  Les Destinations has just landed in Mexico and their Cuba is a curious proposal: dry tobacco, cedar, and leather that, at first glance, smells more like alcohol than what the technical sheet promises. Perfumer Veronique Nyberg has created something complex that demands patience; the first time I tried it, I only smelled the alcohol, then came the rum, and only on the third try, with calm, the tobacco that lasts through the entire development. After two hours, it becomes pleasant, with that dominant tobacco and other hidden aromas, reminiscent of Cuban cigar smoke on clothes but finer. It has elegant moments, like a fifty-something man, but it’s not powerful nor does it leave a trail. The price is fair, I like it but not too much; I wouldn’t buy it again or use it frequently, it’s for unconventional occasions. If you’re looking for something better in the line, try Costa Rica or Montreux.

  FIRST THINGS FIRST: it needs to be clarified that many sold this as if it were from a German or English house, and since people don’t like to inform themselves, they buy into that story. LES DESTINATIONS is a niche RUSSIAN brand I met a year ago in Moscow and fell in love with. This perfume, CUBA, if you’ve been there, is a walk along the Malecón in Havana at 5 PM: the scent of a Habano cigar before lighting it, freshened by that herbal touch and a dirty, masculine cleanliness from the patchouli. I don’t detect the raspberry, but there is a slight sweetness that softens the harsh tobacco as it dries, like it was just lit, bringing in the night and the party in the tourist streets of Havana. It’s a scent for men around 30, not for youth or those seeking sweet commercial aromas. It’s a defined men’s scent.

  First off, I clarify that many believe it’s German or English, but LES DESTINATIONS is a niche Russian brand I met in Moscow and fell in love with. The Cuba perfume is like walking along the Malecón in Havana at 5 PM: the scent of a Habano before lighting it, with a cold herbal touch and a dirty, masculine cleanliness from the patchouli. I don’t feel the declared raspberry, but there is a slight sweetness that softens the harsh tobacco as it dries, bringing in the night and that party in the tourist streets. It’s a heavy scent, for men around 30, not for youth or those looking for sweet commercial things. It’s a defined men’s perfume.

  It’s a perfume I like, but it’s not easy because it doesn’t follow olfactory trends. The image it gives me is dry tobacco inside a cedar cabinet, with a hint of rum at the start that disappears as it dries, maybe even a room full of pencils. It’s very pleasant, but not for someone looking for a conquering fragrance that earns compliments. I think it won’t appeal to the younger crowd, although a more bohemian person might appreciate it. I see it as perfect for alternative men who want a signature scent that sets them apart from the rest.

  I love it, but it’s not ‘easy’ because it breaks with current trends. It reminds me of dry tobacco inside a cedar cabinet (with a hint of rum at first that fades as it dries), or even a room full of pencils. It’s very pleasant, but not for someone looking for a conquering fragrance that earns compliments. Maybe it won’t appeal to the younger crowd, but a more bohemian soul will appreciate it. I see it as perfect for alternative men who want a signature scent that sets them apart from the rest.
