It’s the smell of a walk through Old Havana in the evening, from the Hotel Sevilla to the Cancion del Tango for a dance lesson with Ketty and Felix. Wafts of coffee and tobacco, sweet, sugary desserts cooked with baskets of oranges and mangoes. The scent of peaches beginning to turn overripe, and citrus peel going squishy in the gutter. From a dark doorway a handsome man in white whispers, “Do you want a Cuban boyfriend?” and I speed up a little, squeaking “No! Thank you very much for asking all the same!" And then the old Cubanos at the tango club greet us with smiles, songs, rum and kisses.

"The Dark Heart of Old Havana has jumped out at me as one of the best of the entire collection, and most assuredly my personal favourite... I am in love." - megrim

"The Dark Heart of Old Havana is sweet sugary, tobacco and vanilla goodness. Smells like "Crema Catalana" also known as "Crème Brulee" with a hint of tobacco. I love it! I also detect coconut and coffee." - RUDOLFO512
