Roasted Tobacco and Dark Finished Wood
There is a decided but short-lived booziness to the opening of Nejma PURO, though I'm not sure that I'd describe it as "mojito". In any case, it's a brief and pleasant introduction to what becomes a somewhat classic-smelling tobacco and teak or mahogany composition. PURO does smell somewhat masculine, conjuring up the image of a good old boy smoking a pipe (not a cigar!) after dinner in a leather swivel chair at the teak desk in his library the walls of which are covered with smooth, dark wooden shelves filled with dusty books never read.

The tobacco is roasted and ready to smoke but not yet lit. The mahogany or teak smells freshly cut. Women who appreciate fragrances such as Creed TABAROME and Tom Ford TOBACCO VANILLA would surely enjoy this one as well. PURO is not a stereotypical or loud "male cologne", but it does seem to me to be more masculine than feminine.

In the Tavern 'Old Smuggler'
Old is the house that crouches under the tousled palms at the edge of the bay.
Islands under the wind ...

Old is the house, ancient.
Wind-battered walls, a roof thatched with palm fronds, full of holes. Prickly cacti have conquered the steep, rising rocky slope against which the tavern seems to lean.

The bar made of fine mahogany is scratched, forever soaked in brandy and the scent of spilled rum.
Here, William Kidd may have drunk before he set sail with the "Adventure Galley" for his next privateering voyage.

Here, contraband was likely stored - spices like cinnamon and pepper and nutmeg ...
Tobacco smoke has stained the walls of the old tavern, darkening and yellowing them.
Sweetgrass now grows on the threshold, mixing its pungent scent with the echoes of countless tobacco pipes and the memory of just as many bottles, filled with fine rum and emptied in the attempt to decipher the fragile old treasure maps of Edward Davis ...

The innkeeper swears in his hard-to-understand patois, stone and bone, that one of the massive beams supporting the roof of his tavern once belonged to the "Batchelors Delight."
Then he squeezes a bit of lemon into the glass and winks as he serves us the next Planters Punch.

And the dry, hot wind that sweeps over the Islas de Sotavento whispers of the Golden Age of the Buccaneers, of smugglers, pirates, of gold, spices, and rum ...

Wonderfully exotic! Starts with a Mojito cocktail and gradually changes into a warm delicate spicy-woody base.

On me, it’s directly good cigarette tobacco with a hint of cinnamon sweetness. Only then do the top and heart notes come through. Cactus Twist makes it unusual.*

Sounds interesting (from the notes), but it really isn't. It's a nice, creamy, slightly floral but definitely rum- ...

Fine rum scent with a smoky/woody barrel base.
Delicate sweetness, pierced by sunbeams.
There's something to it - unfortunately fades too quickly!
