Lattafa's Ajayeb Dubai Portrait is a purported clone of niche fragrance Stephane Humbert Lucas' Soleil de Jeddah Mango Kiss. Having no experience with that fragrance, I can only judge Portrait on its own merits. It's quite a beautiful fruit forward fragrance, specifically a mango fragrance that is very strong and long lasting. That mango note is blended with floral, woody and musk aromas to balance it out. It's a creamy floral mango that comes very close to smelling like actual mangoes hanging on a mango blossom tree (albeit with baby powder mixed in ;D). Quality is niche level and it comes at a good price.

All of which makes it really surprising that the reviews on Fragrantica for this are so divided. For some reason, this fragrance has polarized users and they either really love it or really hate it. Maybe the haters were hoping for a more gourmand style fragrance with vanilla, coconut and/or honey notes -- all of which Portrait lacks.

I'm really not sure what the issue is, so I hope this review helps in making it clear what you are getting here. This is a hybrid fragrance that blends the fruit and floral DNAs and does so very well. It's a floral powdery mango scent. If that appeals to you, you should definitely get this. This is unisex but leans more feminine to my nose due to the florals. Male users who may be hoping for a fresher and more masculine note on the drydown a la Polo Black should be aware it's not to be found here. As I do a lot of outdoor activities and am a known foodie, I can get away with wearing this.

This is great for social and outdoor activities in all seasons. It favors younger users and is unisex, though again it does lean more feminine. Performance is very good and bottle presentation is beautiful. Quality is definitely niche and comes at a very good price. Bottom line: Can you wear and enjoy a fragrance like Lattafa's Bade'e Al Oud Sublime which is also a tropical fruit and floral aroma? Yes? Then you can definitely wear and enjoy this. Recommended.

This is a sweet, creamy mango with a little bit of citrusy touch. The longevity and sillage is moderate and is a skin scent.

Strong, but very nice fruity- mango scent, and it lingers throughout the day!

This is my go-to summer fragrance. It starts with a mango note and dries with a woody and floral finish. I've gotten many compliments on it and it is not too offensive. Definitely feminine not unisex.
