Mango Manga is sweet, exotic and bathed in the sun. This cheerful juicy composition encompasses fruity energy of ripe mango fruit refreshed with sweet orange zest.

Mango Manga is a very appealing, long lasting and exotic fragrance. Available as 100ml EDP.
The nose behind this fragrance is Pierre Montale.

A little rotten on first sniff but beautiful drydown
Asson – :
Onken mango flavoured yoghurt mixed with the peach and apricot compote of a Muller corner yoghurt. The interesting, almost overripe fruit and lactonic opening quickly disappears and turns into a generic, pleasant, sweet woody smell.

I layer this with a citrus marine fragrance and then it’s amazing. In its own Mango Manga is cloyingly sweet, like over ripe-smelling, on me.
alexandr golandec – :
This smell just like Mango juicy. but then after and hour the mango is gone and what you get is just a floral scent. this fragrance is 90% femenine
sergad – :
I was hoping this to be really nice tropical fragrance, but unfortunately this is not my taste at all. There is some tropical tone to it, but there’s also a rotten smell to it. Way too sweet mango mixed with different woody notes is an unusual composition.
This perfume is never going to be one of my favorites.

blind bought a new full bottle here is what I get I love the opening the mango is pretty much there and is very natural smelling but that did not last the orangey mango connection disappears and the flowers comes in this becomes very feminine and soapy although the mango is still there it has been overshadowed by the flowers and that I really did not like “i want more MANGO” they should have taken the jasmine note and just put a more mango note in the middle that would have been a lot nicer in my opinion. at the base it turns slightly woodsy I find the cedar and oakmoss prominent maybe slight sweet vetiver. I don’t really smell aoud at the base I was looking for it but cant really detect it the mango is all gone at this point 🙁 at the base woodsy notes with the slight flower notes in the back round over all its an OKAY scent nothing to be hyped about. My opinion if they only a lot of the mango note it would have been very very good and not soapy. I don’t really get it MANGO MANGA by its name should be more mango than flowers generally scent aims more on the feminine side as a male I think I can still pull it off good for hot weather/summer scent.

This scent came out with a deliciously sweet fruity mango opening… I was smitten!
Within the next half hour, the fruit was all but gone and a very soft jasmine and wood remained. It was very hard to smell on me, despite the generous splash I applied.
Hours later, I can detect a slightly warm fruit with some deeper floral background but it blends very creamy, maybe even a bit soapy.
For now, this is a pass… If the opening stayed it would’ve been a must have! Perhaps it will fair better in the heat of summer….

Starts with sweet, hypnotic mango. Ripe and juicy, in the background I detect orange. smells like a wonderful tropical cocktail.
It quickly turns dry and green with a hint of ylang-ylang. The jasmine is perceptible. Now it switched from fruity to floral, it’s dense, still sweet. The oakmoss becomes more noticeable.
I smell a note similar to musk and vanilla, but that’s probably because of the heavy flowers.
The wood notes slowly make their entrance but they stay in the background.
The composition manages to stay sweet for its entire lifespan.
Although this is a women and men fragrance, I feel that Mango Manga tilts towards the feminine side, even during the drydown it stays powdery and sweet. I was curious about this fragrance (even with that cheesy name)and in the end it disappointed me.
The opening is a sweet delight. The dry down smells like an old Victorian era style soap.
asso2210 – :
A sorta creamy, bubble gum, hand lotion, bubble bath smell. Smells alright, but pretty linear on my skin. I personally think this coulda used some citrus notes to make it more juicy. I see other reviews saying it is so, but on my skin its just dry and creamy. If it was just a little juicy I think I could live with it. Maybe theres just a little too much woods, or florals here.. Nothing crisp, no zest to it. Shoulda woulda coulda I guess.. Just ok for me.

like bubble gum. milky mango – orange coctail

I had quite big expectations about this scent, but it disappointed me all the way through.
First of all, I did not get any mango in here. The name is bit misleading… The scent opens as a burst of unidentified musky, sweet, floral notes. Nothing fruity or juicy, just a lot of powdered dust. Then comes a bomb of yang-yang and neroli, and woody notes. And this is how it settles. I do prefer the drydown to the first hour, it becomes less harsh and more pleasant to the nose. But the base that comes out some sort of sweet, weak sugary flower mixed with artificially coloured cotton candy, disappoints again.
It is not a good quality scent, does not smell particularly well, I could not find any appealing elements to it.
Space1326 – :
Mango Manga opens with a burst of deliscious sticky sweet juicy ripe mango, almost resembles mango bubblegum but has an underlying green/bitter note which turns down the sweetness of the scent a bit.
It reminds of a very sweet synthetic fizzy mango drink I used to love drinking as a child. The longevity is sadly not great but this scent is still yummy. I close my eyes and it transports me onto a hot carribean beach with a luscious fresh mango drink in my hand, straw hat on and feeling chilled out.
I am not sure it would actually work on a hot day but on a cold rainy day it’s rather yummy.

I accidentally came across one heavily used-up dent bottle at TJ Maxx; how bizarre. The condition was a total wreck, so I did not purchase it but did try it.
In my opinion, the scent is sure sweet and heavy. I do get orange more than mango. Then powdery, almost rotten, ylang-ylang and plastic jasmine blend in. It’s pretty unusual. Later here comes something a bit smokey. The scent is not particularly woody for me but just sweet orangey rotten mango and plastic flower are what I get out of this the most. It smells a little sacred and not for everyone. I think if it would smell really wonderful if it were a fresh new bottle. Maybe in the future, I will give it a second shot.

It is too sweet,too bubblegum-like,my sons told me,I smell like a souvenier-shop,where You can buy incense-sticks,little budha-statues.pink scented-erasures.
Why is it called Mango Manga,I do not know,maybe the little creatures from cartoons,that are painted on the pink-erasures,they came from Manga-stories.

Mmmm. Mango and orange zest, combined with flowers and woods. I love that this was originally marketed toward Japan, as lighter and fresher scents are most popular in Asian countries. These are the types of scents I love most, too. Can’t wait to try this! I have a feeling me and Mango Manga will get along great 🙂
