By the editors · 2 min readBirch and tobacco open with a sharp, slightly tarry smokiness. Rum arrives quickly in the heart, warm and slightly sweet, rounded by honey which adds depth without pushing the composition into confectionery territory.
Tonka bean works alongside guaiac wood and amber in the base, delivering a dry, subtly vanilla-tinged warmth. The guaiac wood contributes a camphor-like, smoky woodiness that keeps the sweetness from becoming heavy. The rum note remains present throughout, anchoring the fragrance in a recognisably boozy register.
Cubata is an unapologetically rich, dark composition — rum and tobacco forward, with enough woody structure to feel grounded. A cooler-weather fragrance best suited to evenings.
