What do reviewers say about Charisma and Tabu?
This one doesn't whisper. The opening hits hard and stays there, aggressive sweetness from cardamom over fig that takes no prisoners. If that's the draw, it delivers.Charisma
This cologne concentration means Tabu wears closer to the skin than its later EDT counterparts, but it never apologizes for its intentions. The civet and clove remain defiantly present.Tabu
