Sometimes they read like the recipe for a fruit salad!
I've seen comparisons mentioning "black raspberry" and wonder if that is
so different to the red raspberry in others, similarly for black cherry
versus red and "green apple' and "yellow plum".
"Notes of cola" - well I've never drunk a coke or pepsi in my life and
I've never smoked so "notes of tobacco leaf" are also out.
