Power Self
Power Self by Initio is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. The house lists its notes as osmanthus, rose, magnolia, pink pepper, ambroxan, musk and cedarwood, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Listed notes
- Osmanthus Apricot-and-leather floral. Unusual, warm and very wearable.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Magnolia Lemony white floral. Bright and clean rather than heavy.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
