About This Perfume

Dana Tabu comes across as warm spiced amber perfume, soft florals and woods. It opens with spices, orange and coriander, moves into cloves, ylang-ylang and narcissus and settles on amber, civet and benzoin. It reads unisex.

This cologne is best in fall and winter and is an evening scent. A good pick for date nights and nights out. Released in 1932.

In the community's experience it lasts through a full day, and projects to about arm's length.
