My Impression

In terms of scent beauty, it is one of the sexiest boozy perfumes. Side Effect gives me a boozy feeling with a cherry vibe. It greets you at the opening with rum, tobacco and spices, then the perfume gets warmer with the effect of the rum and tobacco, but at the same time that rum air still stays clearly noticeable. It is a perfume with a very high general appeal, almost everyone likes it, but it has a batch problem. If you can find a batch from before 2019, don't miss it, because its performance is said to be very good. The performance of the newer ones is not good, you could call it a skin scent.
