Description
After Effect is an amber fragrance for women and men, released by French Avenue in 2021 and bottled at extrait strength. Cinnamon and saffron lead, so the first impression is hot spice with a slightly leathery, golden edge.
Soft white flowers come through in the middle and take some of the heat out of the spice. Rum and tobacco give it a boozy, darker side, and the base settles on creamy sandalwood and sweet woods that sit close to the skin as it dries down.
Inspired By
After Effect is commonly compared by wearers to Initio Side Effect, which shares its rum, tobacco and cinnamon character. French Avenue does not name an inspiration.
The comparison refers to scent profile only. After Effect is French Avenue’s own composition in its own bottle and packaging. Scent Limited is not affiliated with or endorsed by Initio Parfums Prives, and all brand names belong to their respective owners.
