A seductive unisex fragrance launched in 2016 from France, Side Effect is an intense oriental-spicy creation known for its bold, addictive character. Part of the prestigious Initio Carnal Blends collection, this fragrance blends rich spices, tobacco, and creamy vanilla to create a magnetic and unforgettable signature designed to evoke passion and confidence.

Olfactory Notes
Top notes: Cinnamon Bark, Rum
Heart notes: Tobacco, Saffron
Base notes: Sandalwood, Hedione

A captivating composition that opens with warm cinnamon and boozy rum richness, unfolds into a deep heart of tobacco and saffron, and settles into a smooth woody base of sandalwood and hedione. The result is bold, warm, and intensely seductive with a luxurious oriental-spicy character.

Ideal Occasion
Perfect for evening wear, date nights, or special occasions when you want a bold and unforgettable signature scent. Its rich oriental profile makes it especially suited for fall and winter, delivering strong presence and sensual appeal.


This unisex fragrance receives universal praise with customers calling it an "amazing scent" and "best smell ever." Shoppers highlight excellent quality, beautiful packaging, and authentic products. One noted it "smells very pungent off the first spray, but after it soaks in amazing smell." Fast shipping and professional service consistently mentioned.
