Addictive Vibration

Whoever is coming up with the names of these fragrances is genuinely a genius, because this is so addictive. You guys say it leans feminine because of the florals and the sweetness, grow up. It’s not the 90s anymore. Not all men have to wear ultra masculine barbershop colognes that 80% of people don’t even like anymore. Is it my favorite Initio? No, Absolute Aphrodisiac and Musk Therapy are still tied, but Addictive Vibration is close. I tried it at a Dillards recently, and this (along with Lift Me Up and Can’t Get Enough, which is a touch bit feminine for me, but I still rly like it) and yeah, this fragrance is just a banger. Initio hardly ever misses (except for Magnetic Blend 7, which just smells like body odor to me)

Honey white floral that smells more floral than sweet. Well blended, performance is not the best. Slight citrus undertones as well. Not bad

Smells like grape candy in the best way. I’m a masculine man and I wear it and receive compliments.

This reminds me of the OG alien. Absolutely love and glad I discovered this because the reformulation doesn’t last an hour on me.

I own a lot of Initio…but I will not own this. Punchy synthetic orange blossom is all I get

I hate the floral note in this it feels synthetic cheap and made to be feminine Initio’s perfumes may have great notes but there’s just something that makes them feel cheap and synthetic exactly like Lorenzo pazzaglia’s perfumes

At first I was skeptical because 1) I don't like the bottle, 2) the first Initio the salesman gave me to smell was an awful, stuffy banana vanilla. But oh my lords. What a gorgeous scent. Addictive Vibration opens up with a sweet, airy, beautiful blend of apple and orange blossoms, a bit fruity but not juicy – think of a whiff down a road covered in their trees during the spring equinox. They're sprinkled, not covered, with a gooey golden honey, and slowly the honey drips down to greet you. Sweeter, sweeter, and it keeps getting sweeter yet more animalic than it is articially sugary. The florals intensifies and ripens, making way into a creamy, woodier orchid. The orchids are not all mature; some are still green, budding, a fresh variant to accompany the colorful blossoms. They become tea-like from the woodiness. And the honey is immortal, unrotting, as it develops a lovely white musk floating above the floral arrangements. (Perhaps the creamy, slightly musky green-white floral is what's reminiscent of Mugler's Alien, although to me the difference between its jasmine and Vibration's blossoms are as clear as day.) I can see myself wearing this all summer and spring, sometimes switching with Des Merveilles. Both are so airy and charming, beautiful in a soft, gentle breeze sense. The sillage is amazing, longevity is almost eternal, and already got me a compliment just from the spray test. Perhaps come spring I will get a full bottle.

2026 batch, 2 sprays on a test strip, next to other perfumes on test strips. This one is the most dominant, the room smells like floral, boozy honey. It’s between Tilleul and Naxos, reminding me of both but better than both. Smelling it up close is feminine, but in the air it’s more balanced, suitable for masculine use as well.

I get a floral sun tan oil from the 70s, maybe the early 80s. It's a sweet oily melange that is very pretty and pleasant, but the oily aspects in the back are 100% something teenagers used to slather themselves with to turn brown, when I was really really young. It's a weird glimpse into the past, but it isn't my vibe.

Well, if you enjoy Alien, you will like this one. I found it for a great price, but otherwise I would have passed.

i have been wearing this for a week and every day that i put it on, i fall more and more in love. this is a beautiful sweet scent. the honey note is not animalic and it doesn’t go sour (i find that honey sometimes smells like saliva). it has a very distinct grape opening, like sweet grape candy then dries down to honey. it has crazy lasting power. it’s not a room filler but it’s still loud if that makes any sense at all. it is gorgeous layered with anything vanilla but my favorite combination is with EP Bois Imperial. it was not love at first sniff but i fell hard when i did. today, i wore another perfume but then realized after a few hours that i missed this scent. definitely addictive for me.

It is super loud! Like head achingly so. Reminds me of the perfume counters at the airport.

Wow I just tried this at the store and I dont know why but the apple is giving me YSL Y vibes + with some orange blossom. Don't care if it's got more feminine votes it slaps. Proper banger surprised it's only got 4 out of 5.

I really like this and from the opening it’s an Apple and honey delight. I’d never smelt Alien until a colleague sprayed it on herself at work and instantly I thought she’d sprayed AV. I think the apple blossom is the note pick up from both but AV for me has an almost waxy smell which I like. The honey is delightful and adds a light sweetness which fades into a simple floral musk. It’s definitely one of the most feminine leaning scents in my collection but on the right day I feel I can rock it. Lasts well and for the first couple of hours projects well. Suitable for day or evening wear and id say formal or casual. Only time I won’t wear it is in high heat. 8.3/10

this is a very pleasant scent, but being honest, it smells like a niche version of alien by mugler, so if you have that dna then you don’t need to spend the coin on this bottle 😂

WOW!!!! Oh my god!! To start off with, I initially first smelt addictive vibration in 2023 and fell in love with the opening scent. All I can say is imagine an apple pie on a windowsill with an apple orchid in the back. I unfortunately lost which scent it was until I finally purchased another initio sample, specifically this fragrance, and man oh mannn. It brought me back to that exact picture in my mind from three years ago. I may be lucky that addictive vibration vibes well with my PH, definitely don’t blind buy any initios, but I am so happy I found this fragrance again. 10/10.

