I'm no expert but it was a tobacco, leather and bergamot scent. I'll have to start wearing it again.
The vintage Tabarome (just says Tabarome vs Tabarome Millesime) has been discontinued for a while. I didn't really start exploring fragrances until last year, so i missed out on it. I like the new version, and bought some, but it supposedly it doesn't hold a candle to the original. I hope you have the big flacon (500ml) as it is a very highly prized cologne. It's value increased dramatically as it is now impossible to find anywhere, selling right now for $900/oz (30ml). I was thinking about getting a 1.5ml spray sample, but at over $50 for something I can only wear a few times and knowing that I will not buy more of it unless it gets rereleased, it seems silly.
Enjoy your prize.
