Dark, Rich & Sexy Sweet But the smell of Side Effect almost eliminates these categorization discussions as it’s simply impressive. Rum, vanilla, tobacco, cinnamon, and leather are the main notes.

This is certainly the definition of a stand-out perfume. If you like to be in the center of attention, this is for you.

The fragrance nods to powerful symbols and ideology, as reflected in the bottle’s design. It ties into the concept of the Tree of Life, which symbolises the connection between the fertility of earth and heaven, the connection between mankind and God. It doesn’t take long for the oud to come through. Any oud fragrance, especially a relatively pricey niche one, inevitably leads to the question: but is it real oud? The brand claims to use both natural oud wood and agar wood oil in this composition.Highly concentrated and with the finest natural oud oil, "OUD FOR GREATNESS" is a particularly prestigious oud perfume with an expressive signature. Oud For Greatness will make you say 'wow'. It’s fresh because of the cool lavender, it’s spicy because of the saffron and it’s sensual because of the soft musks. For us, this is an oud everyone could love as its presence is not overpowering; it's beautifully balanced with the earthiness of patchouli and the finest natural ouds from India. Oud for Greatness opens with a dark, smoky woody oud mixed with some sweet saffron, lavender, and a touch of nutmeg.

Don’t be put off by the name of this fragrance. This is NOT one of those traditional skanky animalic type of oud scents. This is a sophisticated, well put together scent that contains natural Indian oud oil. This works well all year round, except in the high summer heat: special occasions, dates, work/office safe (spray lightly), casual, nights out, etc… This is super long lasting! Atomic Rose is an EDP and jumps off your skin for the first few hours (up to 6 feet) leaving a gorgeous scent trail.

But does it live up to its name? Initio Parfums Prives are a fairly new French luxury niche perfume house that are making waves in the fragrance community. The fragrance begins in the first second with a very abstract sweetness. One could say it is the smell of sugar in its pure form. It is as if every particle has been taken out of the sugar until only fibres can be recognised, which consist of nothing but messenger substances that create a feeling of happiness in us. There is little room for interpretation and associations are categorically rejected by the sensation. It is almost as if the reaction is the only indication that something can actually be smelled. It is this sweetness that gives the fragrance a beguiling character: It arouses curiosity, it fills; it is addictive. Immediately afterwards, the oud joins in with all the other scents that support the overall work.
