From the house of Initio Parfums, Narcotic Delight is the latest masterpiece in The Carnal Blends Collection, which is a homage to the experiece of watching and being watched, with sensual notes of vanilla bean, pink pepper, cognac and a sweet cigar smokiness with a playful touch of cherry. The sultry scent evokes a theme of interconnected, exhibitionist, mystery and allure.

This fragrance follows in the footsteps of Initio’s vision of creating scents that stimulate the senses, emotions, and imaginations of the wearer. At the heart of the fragrance lies hedione, a molecule that stimulates the brain’s pleasure centers and acts as the final trigger in a formula that is decidedly carnal and acts as an aphrodisiac, as it activates the pheromone receptors.

On average, Initio fragrances contain 10-15x the amount of hedione of other brands. This overdose effect is the very inspiration of Narcotic Delight.
