It really does in the right setting. My girlfriend and I took 2C-D at 11,000 feet in Rainbow Lakes, a beautiful spot within Indian Peaks Wilderness in Colorado. I can't remember if we took 30mg or 50mg, but we were both reminded of 100ug LSD more than anything else (other than duration, as we were baseline by T+5hr). My girlfriend was especially impressed with 2C-D, as that was her first try with it.
My other experience with 2C-D was in my apartment...just me and a best friend conversating all night long. The dosage here was 40mg. This experience was more on par with what I'd expect from a 2C....insight, light-hearted humor, with no 'twists' upon the ego. So from my point of view, set and setting are extremely important with these 2Cs if one is expecting a soul inspiring journey. And in the right setting, 2C-D (and probably 2C-C) can deliver the full deal.
