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
This one doesn't whisper. The carnation and clove carry weight, and the patchouli base means it stays and stays. Some will find that thrilling. Others will want to know where the door is.Maja
