When I was living/studying in Cuba, I ran into a few colognes produced by a Cuban company called Suchel but never forked over the money to try any of their scents. Anyone have experience with their colognes? A few scents I remember were Vegueros, Nao and Pyramide.

Thanks,

Chris

This should be interesting. Would they have tobacco notes :wink2: ...?

I've never seen them, but would love to hear more about them.

Colognes are so bourgeoisie. When were you there?

C'mon, I am itching to head about these colognes, anybody...?

I'm deeply skeptical of the Cuban government's ability to produce high-quality fine fragrance...

I was there in 2003 and 2004 with the US Treasury Department's approval. :001_smile

Hmmm...Are you as equally skeptical when it comes to the government's ability to produce high-quality tobacco? :wink2:

I should point out I have no problem getting my hands on the colognes I mentioned. Just was interested if anyone had any input or experience with them.

Well, considering that Cuban cigars (with some exceptions like the various Cohiba limited editions and so forth) aren't even worth smoking until they've got at least a year's post-purchase age on them... yeah. I'd take a Nicaraguan out of the box over a Habano with less than a year or two, any day.
