Which Should You Buy?
Magenta Tanzanite is a deeply polarising fragrance, earning both adoration and derision for its intense spice and tobacco profile. Those who get it, really get it, describing it as an intoxicating masterpiece, while others find it too medicinal, burnt, or just 'meh'. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
After Effect is Rebel Aromas' budget take on Initio's Side Effect - the same boozy rum-cinnamon-tobacco-vanilla skeleton, but flatter and louder up top, fading to a thin skin scent within a few hours where the original keeps building.
