Indulge in the captivating allure of Cuba Gold, a fragrance housed in a creative bottle inspired by the shape of a Cuban cigar. Crafted by perfumers who drew inspiration from the vibrant island, this scent offers a soft, unobtrusive, tart, and bitter aroma that transports you to the exoticism of the Caribbean coast.
The fragrance opens with the tranquil floral tones of lavender, setting a serene ambiance. The invigorating citrus breeze of bergamot then sweeps in, infusing the composition with a whirlwind of freshness and purity. A harmonious blend of moist and cool woody notes adds an unmatched masculinity and originality to the fragrance, evoking the essence of noble craftsmanship. Finally, a delicate jasmine note envelops the senses with floral tenderness, accentuated by honeyed and tart undertones.
Cuba frags are great fun and make brilliant gifts, love the smell and seem to last better on ME than my more expensive scents.
Long-lasting scent, both on clothes and on the skin. Made in Belgium, at least according to the barcode 542. It cost me 5 bucks excluding shipping. According to reviews online, it's a similar alternative to Le Male, which is ten times more expensive, but I've never seen it myself, so I can't say how similar they are. For the price, it's excellent.
Despite the fact that the website indicated it was made in Russia, I couldn't resist and ordered it at a "delicious" price - with delivery from the EU. I received an authentic perfume in a BROWN tube, with a barcode from Belgium, made in France, and with an expiration date until 2025, so everything is excellent!
There is very little, practically nothing in common (except for hints of lavender and pepper) with the magnificent La Male by J.P. Gaultier. It is just an ordinary mass-market fragrance from an underground passage. It has a pleasant, slightly sweet scent with a hint of acidity, average longevity, and a weak trail. At this price, it is much more preferable to go for La Rive Cabana, which is twice as cheap but has similar properties and a similar scent.
Duplicates Le Male. The price is exceptional. It has good longevity, it doesn't fade away. Made in Russia, not in Belgium or other countries mentioned in the description.
The perfumes came completely different - the scent doesn't last, it just pops for a moment, and in a couple of minutes, you have to sniff it closely to catch even a hint of perfume. Even if you drench yourself in it, the result is the same. Yes, this perfume is cheap, but it used to be long-lasting and smelled really good in its original form. In fact, it used to last so long that it stayed fresh until the evening. This is a complete disappointment. According to the barcode, the manufacturer is Russia, not Belgium as it was before. The packaging is clearly worse too. It's a shame that the information on the website is not updated in a timely manner. After this incident and the response that details like these should be clarified over the phone before making a purchase, I will ask for clarification every time because I no longer trust the information on the website.
Could you please explain why the perfume is packaged differently from what is shown on the website?
