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.
Long-lasting fragrance, both on clothes and on the skin. Made in Belgium, at least the barcode is 542. It cost me 5 bucks, not including shipping. According to reviews online, it's a comparable alternative to Le Male, which is 10 times more expensive, but I haven't seen it myself, so I can't say how similar they are. For the price, it's excellent.
Despite the website stating that the product is made in Russia, I couldn't resist and ordered it at a "delicious" price with delivery from the EU. I received an original 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 found in an underground passage. It has a slightly sweet and tangy pleasant scent with moderate longevity and a weak sillage. At this price, it is much preferable to opt for La Rive Cabana, which is half the price and has similar properties and a similar scent.
Duplicates Le Mail. The price is exceptional. It has staying power, doesn't come off. Made in Russia, not Belgium or other countries mentioned in the description.
The perfumes that arrived were completely different - the scent doesn't last, only lasts for a moment and after a couple of minutes you have to sniff it closely to catch even a hint of perfume. Even if you douse yourself in it, the result is the same. Yes, this perfume is cheap, but it used to be long-lasting and smelled really nice in its original form. It used to last all day, even until the evening, as if freshly applied. This is a complete disappointment. According to the barcode, the manufacturer is Russia, not Belgium as it used to be. The packaging is also clearly worse. It's a shame that the information on the website is not updated timely. After this incident and the response stating that I should clarify such details over the phone before making a purchase, I will question everything every time because I no longer have trust in the information on the website.
Could you please explain why the perfume comes in different packaging than what is shown on the website?
