Is this a maprang or mango?

I saw a couple of weeks ago that someone bought what was sold as a maprang on ebay from Puerto Rico was actually a mango.
Of course, I had purchased a supposed mango from a Puerto Rico nursery, but on etsy. So I am crossing my fingers this is a maprang.

Crush the leaves and smell. If there is no fragrance, it is Maprang.
The slender stem towards the tip, as in the picture, is an identifier for Maprang.
