    this perfume is one of the most seductive ever when you just smell it in the bottle. on skin it gets a little weird, some bitterness appears and I have found that to enjoy it it's best not to stick...

    Yikes. There's a note in this that really really annoys me. It smells like a salty old man. Can't wait to wash this off.

    This is more contemporary than I would have ever thought. I thought it was going to be overbearing pipe, leather, and tobacco. Instead it's a hint of leather, with sweet honey, but not at all...

    Honey! Cigar! Tobacco! Leather! Wow. You would think that this is all man, but it's not really....the honey is pleasant upon drydown and lends a soft feminine quality. Not quite my thing but I...

    A tobacco scent accentuating the sweet, honeyed tones to be found inside a cigar box. I once made something very similar from a combination of coumarin, a little vetiver if I remember right, and -...

    I thought Acqua di Cuba was going to be a lot more 'leathery', but it wasn't to be. It's not a bad scent by any means, but just not that interesting to me.

    I agree with Jenny's review. A beautiful blend. Layers nicely with other SMN florals.

    Thick, sweet leather, vetiver and tobacco, and not much else. Almost indecently sensual, I imagine the original formulation of Bandit must have been something like this. For bedroom use only!

    Acqua di Cuba's notes are supposedly leather and tobacco. Both of those notes are very light in this scent, but the thing that really got me was the opening--that almost lime (?) scent that smells...
