I worked for Dana Perfumes for 33 years in the compounding dept from 1963 until 1997. The original Ambush cologne was a compaion product to mens Canoe colgne. They are the exact Fragrance, but Ambush is heavier for women. Sometime in the early 1990s, the powers that be came with up with idea too make a new fragrence for Ambush. I told them I didn't think that was a good idea, but they new better. The new fragrence was very nice, but should have had new name. Needless to say both products suffered. If you want the old Ambush buy mens Canoe cologne and put it on a heavier.

I was trying to restock my original Ambush and find the reformulated version not to my liking, though one son (30) on whom i tested it liked this one better (I said he could give the bottle to his girlfriend). The other (28) like the original, he said it was "spicier."

Can neither recommend nor criticize: it's just not for me.

    Comments about Ambush Perfume:

    I gave Ambush as a gift. It usually takes a few minutes but the scent improves with body heat. It is not "weak" so much as it is understated. Adding more won't improve the scent on you, but it is truly a mesmerizing aroma. It is not musty, but it calls to mind elms and oaks and other woodsy settings. Think of it this way; imagine eating some subtle yet flavorful cheese and grapes. Now imagine eating those within a grove of redwoods.

    Comments about Dana Ambush Perfume:

    I wore both Ambush and Tabu in the 60s, and enjoyed both scents. I still wear Tabu, but I am not impressed with the reformulated Ambush scent. The old formula was so much better. Please Dana, bring back the old formula and let US decide wich we want!

      Comments about Ambush Perfume:

      I was not too impressed that I didn't receive what was shown in the picture. I LOVE the smell of Ambush as I used to wear it in high school but it's a real pain not having a spray bottle.

          This cheapy is a power pack of overtly sexual and heady notes. It is quiet but insistent.
