This oil does not smell much like Tabu but it is certainly within that Asian/spicy/floral/woodsy area. The oil is not sticky and spreads nicely. Sadly the scent is not all that long lasting, but while it's there it's very nice.

This is such a warm, beautiful, unique fragrance, that I became interested in when I found out it was worn by one of my favourite artists. What better way to try it than with a sample from The Fragrance Shop :) I have bought samples and larger sizes of various perfumes throughout the years from The Fragrance Shop and I have always been impressed. Plus arrives pretty quickly from the States to Australia which is a bonus. I will continue to be a customer and recommend to friends.

I really like the perfume oil and the dry oil /tabu type. I didn't have to use very much of either. Just great. I also have a bottle of the tabu I got at the drugstore. And I put a very small amount of the oil and then sprayed the tabu over it. I didn't have to use much and it stayed with me all day long. I got a lot of compliments on this fragrance. I have been using tabu for years. I love all the spicy smells. Thank you!

I was skeptical when I placed my order, but this fragrance is pretty much identical to the true Tabu oil I have. I am thrilled to have found this fragrance in an oil, which lasts much longer than the colognes and perfume sprays. Thanks for creating this fragrance! I'll be back for more for sure!
