Initio Power Self Extrait
Description
A confidence-building floral-woody musk from Initio Parfums Privés. Power Self opens with a spark of pink pepper before settling into a bouquet of white rose, white flowers, magnolia and osmanthus, grounded by a musky, cedar-and-ambrox base. Initio frames its Hedonist/Psycho Fragrances line around mood and chemistry rather than pure perfumery tradition, and Power Self leans into that: it's built to feel bold, radiant and self-assured rather than quiet or shy.
