Gives the “come closer” energy
Initio Side Effect 🤎
Honestly… a little too masculine for me to wear, BUT OMGGG I looooove it on my husband. 😮💨🔥
It’s warm, boozy, sweet, spicy, and sexy without trying too hard. There’s something about the way it smells on him that is just SO GOOD. Definitely gives “come closer” energy. 😂
Not my personal signature scent, but on my husband? 10/10. Please keep wearing this. 🤎
