La Fede Aura Manga Splash

You finally added! This perfume is perfection! ❤️❤️ Such a powerful and juicy mango that I have never smelled it in a perfume. I bought it because I heard it was a dupe for Mango Skin by Vilhelm Parfumerie. At first it is really strong, huge aura and projection. Then after an hour it subsides and becomes such a nice, smooth, creamy powdery mango with slight woody note. The lasting power is about 3-4 hours, and on clothes it stays longer. I literally sprayed it on myself every day in sick quantities because I couldn't get enough of it. My only regret is that it doesn't last longer. Since I also bought OG Mango Skin after it, I can draw a comparison. Manga Splash has a different, slightly synthetic mango at the beginning and Mango Skin has a more realistic mango scent. After 2 months it becomes almost identical to Mango Skin. Even in the drydown it now has that refined, expensive note like OG. I can say they match 98% and after 5 minutes I really can't tell the difference. OG Mango Skin unfortunately, like all Villhelm perfumes, has no longevity (I can barely smell it for an hour) and it's not worth the money in my opinion. Anyway, I get so much compliments for this and everyone likes it. This is the best you can buy. Identical scent for less money and lasts longer ❤️

If you are looking for a very linear, ripe mango forward fragrance, this is not it. That being said, it is nice in its own right. I would describe it as more a berry/tropical stone fruit mix. There is something a bit synthetic to the fragrance which is not off-putting per say, but makes it a bit more juvenile than other Mango fragrances. If I had to compare it to a fragrance I've smelled before, I would say this is more similar to Phlur Mango Mood than its intended inspiration. Still, a nice refreshing fragrance for the warm months. Longevity is moderate, around 3-5 hours depending on how well your skin is "prepped" before dry down, and for me sillage and projection is average. Not a skin scent, but not "punch you in the face" loud either. For the price point, it's a nice alternative (and probably better performer) than the Mango Mood Body Mist by Phlur and I definitely do not mind having it in my collection. I tend to reach for this as a daily wear, when I run errands, or for casual outside or family activities/functions. Because of the low price point, it's one I'm not hesitant about spraying freely. It's not something I would reach for on more intimate (date nights) or fancier occasions. But my nieces love this one; one is pre-teen, the other just turned teen if that gives any indication of its sweet scent and youthful appeal.

The first spray is very sweet. My first thought was almost plastic, like the smell of a new doll's head. Weird... but somehow still nice. As it settles, the fragrance becomes much smoother, but to me it never loses that slightly plasticky feel. In the end I mostly get a sweet mango with a synthetic edge. It's definitely not a photorealistic mango, but I don't think it's trying to be. It smells more like a sweet mango candy or a modern fruity designer fragrance than fresh mango straight from the fruit. It's simple, sweet and easy to wear. Not the most unique mango fragrance I own, but sometimes that's exactly what I'm in the mood for.

This is a juicy but sour mango - almost like when you eat a fruity sweet and the strength of the flavour surprises you. It lasts about 2 hours on me, so it’s not a heavy hitter but it’s nice enough. It’s starts loud and then tapers off quite quickly. I’m trying this at the end of summer which isn’t ideal - when summer 26 rolls around, I predict I’ll rattle through the bottle very quickly.

The mango in this is looooud. Sweet, almost a bit overriped. It smells very lovely but something in this smells like pouring mango smoothie over sweaty skin lol. I guess this can be sexy, I am not sure if this is something that works for me. This is my initial reaction after trying it on paper.

cannot speak to it as a dupe, but it's very elegant. not quite photorealistic mango but close.. a cozy fruit mix with an added green depth.

This is a beautiful tart mango candy perfume supported with a vanilla base. It's very nice. I am very pleased with La Fede Manga Splash.

A beautiful scent! It’s sweet and fresh at the same time. Very similar to ”Mango skin”. Lovely to wear during a summer night 😍.

