Hookah tobacco smell!
A bit ethereal for me due to the shisha character, but definitely not bad. In my view, not worth a niche price unless you love the style.

Details on INITIO Parfums Privés Side Effect
Side Effect grabs you from the first spray. It's a scent that sparks desire and excitement. Imagine a captivating mix of Tobacco, Vanilla, Rum, and Cinnamon. Hedione adds an extra touch of magic. This boozy and woody fragrance also has hints of leather from the Vanilla Bean. It gives you a magnetic, almost otherworldly charm. Perfect for anyone, made in France.
How does INITIO Parfums Privés Side Effect smell?
Side Effect starts with a warm, inviting blend of sweet Rum and spicy Cinnamon. Soon, rich Tobacco and a touch of exotic Saffron emerge. The heart is a smooth dance of creamy Vanilla and airy Hedione. It all settles on a comforting base of Sandalwood, creating a boozy, spicy, and subtly woody aroma.

Spicy rum tobacco with warm vanilla
I find that on my skin the fragrance unfolds a warm, dark blend of rum, tobacco, cinnamon, and a gentle vanilla, although personally I feel it lacks a slightly deeper rum note. It has a pleasantly sweet and spicy character and works well for evening outings or dates. Because of its warming aura, I feel it is a suitable companion for cool autumn and winter evenings.

a perennial favorite
I have had this fragrance for the fourth time now and many more will follow. A perfume that you can actually wear for any occasion; it stands out but is not annoying and remains memorable.
