What does Mambo (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top notes are ylang-ylang, mango and mandarin orange, so citrus and fruit come first. In the heart, hibiscus, orange blossom and ginger add a soft floral tone with a touch of spice. The base of musk, vanilla and sandalwood sweetens it and closes on a woody, oriental warmth.

It has been discontinued. Its notes and accords sit close to Swiss Arabian Hawa and Chanel Gabrielle Chanel Eau de Parfum.
