250,000?
Yeah. Not 1 million. Let's be real. This may be against the review rules, but as far as I know, the true notes are blond leather, blood orange, mint, grapefruit, rose and patchouli, and that's pretty much what you get...although, they are nowhere near authentic.
The overall vibe is a plasticy, candy orange bubblegum smell. No cinnamon, no leather, no woods and no spices. There's absolutely no tobacco, so I don't even know what that's about. It's just a weird, smooth orangy concotion that smells, dare I say it, childish up close. It gets a little chalky towards the end, but at least the longevity is decent.
Update: Wow. I had to delete the last paragraph because it was just plain rude. Shame on you buddy. lol Anyway, now that I read this over a year later, it really goes to show how people evolve over time, as well as the overall industry. Originally, it sounds like I was pissed that such a mediocre scent could win over so many people. But after spending more time with the original 1 million, I realized that Cuba Royal REALLY is an incredible clone for the price. Plus with the continual decline in quality and uniqueness in the designer fragrance market, we might as well upgrade this scent to GOOD. EXCELLENT even for the teenage demographic. What was I thinkin'? If you want 1 million, don't even bother with the real thing. Just get 2 bottles of these and use the rest of the money to take out that special someone. Win-win. And SCORE.
