What matches: Alexandria names Side Effect as its model, and its Amazon listing gives five of the six main notes Initio lists, rum, cinnamon, tobacco, saffron and sandalwood, with the vanilla Initio describes; on Fragrantica 65 of 119 voters say it smells like Side Effect.

What it does worse: Initio's Hedione, an airy jasmine-like molecule, isn't among the notes Alexandria names, and Alexandria adds musk.
