Amazing!!! What a great fragrance and possibly the best progression of any Creed. In this regard it reminds me of bois du Portugal the way the notes change throughout. Starts out with a blast of lemon and bergamot citrus which settles into a gorgeous juicy and long lasting mandarin orange note which is spiced with the roughness of ginger and dry yet refreshing tea in the heart. It then drys down after several hours to a tobacco and amazing leather which is not totally unexpected but really took me by surprise as it's not that evident in the first few hours. I'd read lots of lacklustre reviews about Tabarome not being as good as the original and all of that but who cares? I've never tried the vintage Tabarome and judging by how rare and expensive it is I probably never will, all I know is that this is yet another classic men's fragrance from Creed. Fresh, classic, long lasting what's not to like about this? My favourite Creed keeps changing and now this one is in the running.
