Best Mango Perfumes

The multi-faceted mango has much to offer our senses. From its voluptuous shape, delicious flesh, and delightful aroma the beautiful fruit radiates happiness. Mango is often used in perfumes, in a supporting role, but when it is you feel its presence right away. Mango perfumes can smell ripe, sweet, and juicy or very green and leafy. Mango works especially well when it is blended with tropical, floral, fruity woody, and spicy notes.
