AllMusic
Rolling Stone

Writing for Rolling Stone, Elias Leight called Aura "a step beyond the reggaeton and trap that Ozuna is known for" and highlighted several tracks that compare to the "insta-classics" from Odisea, saying "'Besos Mojados,' a collaboration with veterans RKM & Ken-Y on which Ken-Y threatens to out-sing Ozuna, and 'Ibiza,' which appears to get prettier every time it gets played. rap-heads will be pleased with 'Pasado y Presente,' a magnetic collaboration with Latin trap forefather Anuel AA". In conclusion, Leight stated that "Aura has just one weakness — at 20 songs, it's more drawn out than it needs to be. But with an inventive singer like Ozuna at the helm, even when Aura drags, it never loses its buoyancy for long." The song was nominated for a Latin American Music Awards of 2019, in Favorite Urban Song category.

Commercial performance

Aura debuted at number seven on the US Billboard 200 with 49,000 album-equivalent units (including 7,000 pure album sales). It is the biggest sales week of 2018 for a Latin album.
