The few "cubans" you've smoked were either fake or wasn't maintained in a proper environment. I enjoy my Fuentes as much as the other guy, but cuban cigars are in a whole different league. There are suttle nuances, aromas, and flavor that you can't replicate from Dominicans, Nicaraguans, and other cigars rolled from different countries. So far, Tatuaje cigars have been the ones to come close to replicating a cuban cigar for me. If you have not tried one, I highly recommend you try one. And if you find it as one of the most flavorful and aromatic cigar you've ever tried, then just know, cubans are just a few notches up from these.
