Al Capone Sweets as fragrance
Sometimes I find it difficult to describe a fragrance exactly. Especially when I can not sniff myself, what should be included according to the fragrance pyramid everything. I feel the same way about CUBA Prestige. Although I'm not sure if I'm writing about the right fragrance at all. I have "CUBA PRESTIGE CLASSIC" in front of me. Can therefore be that here of two different fragrances is the speech.
So I'll make it short: CUBA PRESTIGE CLASSIC smells very intensely sweet and spicy. And it reminds me, off the top of my head, of times long past when, as a young adult, I tried pretty much every smoking product once (I'm talking legal tobacco here, not any "substances") and eventually got stuck with Al Capone Sweets. These were (or are, I stopped smoking long ago so I don't know if they even exist anymore) cigarillos dipped in cognac. When you put these cigarillos in your mouth, you immediately tasted a rather strong sweetness, which mixed with the gentle pungency of the tobacco as you smoked them. This was, compared to ordinary cigarettes, quite a taste sensation. And that's exactly how this scent smells to my nose. However, the scent here comes across quite heavy and room filling. Sillage and projection are really enormous. Which is why I can imagine that the wearer of this scent, similar to the cigarillo smoker, is not really or always welcome in tight spaces ;-) Whereby I would like to call the fragrance but by no means as a "stinker".
Probably this fragrance will be the dupe of a well-known brand fragrance one. Since the possible original fragrance but is unknown to me, I can not say anything about it. For me, it is actually a sweetly flavored tobacco, which smells quite delicious. But I suspect that it could also get on the nerves of people around me. Not because it's bad - but simply because my counterpart is a "non-smoker" and can't do anything with what seems to me to be a pleasant smell. And please don't forget that there is still confusion here (with me) about whether "Cuba Prestige" is the same as "Cuba Prestige Classic". I upload a picture of my Verison and you can comment on it.

Disinfectant with lemon scent
One of these typical Turkish Kolonyas. The approach here is quite different from a cologne like you get from Farina or Mülhens. No scent pyramid here, just lots of alcohol with lemon - BÄMM! The stuff is just supposed to refresh and disinfect....

A little more respect, please, or childhood air conditioning
In the early 70s, my family traveled either in the express train pulled by a class 110 or in the Beetle 1302. The summers were hot and air conditioning did not yet exist, neither in the Beetle nor in the 2nd class...
