Which Should You Buy?
Tabu is the original 'slutty' smell, a classic that refuses to die. It's a bold, spicy, animalic bomb - love it or hate it, just don't over-spray unless you want to gaslight your enemies.
This one's a mixed bag, with some calling it a flat, food-like spice bomb and others praising its complex, sweet, and woody drydown. If you like cheap dupes, it might be worth a punt, but don't expect a power-house performer.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its 'beast mode' performance and strong, spicy-animalic character, Tabu is far too potent for the office. It's best suited for romantic dates or evening formal events where its commanding presence can shine, though some enjoy it casually when applied sparingly.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its warm, spicy, and amber-heavy profile makes it suitable for evenings and cooler weather, perfect for dates or more formal gatherings. However, its intensity might be a bit much for an office setting, and it certainly won't suit a sport setting.
