Mangolicious Hibistorm

A love at first sniff! I ordered a full sized bottle after wearing it for a day. On my skin, it's such a juicy and spicy mango with juicy candied red berries, hibiscus, and a gentle rose in the background. The oud is so well blended in here. I'm relatively picky with oud because on my skin, it can be either hit or miss. But in here, the oud mingles with the amber and leather in such a way that plays beautifully on my skin. There's an effervescent juiciness and sparkling quality to the fragrance that is married nicely with the spiciness that you get from the oud and other deeper, muskier notes. It honestly reminds me of eating a fresh, juicy mango with the spiciness of Tajín chili powder. You get that contrast of fresh, juicy, and fruity, with the spiciness and earthiness that makes it reminiscent of an exotic sweet and spicy candy. It's definitely a gourmand fragrance but it's quite wearable. I could definitely imagine a candy or a cocktail smelling exactly like this. Everyone's tastes vary, but to my nose, it's divine.

This is a lovely fragrance. It really is a sort of combination of GOF and HM. In the beginning I’m hit with a blast of a fresh and somewhat green note to my nose. I guess that’s the mango? If it is, it’s a green mango. It’s ultra fresh and perfect for warm weather. This freshness lingers throughout but then after about 2 hours, I get this beautiful sweet rose similar to the opening of hibiscus mahajad that just emerges almost out of nowhere! It continues to evolve and I get a sort mango sweetened by a sweet rose. The leather is there in the background but doesn’t overpower. It’s a scent journey that I don’t often find in a lot of fragrances and is very interesting and enjoyable. I love this.

On paper, this smells fruity & musky yet really aromatic - gorgeous! On my skin, I get a green skankiness that I don't love for the first 15/20minutes or so. Maybe it's the Hibiscus? Once that fades the addictive fruity aromatic scent returns and I love it! I haven't smelled Hibiscus Mahajad or original GOF but I have smelled the Vulcan Feu dupe and I see it as being in the same fruit/musk family but this is definitely unique (Plus Vulcan Feu has the Moss note which I dislike and this doesn't!) Great longevity & projection... HUGE fan of this brand <3

I got a sample of this after ordering wood of gods. I tried it the other day and ran to order a full bottle. It's fresh and deep at the same time. The oud is not overpowering but gives it some oomp. I think this is a great year ro. und scent. Even though it's tropical with the mango the middle and base notes makes it more versatile. Update 4/22: wearing this today and it is beast mode! I've had it for about two months and it is beautifully blended. The fruity top notes give way to a blended leather woody blend. It's not sharp. Well done Sphinx!

THIS STUFF IS STRONG. Longevity 8h with monstrous sillage for 2 hours and arms length up until 4th hour. Skin scent after that but man this is marvelous Imagine you got the skin of an orange and squeezed it and that citrus mist comes out, you capture the mist and add some sweetness to it and mix it together and you have this 10/10 (my wife signature) Great longevity Crazy sillage Niche quality Good price if you have the discount with it
