a pesar de su encanto

[JLRiop]

Te aconsejaría que nunca confiaras en ese hombre a pesar de su encanto.

Estaría bien.... I would advice you never to trust in that man in spite his charm.

Hola JLRiop,

Lo tienes casi perfecto:
I would advise you to never trust in that man despite/in spite of his charm.

Though some purists would reel in horror at that split infinitive, Cuchufléte!!

I've just seen you glued the infinitive back together again in the other thread... was that the slight difference we had to spot? If so do I get a prize?

You may claim your astute eye for infinitive splicing at a time and place to be arranged. Split infinitives are often less of an annoyance than purists, but I try not to maul either unless it's absolutely necessary.
