Cuba Jungle Zebra Cuba Paris for women

I agree Malegria. Cuba Jungle 'Zebra' absolutely reminds me of Kenzo's Perfume D'Ete. Wow - that's a blast from my past.

Zebra is a brisk/spicy green floral. Think lighter of the tobacco essences and then mix that with lily-of-the valley (muget), some leafy greens, cyclamen, and amber - which gives the powdery dry down and it almost works. I hate scents that have powder dry down of any kind, but this works for the amazing price point.

Would be a great stocking stuffer.

I was dying to try this, then read malegria's review and decided it was not, what I was searching for.
Then I saw this in a package with 3 other jungle-fragrances (fragrantica missed several other "cubas") for a bargain and just couldn't resist.

Instead of armaotic-spicy it should be placed in a category like "spicy-flowery". It reminds me of the on-take of Mandarina Duck's Rouge Intense' - fresh but intense peppered and spiced up watery flowers, overdone until the end of the middle. It's not bad, but I wanted fresh and aromatic and not disconcerting flowers.

The drydown is likable though: the spices are sweetened and deepened by maybe amber, and the spicy lily has quieted down.

The problem here is, that the sillage is comparable with the staying power of cheap shower-gel-scents, and as such is the projection. longvity from top to down: 30min. Maybe I use it for the gym - no endangerment of suffocating other members...

I was expecting something like chai tea notes mixed with the clarity of the nymphea lily, but this one is actually a pretty agressive spicy floral. I think I feel green tea in here...It strongly reminds me of another scent that is more famous and expensive but I can`t put a finger on it yet...Not my cup of tea, but not bad at all!
PS Okay, I think I can link Zebra to Kenzo Perfume D`Ete. It calms down after a while!
