Real talk
Side Effect skips the usual fragrance playbook and drops you straight into the heart notes. If you are looking for a slow reveal, look elsewhere. Its warmth lingers indefinitely.Side Effect
The cumin doesn't apologize. That's the point. Plum and honey keep it approachable. The combination of tobacco, honey, and vanilla creates a warm signature that feels both classic and unexpected.Tobacco 01
