Can confirm. I was once given a cocaine cigarette without my knowledge and it did have enough of a stimulant effect for me to notice something was off (though I was expecting a spliff, so it was easier to realize that it was having the opposite effect), but I absolutely did not get any kind of high.

It was mostly just increased heart rate and anxiety with a little nausea, like being overcaffeinated.

That sounds like my experience with the real thing. Didn't really do anything but kill my alcohol buzz.
