I just poured my first batch of candle samplers with an assortment of fragrances from this company. Cuba was the second of 8 flavors. I bought it because I was curious on their take. This scent has all the complexities of a vacation and fantasy in a candle.

This is a smooth, calming scent that would appeal to many. Performed well in coconut wax with wood wick, it had a light cold throw but wonderful hot throw.

I'm currently exploring multiple fragrances from StockFragrance, and I thought I'd share my impressions as I go. I've personally found it incredibly valuable when others post their detailed notes, and I hope my observations can be equally helpful to anyone else considering these scents. I'm aware some may have different experiences but, I truly believe that sharing our individual experiences, even if they vary, is incredibly valuable for everyone! CP Soap 2 oz- Simple 3 oil recipe - Used 7% TOW (2% higher then I usually use) - Soaped @ ~ 90F-95F - Date made 01-15-2025 a. Perfect from beginning to end! Just like the scent b. No Discoloration. No Acceleration/Ricing. c. Scent retention – Scent did lighten up within 4 weeks but still present. I do not have a picture of this one as my husband used it. I will say that after 4 weeks the color remained the same. Please see my photo of Jardin D'Hiver as this was the same color throughout the entire life of the bar.

The sweet savory aroma give me a nostalgic feeling as if I were back in Little Havanna. Can’t wait to use in my creams.

Best tobacco leaning fragrance I've had the joy of sniffing. I feel this could work for a western/cowboy type branding just as well as Cuban, so manly and unusual, love it!

My ultimate favorite fragrance for men. Gives me a nostalgic feel of my father’s old spice after shave. I love it. I ordered a sample 1oz size, definitely planning on getting more for my soap making.

Found this to be a 'masculine' fragrance, on the stronger side. Smelled wonderful in flask and in the product. Highly recommend!

Tobacco and so much more. The rich depth to this one comes through in soap. I do hot process so as not to miss a single note. I used it at 6% first time because I wanted it strong. I will keep it at 6%, I love it!

My son fell in love with this scent. You can smell a hint of tobacco, but it blends well with coconut/apricot wax and in my room sprays.

When I first smelt this scent blend on the samples I knew I would love it so I ordered it. My husband and his friends like to have their cigars from time to time & thought "they are gonna love it too!" Well neither my husband nor one of his cigar buddies liked it. I was shocked! So I made a room spray and used it in our fireplace room. Had the same friend over and both became fans of it immediately. So I recommend trying this out (and any fragrance really) in a product first before you judge it. This scent is a mildly sweet tobacco that is so sensual, in a masculine way. But there is this expensive cologne feel to it w/o it being overpowering. Just beautiful!

Smells great, love it
Cecile you nailed this one. I usually don't like tobacco scents .This fragrance is beautiful. My dad was a smoker. usually cigarettes. He would get cigars or smoke a pipe here and there. This fragrance reminds me of that (not cigarettes) The sweet smooth blend of tobacco with a sensual aroma. I think of cherry pipe tobacco . Ohhh this is delightful, It is probably a masculine scent but I would use this in a spray.

I read that Cuba was one of Cecile’s first creations and her favorite and after smelling it I can see why. I have never smelled a Tobacco fragrance like this before. It is rich,creamy and addicting. I just smelled Micheal Kors’s Gorgeous not too long ago and had to pass on it because of the Tobacco Accord. Tobacco and Leather scents are very difficult to execute in a way I find to be pleasant.

Inspired by the sweet smell and soft texture of ribbon cut rolling tobacco, Cécile created this fragrance while still in perfumery school in Grasse. After 21 tries, she finally found the perfect balance and 25 years later, we wouldn’t change a thing (we still have the original hand-written formula).
