Frangipani Flower was launched in 2010. At the time, its bottle was rounded and other perfumes of the brand had the same visual pattern, namely: Zanzibar, Índia Misteriosa, etc. The latter has also gone through a repackaging process and are now sold with straight-finishing bottles. Particularly, I think they match more with fragrances aimed at the male audience, but this is subject to another review.
In 2017, there was a change and Frangipani Flower also entered into the visual pattern of the line of fragrances that offer refills for consumers.
Regarding the fragrance, it does not seem to have been occurred any reformulation, but those who knew the fragrance at the time of its launch affirm that the current version is much weaker than the previous one. Apparently, they gave a dilution in concentration. That’s the only explanation!
That said, I can only comment on the version I received in 2017. And I already start with a criticism: Frangipani Flower is inconsistent with regard to the concept and what the fragrance delivers as a result. For those who do not know, the flower of the Frangipani (of the Plumeria family) has nuances very similar to those of jasmine. The one of pink color has creamy facets as if it received a touch of vanilla; the white one presents a fruity facet and, for this reason, is also known by us, Brazilians, as jasmine-mango.
However, this creation does not contain any content of this flower, nor is it floral. On the contrary, it reveals a gourmand fragrance, which is extremely similar to another that is known worldwide and was responsible for changing the course of female perfumery, in the year 1992: Angel (Thierry Mugler). In my opinion, a grotesque error, which creates confusion and passes a very bad impression of the company, something that could (and should) be reviewed by the area of communication.
Frangipani Flower has top notes of black currant, strawberry, chocolate, and bergamot. In the body, were combined notes of jasmine, lily of the valley, orchid, rose and honey. In the base, the fragrance features notes of vanilla, caramel, tonka beans, amber, musk, sandalwood, and patchouli.
Not much to be said! This is a scent with much inspiration in Angel and that, at this point, makes me give up trying to explain nuances or small variations between them. The only valid information would be the fact that it is a kind of diluted Angel, easier to be worn daily, as a signature, since it has less impact. Still, it leaves less trail, but keeps the wearer with the same fragrant aura and spending much less.
If you are a fan of Angel perfume, but you know that the price is high (especially here in Brazil); if you have already received criticism (especially in the heat) and still can not give it up, here is the solution to your problem!

O perfume é muito bom, pena que a industria brasileira deixa simplesmente de produzir um perfume, mesmo havendo fiéis consumidores; diferente da indústria internacional, que mantém a maioria dos produtos eternamente. Espero que este não desapareça das prateleiras tão cedo. Parabéns a Mahogany,indústria brasileira que nos oferece perfumes de excelente qualidade.

Where is the frangipani flower?
When I was a kid I used to pick up fragipani flowers which had fallen from the trees and adorn my hair with them.
Latter as a teen, I became ashamed of doing this, but I kept on smelling them up till now.
Frangipani is a very delicate flower and it is difficult to capture its sweet and subtle aroma.
I bought this Mahogany fragrance three years ago, and yes, it reminds me the sweet, milky smell of white fragipani flowers. Purple ones, however, are less sweet and more liqueur.
In fact, it’s amazing how modern perfumery can emulate the smell of a flower using a combination of distinctive notes.
Soft sillage and weak longevity, but a worthy purchase for fragipani lovers.
