Discover Side Effect Eau de Parfum by Initio Parfums Privés.

From the first drop, Side Effect seizes the senses, sending a shiver through the body. Desire awakens, senses blur, and a magnetic tension ignites the mind, inflaming intentions. As seduction intensifies, raw attraction becomes inevitable. Defined by a hypnotic blend of Tobacco, Vanilla, Rum, and Cinnamon, enhanced by Hedione, this enigmatic night perfume captivates effortlessly. Its seductive formula disrupts even the most attuned senses, unveiling the leathery, animal, and woody facets of the Vanilla Bean. The result is an aura of magnetic attraction, endowing the wearer with an almost otherworldly appeal.

OUTSTANDING PRODUCT

I’d heard reviews (especially Aaron Terrance Hughes), absolutely raving about the diligent craftsmanship and formulation - ABSOLUTELY not overstretching the assessment. This is frankly superb, and a purchase I’m delighted to have made.

Beast mode projection with soft **** nature

This gem of a vanilla rum ambroxem white suede unisex frag will not live a day without a compliment

Stunning enigmatic and perhaps more wearable than oud for you know what

Delicious balanced and classy

Highly recommend Initio side effects

The smell of this perfume takes you to another world I was worried about it because I did not know how it would be as I did not get the chance to smell it before I made the purchase it is just incredible once I sprayed the sample and opened the bottle I do recommend it
