Behind the house is Julien Sprecher, the entrepreneur who had already created Parfums de Marly in 2009. With Initio he chose a different path: perfume not as an ornament, but as a force able to act on those who wear it and on those around them. In Paris the house welcomes its guests at Le 320, the boutique on rue Saint-Honoré it describes as “a confidential, mysterious space”.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe name comes from Latin and evokes both the beginning and initiation: the idea is to bring perfume back to its original power. Initio, as the house's own presentation puts it, was born “out of the desire to restore the greatness of perfume”. Its manifesto fits in a few lines: “We create functional fragrances with scientifically measurable effects. We believe that fragrances not only make us smell good but also have the power to make us feel good”. That is why every collection revolves around ingredients chosen for what they trigger: musk and castoreum, oud, Hedione.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe collection has grown chapter by chapter. 2015 saw the debut of the Absolutes, which the house calls “raw, untamed, and ancestral” formulas: Absolute Aphrodisiac, Blessed Baraka and Mystic Experience, followed in 2016 by Addictive Vibration. Magnetic Blend 7, a musk also designed to be layered with the other fragrances, dates from the same debut. In 2016 came the Carnal Blends, ignited by “an overdose of Hedione”: Side Effect and High Frequency, then Psychedelic Love (2017), Atomic Rose (2019) and Narcotic Delight (2024). 2018 is the year of Oud for Greatness, the first chapter of the Black Gold Project devoted to oud, completed by Oud for Happiness (2021) and Oud for Greatness Neo (2024), and of Rehab, the first Extrait of the Hedonist collection, later joined by Musk Therapy (2021), Paragon (2022) and Power Self (2025). In 2025, ten years after its creation, Initio began a collaboration with dsm-firmenich to measure the emotional responses, conscious and unconscious, to its fragrances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bottles are instantly recognisable: the same solid shape, a squared cap and a metal plaque at the centre, with one colour for each collection. Black for the Absolutes, deep purple for the Carnal Blends, white for the Hedonist line, black and gold for the Black Gold Project, with a decoration the house links to sacred geometry and the tree of life. The reference size is 90 ml. The best loved are named by Initio itself among its best sellers, “easy to love, difficult to describe, impossible to forget”: Side Effect, Oud for Greatness, Musk Therapy, Atomic Rose and Absolute Aphrodisiac. In 2026 the house opened its first store in London, in Covent Garden.

Oud for Greatness Neo is born from exactly this idea, the freshest, most contemporary reinterpretation of one of the maison's most recognised names, the idea the brand sums up in the word neuroscents. According to the official description, oud works on mental clarity and emotional depth, while lavender and bergamot together soothe and strengthen the mind, and fir balsam brings positive energy and determination. It is no simple restyling of the original: Neo lightens the smoky, resinous structure of Oud for Greatness and replaces it with a bergamot opening that makes everything more immediate, brighter and easier to wear, without losing the stature of the original composition. It is the version of Oud for Greatness made for those who want the same strength with less weight on the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Evolves on Skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the first few minutes Oud for Greatness Neo opens on a clean, citrusy bergamot that sets the stage without ever becoming the real star. After about half an hour the heart takes shape with a spicy aromatic accord: saffron brings warmth and depth, fir balsam adds a fresh, almost alpine resin, and Orpur lavender ties it all together with a clean, slightly herbaceous note. As the hours go by the oud comes through more clearly, but here it is softer, sweeter and creamier than the smokier, more smouldering rendering of the original Oud for Greatness, while the musk in the base closes with a warm, enveloping trail that stays with the skin for several hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho We Recommend It For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOud for Greatness Neo is for those who love oud but prefer it less smoky and brighter than the classics of the genre.

Here the idea is direct: tell the story of natural oud in its most majestic, intense form, without softening it. Saffron and lavender open the way, but the heart of the composition stays firmly anchored to oud, wrapped only at the end in patchouli and musk. It's Initio's most powerful, most direct take on oud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Evolves on Skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the first minutes Oud for Greatness opens on lavender, saffron and nutmeg, a bright, spicy entrance that makes the oud at the heart less sharp than you'd expect. Customers who try it in our boutique often describe it as a clean, woody oud rather than an animalic one, with its more resinous, smoky side only emerging as the hours pass. In the base, patchouli and musk wrap around the oud without covering it, in a trail that wearers almost always call extremely long: it's not unusual to still catch it by the end of the day, with a longevity among the highest we've seen cross the counter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho We Recommend It For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend Oud for Greatness for autumn and winter, when its spicy warmth finds the right temperature to unfold.

As the minutes pass, the fragrance moves toward its heart, where vanilla and amber blend with castoreum: the animalic facet softens into a warm, almost \"boozy\" nuance reminiscent of macerated dried fruit, while the floral base turns slightly powdery. In its final stage, musk and amber build an enveloping, long-lasting base; castoreum remains present but softens further, adding depth without ever becoming aggressive. It's an evolution that favours the skin: the longer it dries down, the more intimate and magnetic it becomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho We Recommend Absolute Aphrodisiac To\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolute Aphrodisiac is the choice for anyone seeking a magnetic fragrance, one that stays close to the skin and reveals itself above all to those who come near.

The brand presents it as the fragrance of the unspeakable, where passion and emotion are laid bare, unfiltered. It's a direct, tactile take on the sensuality that defines the Carnal Blends collection, expressed here not in a floral key but in an amber, spicy, boozy guise, with an almost late-night-lounge character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Evolves on Skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening is a warm burst of rum and cinnamon, a boozy accord reminiscent of a cocktail sipped on a winter evening. The heart reveals the fragrance's pulsing soul: tobacco turns dense and enveloping, saffron adds a slightly bitter, precious nuance, while Hedione widens the composition's breath and amplifies its projection, keeping the blend from ever feeling heavy. In the base, vanilla becomes the absolute protagonist, supported by sandalwood, which lends softness and persistence: this is the stage where Side Effect turns into a warm, sweet, enveloping trail that can stay on the skin for many hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho We Recommend Side Effect To\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide Effect is the ideal choice for anyone who loves amber, boozy fragrances with a strong but never excessive character, and for those looking for a more tactile, smoky alternative to classic vanilla gourmands. It's a genuinely unisex fragrance, perfect for anyone who wants to leave a precise impression of themselves without resorting to predictable compositions. Ideal for autumn and winter evenings, when its warm, enveloping character reaches its fullest expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFragrance Characteristics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eIntensity\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e★★★★☆\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eLongevity\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e★★★★☆\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSillage\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e★★★★☆\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eGender\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eUnisex\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur Opinion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/chi-siamo\"\u003eboutique\u003c\/a\u003e, Side Effect is one of the Initio fragrances we often recommend to people looking for something different from the usual florals or woods: its rum, tobacco and vanilla accord has an almost cinematic character, evoking a smoky lounge and a glass of aged rum from the very first minutes.
