They must be two different plants as Top Tropical Plants offers both. The garlic smell is prominent feature of Mansoa While it is not mentioned in Saritea Magnifica. Mine is Mansoa.

Mansoa flower changes color with age, this feature not mentioned in glow vine. As said by Brig arif, garlic smell is big difference. Mine is in pot and new growth is not fast.
