The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2025 by Initio Parfums Prives, Power Self is designed to enhance the wearer's confidence and intensity through its distinctive blend of spicy, floral, and woody notes. The fragrance opens with a burst of pink pepper, adding a sharp contrast against the soft florals that follow. White rose and magnolia form the heart, creating an enveloping warmth while osmanthus adds subtle depth. The base notes of musk and ambrox super anchor this composition in a modern, sensual embrace.
Apply two sprays to pulse points — the warmth of your skin helps release the initial burst of pink pepper. Allow a few minutes before dressing as the floral heart develops closer to the skin over time.
