When to wear it
Worked out from its notes, the way the scent finder scores them.
Best for date nights and nights out, in cold weather.
Side Effect comes across bold and confident: its spicy, warm and tobacco notes fill a room. Skip it at the gym, where it gets heavy fast. Heat can make it cloying, so it's at its best from autumn to spring.
