Something sharp and boozy hits first in VIP Cologne, black pepper, mint, and lemon cutting cold and immediate before the warmth underneath ever gets a real chance to show itself. Vodka, ginger, and apple carry the heart into thoroughly unusual territory, the vodka note especially giving this fragrance real distinction from typical fruity colognes. Coumarin, amber, and duck close the base in warm, resinous depth that lasts for many long hours after the citrus above has faded quite considerably.
Lively nightlife suits this aromatic fruity Eau de Toilette especially well, distinctive rather than conventional about its own considerable personality. Cuba designed something undeniably unusual here, sharp at first and unmistakably warm by the very end of the entire long wear.
