Mango first, and it is ripe rather than green. Thick, sweet, faintly resinous the way real mango flesh is. Coconut arrives with it and immediately turns the whole thing creamy.
Lime and lemon cut across the cream within seconds. Sharp, slightly bitter, and necessary, because without them the opening would sit heavy from the first spray.
The heart lifts it. Pink pepper crackles across the fruit, jasmine adds a white floral richness, and orange blossom brings a clean honeyed edge that stops Khadlaj Island Sun perfume reading as dessert.
The base is where it settles down and stays. Tonka bean gives an almond-vanilla warmth, musk holds it close to skin, and the woods keep the sweetness from spreading. One wearer described the drydown as mango syrup, which is fair.
