Real talk
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
Strong and powdery oriental that makes an argument for boldness. Warm spice meets yellow florals in a composition that doesn't check the room before entering. Wear it like you mean it.Nohiba
