This is water not fragrance, longevity 30 min, projection zero, lucky it was a gift… avoid this one.. Cuba gold is the best frag from this house.

Very nice scent for its price – one of my favorite Cuba Paris frags. With the bargain price comes the usual CP performance issues, but at this price you can feel quite comfortable with heavy application, or frequent reapplication if you want it to last. It doesn’t so much hit a dry down stage as just begin to disappear within a couple of hours, but don’t let that dissuade you, particularly if you like citrus-vanilla blends or powdery frags in general.
This does have a very refreshing lightly sweet citrus opening, far more natural than the price would imply before it spends its second half as a lightly woodsy powdery vanilla floral.
CP frags regularly surprise me with a quality well in excess of similarly priced scents. They won’t all agree with you because they are relatively simple concoctions (you either like the 1-2 primary accords present or you don’t) but if you find a few you enjoy you will find them in regular rotation, as I often enjoy them in the evenings at home when I’m close by and can reapply whenever I want.

I was not expecting it to be that nice. i am positively surprised.
The opening smells very much like caipirinha to me. Later it transforms into a nice warm grass smell.
It is nothing extraordinary, but if you´re looking for a casual perfume (maybe something for a barbecue or a garden party) this one is really worthy checking.
This is actually one of the few fresh masculine fragrances that i really like.
And it did reminded me of my home country Brazil in a nice way.
This is well done.
Thumbs up!

Pros:
– Nice mix of the Tonka bean and Orange
– Sandlewood and Lavender actually compliment the scent with a pleasent undertone
– Decent natural Citrus scent that has a bit more of a natural smell to it
– Budget cologne that has decent quality
– I don’t think anybody could be truly put off by this scent
– Overall a very natural smelling cologne
Cons:
– Longevity is about 1-2 hours under ideal conditions
– Not a special scent nor a signature one
– Lemon is either non-existant or overpowered by orange
Just like New York smelt like what I assumed it would, Brazil delivers on what I assumed it would be like. A little tropical citrus with some floral notes and the signature cuba undertone of cigar (very light).The orange note is actually very well done as it does smell natural to me. Its a decent scent for the price but not something I wear outside of the house as it just doesn’t have that strong of an impact. Would recommend if you are looking for a nice light citrus scent for chores and other personal errands.

Out of all the cuba frags I would say this is my 2nd favorite from the line.
This fragrance is kind of weird to me but weird in a good way. Not weird as in weird smelling(Its actually very pleasant) but its just weird in a way that its really hard to classify.
This starts out smelling like a very pleasant green, powdery scent and then transforms into an ambery,green scent that honestly to me smells like a root beer float. With that said its a very pleasant fragrance that wont wow people but people will deffinitly like this and its very inoffensive.
It may not be an amazing scent but its very unique so I have to give it that.
I really liked it from first smell and I still love it to this day.
All in all id rate this a 7.5 out of 10 !
Really solid scent but this only projects below average and only lasts 3-4 hours. But for the price it doesnt hurt to re-apply and works great for a gym scent as its not to loud and inoffensive.

Not really “like” not really “hate”.
Cuba Brazil is sort of a close cousin to Cuba Cactus for men, this one is a rather dull green not as bright as maybe Calvin Klein’s Eternity. Klein’s Eternity may be the one Cuba Paris fragrance was trying to mimic here.
Creamy sandalwood, sweet lavender/citrus, just not a sparkling one.

Very similiar to Pi Neo by Givenchy..

This particular Cuba, like many of the Cubas, is touted as a “cheapy-but-goody”. And if there is one kind of fragrance I love, it is a cheapy-but-goody. So I decided to give it a go and ordered it online.
The initial blast is very, very pleasant; fresh and citrusy with a tiny bit of a musky undertone. Nice.
But that’s it. This is one of those numbers that basically disappears after about 10 seconds. Oh you can still smell it if you literally dig your nose into wherever it is you sprayed it. No sillage or longevity at all. I am currently using it as a bathroom freshener/sheet spray. I will not be repurchasing.
So save your money. Cuba Brazil (as of May 2015) costs between 10 and 15 dollars for a 3.4 oz. For a bit more you can purchase something really awesome and reasonable, like the dependable Nautica “Voyage”. Or, for the same price range, FCUK “Friction” for men, which is a REAL cheapy-but-goody.

Since there are no reviews, I decided to take a small dive and buy this cheap frag, hoping that it would be good. Since spring and summer are coming up. I took it upon myself to buy this and see what it smells like.
It’s not fresh enough for my tastes, it’s also strangely sticky to the skin which is not nice at all, it’s not as bad as spilling soda over yourself but it’s annoying. If you are looking for something cheap I think you should keep looking, it’s not unique or anything.
