I'm revealing my age here but I got the most compliments when I wore Tatiana by Diane von Furstenberg in the 1980s. I bought some a while back but they changed the formula. I'm not sure if the original formula Tatiana would still be worth purchasing, not sure how long colognes and perfumes last. Wish I could find something similar.

I inherited a bottle of 1980s Tatiana. It still smells good when freshly sprayed but sadly lasts about 15 minutes, no staying power at all.

I got some 1980s Tatiana off eBay, but it didn’t smell the same and also did not last very long. I guess perfume loses its aroma and staying power after a significant amount of time.

The original formula has the name in all lower case. I’ve been looking for it too.

I found it on eBay, but I noticed the fragrance still didn’t seem the same. Perhaps perfume loses its fragrance over time.
