Can we expect much here? Of course! Alone the melodious name "Comptoir Sud Pacific" and then also "Rhum & Tabac". I expect a lot. It's supposed to be reminiscent of Cuba in the 60s. Well, I can't judge that of course, firstly because the 60s were before my time and secondly I've never been to Cuba. But is on my bucket list.
But if you try to imagine pictures of the time in Cuba and in addition a gentleman in Cuba, with ner Schieberkappe or a Panama hat, a shirt with Cuban collar and a fancy linen pants, then you can also very well imagine this fragrance on him. Someone who enjoys life, is charming and also likes to dance. Cigars and rum are of course part of the lifestyle in Cuba.
The fragrance starts with a slight effervescence a little reminiscent of Sprite. It is also an alcoholic note perceptible which is probably attributable to the rum, although I as someone who likes to drink a rum, would want to draw only limited comparison. Also the following tobacco I would not now identify as that of a Cuban cigar. But the following does. It goes well with a cigar and rum. Aficionados know a perfume can also interfere with the enjoyment of a cigar and/or a spirit. And that's not the case here.
And the late dry down of the fragrance is then a gourmand par excellence. Really pleasant by the vanilla. And this remains then also for a very long time.
All in all, a beautiful, unusual fragrance, which also goes in the summer. Then but in my opinion, rather in the evening hours.
Cheers
