Beautiful luxurious smell. A great gourmand fragrance that gets a lot of compliments!
lukasz_s (verified owner) –
It was a blind buy after a recommendation. The packaging looks original and premium. I haven’t tried the smell on myself yet because it’s summer now, and this is rather a fall/winter scent. But I used it on a piece of paper, and I like it a lot. However, based on the notes, I thought it would be a bit less sweet.

What else is there to say about Side Effect?
Sure, it gets a lot of hype and isn’t the most complex scent in the world, but it gets the job done with excellent performance to boot.
Ina –
If you are looking for a woody boozy scent with good longevity look no further. It’s a perfect scent for going out and it’s unique to my nose.
Daniel mihalca –
Initio Side Effect is an intoxicating blend of rum, warm cinnamon, and rich tobacco, wrapped in a smooth veil of vanilla. The boozy sweetness is deepened by a smoky, slightly spicy undertone, creating a fragrance that feels both mysterious and irresistibly seductive.
Bold yet refined, Side Effect is perfect for nights when you want to leave a lasting impression—sensual, addictive, and undeniably captivating.
The perfect Cuddle and Date Scent.

mattimartellock (verified owner) –
The smell is incredible. The sillage is alsow very good. All in all its a very sexy perfume for which i get a lot off compliments
maguirerobertedward (verified owner) –
It is in my opinion that this fragrance does not deserve all the hype it receives. It is an ok fragrance, sits quite close to skin. I’m not getting aforementioned notes listed. Not much complexity. There is also synthetic quality with side effect and I believe there are better fragrances with this category of notes.
luckie.hoettemann (verified owner) –
One of my favourite fragrances for going out in the evening. Really like it.
S (verified owner) –
In my opinion, an overrated fragrance. Just kind of a sweet mess, and not pleasant to my nose at all.
Mango1320 –
It has a really nice rum note that is very prominent, especially in the beginning while its also blended well with tobacco and vanilla.
Tomas –
One of the best vanilla-tobacco scents. Cosy, sweet, creamy, a little bit boozy. For me it smells more nice on the woman, than man.
S (verified owner) –
Decent scent, somewhat boring though. Sweet, a bit boozy. Overall okay, performance is decent, mostly a skin close scent though.
