Oil Perfumery Impression of Initio - Side Effect

The roller ball glides on smooth and mess-free, which is exactly what I needed for quick touch-ups between meetings. The 10 ml size slips right into my jacket pocket without bulging, and the scent itself is rich enough that a few swipes last me through the evening. I’ve already ordered a backup.
