What do reviewers say about Jontue and Tabu?
Jontue is for someone who remembers what green actually means. Not the synthetic freshies that flooded the market in the '90s and 2000s. This has weight. It has earth.Jontue
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
