Side Effect by Initio Parfums Prives is an Oriental fragrance for Women & Men.

 

A fragrance that is thrilling, rich, and undeniably sexy, Side Effect is a masterful blend of tobacco, vanilla, rum, and coffee that tantalizes the senses and awakens the spirit. The opening is electrified by spices like cinnamon and saffron, adding an intriguing warmth that immediately draws you in. As the fragrance unfolds, the heart reveals smooth tobacco and rum, enveloping the wearer in an intoxicating, yet soothing embrace. The base notes of sandalwood, leather, and woods anchor the composition, giving it a deep, earthy foundation, while hedione adds an ethereal, almost addictive touch. Side Effect exudes animal magnetism, guaranteed to captivate anyone within reach, making it a perfect fragrance for those who seek to command attention.

Ideal for evenings or any occasion where you wish to make a bold statement, Side Effect is for those who are unapologetically seductive and confident.

Believe the hype

This fragrance is like a sexier take on Le Labo’s Thè Noir. While many reviews describe it as more masculine, I find it to be the perfect going-out scent for a woman.

Really nice but not unique

I’m not sure why this is so hyped. It’s really nice, but not unique. Save your money, buy Jazz Club which is less expensive and smells better.

Initio Side Effect

Smells great, lasts long, projects well. Everything you can ask for in a cologne. For me the 9 or 10ml decant is the way to go. 250-300 dollars for something I'm only going to wear on occasion is silly. If you have it like that, more power to you. The shit smells great.

Not for me… so far.

It’s a strong opening. But after dry down it got lost on my skin. Not fair to rate poorly based on personal experiences. But didn’t last long enough for me. It is as described and would be lovely with better lasting power. I will have to give it another try.
