My Impression

This perfume reminds me quite a lot of Side Effect. It is a cherry woody tobacco perfume, but at the same time slightly boozy, and its general appeal is quite good. If you are going to smell it for the first time you will probably like it a lot, but I should say it gets boring quickly. Performance wise, the current batches are weak, so if you want to buy it I would say get an old batch. Also, IFRA is apparently going to ban the cherry note soon, so in the future there may be big differences in how the perfume smells.
