Si by Giorgio Armani

It is elegant but very heavy; if I wear it close to my face, it overwhelms my senses. For me, it only works in the office during cold weather, not to feel fresh or uplifted. Not one of my favourites; I think it could be annoying to people nearby.

I like it; I notice a better integration as the vanilla and woody notes dry down. I feel it is special and unique. I want to try the other flankers, especially Sì Passione Intense.

I love it; it is too elegant and addictive. Perfect for dates.

I like it quite a bit. It is sophisticated, elegant, and suitable for daytime. When it dries down on my skin, it smells like a high-end facial cream.

It was my first signature perfume. At 20, I loved it and wore it daily. Then I switched to 212 and the Sì was relegated. Ten years later, I smelled it again and couldn’t resist, so I re-bought it. It is incredible how scents transport us. Today my bond has changed: it feels heavy, very sweet, I struggle to wear it, and it hurts because it was my great perfume love. I have it in 100ml with cream and gel. I will use it, it will last a good while, but I don’t know if I would buy it again. Perhaps nostalgia will fade and I will go for a smaller bottle. Anyway, I think it is a great fragrance: warm, standout, and distinctive. Today I prefer softer scents.

Pleasant but a bit underwhelming. On my skin, it’s a soft spicy floral; I can’t detect either the patchouli or the vanilla. Unfortunately, it has poor sillage and lasts a maximum of five hours. Without a doubt, I’ll stick with other Armani perfumes. Don’t buy it blindly.

Definitely, the Si range is excellent; I own several, but I wouldn’t buy the Eclat again. The rest? Absolutely, yes 🥰

I have an old decant, so the review might not be very representative of what a new bottle should be like, but it smells of patchouli, patchouli, and more patchouli.

It’s a perfume with presence, woody, with a clear vanilla base. It has good projection and longevity. But I see it as something for adults. What happens for me is that it’s my mother’s signature scent, and I find it hard to move away from the concept of an adult, formal aroma when I smell it. It’s associated in my mind with a coquettish and elegant lady ❤️

I bought it in a hurry and, honestly, my respects because its evolution was positive. Although I’m not usually into sweet or heavy perfumes, this one slowly won me over. On my skin, the cashmere and vanilla stand out; I barely perceive the florals and woods, resulting in an exquisite liquor-like quality without being heavy or loud at first. When it settles, it becomes like a blackcurrant liqueur but powdery, radiating authority. I noticed that over six months of use, its longevity has become longer with each passing month. Con: on me, it doesn’t project and lacks the sillage I would have liked; I hope that changes with time. Edit after more than a year: after saying sweets aren’t my thing, I must say this has all my heart. It seems you have to let the composition touch the oxygen and transform into magic. 12 hours of brutal performance; wherever I go, it’s praised, I sleep, and the next day I still feel small bursts and the scent close to the skin. On me, it’s slightly sweet, slightly fruity, powdery, patchouli-like but also greeny, and it’s beautiful haha, I’m in love.

It’s that perfume where, upon greeting someone, you shout within seconds: ‘You smell wonderful, what is it?’. It took me a while to identify it among the mistakes or flankers, but I now have my answer. For me, this fragrance is the very definition of womanboss

One of my absolute favourites. It lasts a long time on the skin, fixes beautifully and is noticeable from afar. It’s sweet, feminine and I love it

It’s a real gem, with projection and longevity at 9/10. An elegant, classic and timeless scent, perfect for young girls or ladies, ideal for working in enclosed offices or going out to dinner. The bottle is fine and elegant. I will buy it again and recommend it 100% for gifting or blind buying if you’re looking for something adult and elegant

ETERNAL LOVE FOR THIS CLASSIC. It’s one of my favourite perfumes in life. So fresh, beautiful and elegant. I discovered it while looking for a gift for my mum and fell in love the moment I smelled it. It was her signature scent for a long time. Although it has become very popular in the last decade, it’s one of the few popular scents I never get tired of; every time I return to it, it still fascinates me as much as the first day. I don’t even mind that so many people wear it, whereas I usually seek the original. It’s a delight: that sharp patchouli, the accompanying freesia, and very subtle notes of wood and vanilla. A fresh and exquisite sweetness that doesn’t overwhelm; on the contrary, it leaves you wanting to smell it more. It has incredible homogeneity, with every note in its place and quantity to create this balanced marvel. It’s super versatile, although I prefer it for daytime occasions. It smells of pure elegance. The trail and longevity are an absolute ten; I can smell it until the next day and even after showering, a lovely trail remains on the skin. It’s always a pleasure to reunite with Si

Sweet but fresh. Intense yet not cloying, suitable for any season, it lasts hours and hours on the skin and clothes without needing to bathe in it; with just a couple of sprays it is more than sufficient. This perfume is elegant and seductive, perfect for special occasions; it was the one at my wedding and to this day I would choose it again. Despite the bottle being five years old, it remains as good as the first day. I have very little left and as soon as it runs out, I will undoubtedly replenish it. One of the best perfumes I have ever had, I simply adore it!