This fragrance has me in a chokehold I feel like if alien and so scandal had a baby it would be addictive vibration. I absolutely love this scent!

Oh dear oh dear, addictive is definitely not the word I’d use for Addictive Vibration. More accurate descriptions come to mind, such as vulgar, crude, tacky, cloying. This is nothing short of a sickly sweet mess. Notes aside, it smells like a cluttered concoction of dried fruits, namely apple, paired with an overtly sugary off-brand cola and gummy sweets. It just gets sweeter and sweeter with the thick honeyed orange blossom, whilst the fruitiness gives the faint impression of apple tea. The idea is solid, the execution is poor. This could’ve been a really nice perfume if it didn’t lean so heavily into this awful saccharine facet. Really not enjoyable.

Very nice and highly underrated. In the realm of Joop Homme and Creed Original Santal. I have both. Edit: @everybodyhateschris You also noticed that it smells like Joop Hoome from the late 90s early 2000s. I know my nose wasnt lying.

Received a sample of this with my fragrancebuy order. My first thoughts were “this is Alien but muskier”. While it does have similarities to Alien, it’s certainly distinct enough to put it in a different category. Alien is a sharp metallic floral that stays in the front of your nose. It’s linear, unchanging and pungent and none of that is a bad thing. Addictive Vibration is warmer, intense, more sultry. It has a presence that’s deeper than Alien. There is something untrustworthy about it. It smells like a hug from a prostitute. Definitely has similar DNA to mid 2000s celebrity perfumes.

Sweet and warm lilac bomb with a notable amount of honey. Bright and refreshing fragrance, and high quality as Initio tends to uphold.

Feminine version of "Back to Black" by Killian! By feminine, I mean just slightly more feminine, as both perfumes have a very prominent honey note. This one is more of a fresh, plain apple jam (not an autumn vibe) with honey and maybe a flower, whichever is mentioned in the pyramid. Musk makes this scent more smoky, making it unisex and "heavy" imo. I prefer this over "Back to Black" as Initio produced a more understandable scent which unfolds better on the skin or clothes, giving a confident projection of posh honey. With Killian's one is more messier, as (as much as I wanted to get that one first) I can't get anything other than a dust cloud with a blob of honey, despite its beautiful notes. This one is, in fact, an addictive vibration, perfect for colder weather and great for layering or on its own. 10/10 for me, but I am not crazy critique of perfumes as I am easy to be impressed by scents lol.

na poczatku miod i kwiaty a pozniej czuc meski sklep z garniturami. Na skorze slodycz nie ginie tak szybko jak przy innych pozostawiajac samą skóre i to jest jego zaleta

This fragrance in my wardrobe corner for a long time, I didn't wear it for awhile and might overlooked it, I wore it last week, OMG it's absolutely beautiful, especially the dry down, perfect blended with honey, orange blossom and apple blossom, very good longevity, a hidden gem for sure I have to rescored, Addictive Vibration is 9.5/10

This is another scent that has grown on me and one I’ve thought about over the last year since sampling. I enjoyed it when I first smelt it but while it wasn’t a love, it made a lasting impression. This is a beautiful, clean girl, sweet honey and apple blossom scent. It does remind me of Trussardi “Limitless Shopping Via della Spiga Trussardi” which I decluttered as while I loved that one, it just reminded me to much of shampoo. Addictive Vibration doesn’t give off this vibe for me. While it does smell similar, it’s definitely a higher quality blend that I’m just loving currently.

One of the most unique Initios and honey fragrances ever. Back when they actually didn't just make rose fragrances.

My favorite initio! This smells so damn good~ The musk on my skin smells phenomenal and lasts hours! Have to get a decant ASAP. It's a little sweet from the honey but the vibe it gives off is clean and almost angelic; not that you have to be to wear this. Personality in this fragrance is 10/10 imo

One of the best honey fragrances ever!!

Smells a bit like the old formula alien , but with a masculine touch and make it with orange blossom instead of jasmine. At least on my skin. It’s a bit more woodier, the florals are a bit sweeter from the honey that gives a bit of a light animalic touch. In the heat like above 80° F, it’s a bit lighter and muskier . It’s very nice, longevity is great and projection is alright but yeah , to me this is full bottle worthy but I already have a few scent profiles similar to this one. Super sexy

I love this perfume! It is so well blended that the notes just all sing together perfectly. I really love to wear it and find it hard to describe, but I know I will never be without it in my collection.
