Initio Side Effect, an Addictive Spicy Amber Fragrance

Side Effect is a unisex fragrance launched in 2016 by Initio. A distinctive spicy amber fragrance that balances tart fruit with a smoky base.

A Three-Part Composition

The opening is vibrant and intoxicating: raspberry provides a tart fruitiness, while rum adds a warm, liqueur-like depth. The heart is spiced with warming cinnamon, while hedione brings floral clarity and saffron adds a precious, leathery note. The base settles with character: tobacco unfolds its smoky depth, while sandalwood envelops it in creamy sweetness. A powerful sillage with 8–12 hours of longevity.

When to Wear It

Side Effect is best reserved for intense occasions: worn in winter or autumn, it reveals its full richness in the evening and at special events.

The Maison Matheis Decant

Each sample is a decant prepared by hand by our team from authenticated original bottles, transferred to a labeled glass vial and stored away from light. The ideal size for discovering Side Effect on your skin in real-life conditions—or taking it with you wherever you go.
