“Salted Green Mango” perfume is a captivating olfactory journey that pays homage to the cherished memories of my childhood in the Southern part of Thailand. It is a fragrance that encapsulates the unique characteristics of Bao Mango, the coastal geography, and the culinary traditions of the region.

Bao mango, also known as Mamuang Bao is a specific variety of mango that is native to the Southern part of Thailand and Malaysia, The Bao mango is small in size and has dark green skin. Unlike many other mango varieties that are commonly eaten when ripe and sweet, Bao mango is typically enjoyed while the skin is still green and the fruit is sour and slightly tart. This gives it a different taste experience compared to other mangoes.

The flavour of Bao mango is known for its intense sourness, which is balanced by its natural sweetness. It has a unique tangy and refreshing taste that is cherished by those who appreciate its distinctive flavour profile.

In Southern Thailand and Malaysia, Bao mango is often enjoyed as a snack or used in culinary preparations. One of the popular ways to enjoy Bao mango is by dipping it in a mixture of salt and fresh chilli or dried chilli, which adds a spicy and savoury element to the fruit’s natural flavours.

The Bao mango holds a special place in the culinary traditions and memories of the Southern region of Thailand and Malaysia, where it is prized for its unique taste and cultural significance.

In “Salted Green Mango”, the tartness and slight bitterness of the Bao Mango are captured. The aroma of the small dark green mango skin unfolds, offering a tantalizingly sour and tangy experience. This distinctive characteristic sets this mango apart from others, making it a beloved delicacy of the region. As the fragrance develops, the notes of Star Gooseberry and Pomelo intermingle, adding depth and complexity to the composition. These fruity elements complement the mango, creating a multi-layered scent that is both intriguing and harmonious.

To evoke the essence of the Southern Thai coastal geography, the fragrance incorporates sea salt and a salty air accord. These notes transport you to the shores of the Andaman Sea, capturing the briny breeze and the invigorating scent of the sea. It adds a touch of freshness and authenticity to the composition, symbolizing the connection between the food and the sea.

The fragrance takes a spicy turn with the inclusion of fresh green chilli, which represents the fiery kick of the local cuisine. This note adds an exciting and aromatic twist to the composition, embodying the culinary traditions of the Southern part of Thailand.

As the perfume settles, the base notes of vetiver, sandalwood, and oakmoss emerge, providing a foundation of earthiness and depth. Vetiver adds a smoky and woody quality, reminiscent of the region’s landscapes, while sandalwood brings a creamy and comforting richness. Oakmoss contributes an earthy mossy facet, further highlighting the uniqueness of the Southern part of Thailand.

Overall, the Salted Green Mango perfume is a personal and evocative fragrance that transports you to the memories of my childhood, the flavours of Southern Thailand, and the enchanting combination of food and the sea. It captures the essence of Bao Mango, the coastal geography, and the culinary traditions in a unique blend that is both nostalgic and captivating.
