The review
On paper, Intro Aftermath is a reasonable bet if you want Side Effect for less.
Fragrance World sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Side Effect's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Fragrance World publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on saffron and cinnamon, turns to rum and tobacco, and settles into sandalwood, Hedione and vanilla. That is the brief Intro Aftermath is working from.
Top
- saffron
- cinnamon
Heart
- rum
- tobacco
Base
- sandalwood
- Hedione
- vanilla
For the one who wants a hypnotic, intoxicating trail of boozy rum, sweet tobacco and warm spice that lingers seductively long after the room empties.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