This is a very artificial mango fragance. To me this has mango, lotus, sugary sweet, vanilla, and it has something plasticky and lipsticky in it. I cant see the comparison to mango punch by paris corner tbh. Both mangos used in those scents are very different. This fragance has an overly sweet ripe mango and has an almost unbearably strong artificial thing to it. This fragance reminds me of those scented ballpoint pens from the 90s and 00s somehow mixed with air refresher from a spray can. More meant as a gourmand. In the dry down there is a lot of vanilla on my skin and the mango almost disappears. Mango punch by Paris Corner is less sweet, a smidge less artificial and more earthy. And more masculine leaning in my opinion. Both aren't great tbh but I think I prefer mango punch after maceration. I personally would skip both and save up for something else. Still havent found a good affordable mango fragance. Because this gives me artificial fruit-scented ballpointpen highschool nostalgia, id give it a 6/10

I bought It because i wanted a mango parfume. You can smells the mango and the Blackberry, and also the patchouli, but it's not overwhelming (I don't like patchouli-heavy parfumes and I'm very sensitive to that note but I can tolerate this one). It is nice, I want to like it, but its very parfumey, it's not a natural or fresh scent, it's like a non-defined mainstream parfume (nothing bad with that, but I don't reach for it)

There is a weird note in this fragrance, cannot pinpoint exactly what it is but it keeps me from really liking this perfume. I would not recommend it.

I don’t want to ruin this fragrance for anyone, but I’m going to be honest-this was a major let-down. All these reviews online hyping this fragrance up for nothing. This smells like a febreeze car air-freshener. It’s too synthetic and actually kind of headache-inducing. It’s almost nauseating to me, which is saying a lot because I love Arabian fragrances and probably have a hundred popular Arabian dupes in my collection. I cannot compare this to the original, but based off of my initial impressions of this fragrance, I can definitely say it’s most likely not a 1:1 inspiration. I really wanted to love and like this so badly but I cannot see myself letting this one sit. Please do not be fooled by the notes listed either. There is no “pink icing” detectable to my nose and the dry down is just powdery which is most like the Orris note. This really isn’t a safe blind-buy and if you’re considering getting this because you think it’s going to fulfill your juicy, fresh, summary, mango expectations, it’s not. Mango Jugoso by Paris Corner is a better and safer alternative (for me) by a mile.

If you want a synthetic mango perfume with intimate sillage that devolves into the barest scent (noseblindness? fade-out?), trash longevity (4hrs), and too-strong patchouli to ruin your nose for the rest of the day, try this sh*t. It's exactly like Phlur's Mango Mood but slightly more expensive and worse. I'm seriously stunned at how poorly this performed compared with a body mist. And I can tolerate a well-blended patchouli, but this isn't well-blended at all. At least give me some berries? Florals?? Nope. I'll get the faintest whiff of fake, candied mango from time to time, but that patchouli immediately gets back to overpowering everything with its soapy, woody green. Maybe if I let it macerate longer the patchouli will chill out? I would love to enjoy literally any other listed note. :( I honestly don't have high hopes for this one though. I bought a gently-used bottle, so it's already been sitting out for a couple of months. Might be destined for the destash pile....

If you are looking for a dupe of Mango Skin, this ain't it. I blind bought it based on positive reviews and I was looking for a budget-friendly alternative to Mango Skin. Oh boy. This is sharp, synthetic mango that fades once the sharper, more synthetic blackberry note takes over. All the other notes listed may as well not be there. I was very disappointed and it has convinced me never to blind buy a perfume ever again.

Tart, sour dark berries and mango- bordering on sweaty. The patchouli in this does no favors here. That damp earthy green smell just lends to a spoiled fruit effect. Identical to mango mood from phlur. As it dries down it becomes a very boring floral scent. Was expecting a more mango, blackberry juice- something to the effect of mango jugoso. I’ll just enjoy that one in peace and leave the mango skin dupes alone the scent profile isn’t for me.

its not the best mango fragrance but it projects and last forever for me i mean 12 hours without like lotion again not the highest quality but for me lasts a very long time

Omds it smelled so off to me I love mango note but this smelled synthetic didn’t feel like actual mango flesh and sourness added to it somehow felt like sweat

Can anyone confirm if this smells like Mango Punch from Paris Corner? I have that one and I don't want to be redundant.
