penny. Also compared side by side with mango kiss and there’s literally no difference, I’d choose this over that one all day

Juicy mango with a slight herbal background. Nothing that takes away from the ripe juicy mouthwatering mango! So so good. I wore it today in 90 degree weather and it was absolutely sensational! Such a nice fragrance. I’m still getting wafts of this in my hair 8 hours later

I am decluttering and selling this bottle, sprayed once for testing. I'm based in UK so UK only Drop me a private message to grab it :) Here's the picture of the bottle: https://ibb.co/JjV02jzX

I think initially this shows up as more of a spicey orange and mango. Soon after, i am sure i can smell mint. It reminds me of Ajayeb Dubai Portrait but the spicey mango is not for me.

@LALAlandxo, get this one for strong mango over yaara tous, I have both

This is sooooooooooo good! Identical to Mango Kiss!

Anybody wanna donate this if they don't like it
