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.
An underrated gem that sparks joy, 1001 is a complex, sweet, and warmly spiced dream. It's truly a luxurious fruit candy experience, though a few found its performance disappointing.

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
The warm and woody accords, combined with a sweet and spicy profile, make it suitable for dates and formal events. Its perceived strong projection by many users means it might be a bit much for a closed office environment, but its unique character makes it great for casual outings.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Warm Spicy, Woody, Powdery accords and Sandalwood, Patchouli notes
