Sì Eau de Parfum
A modern feminine chypre celebrating Italian joie de vivre. Blackcurrant nectar and freesia blend over a rich patchouli-vanilla base in an understated luxury composition.
Sì Eau de Parfum opens on Blackcurrant Nectar and Mandarin, moves through Freesia and Rose, and dries down to Patchouli and Vanilla. At $95 - $155 it is a designer-tier price you pay for the name as much as the juice, with moderate to long lasting (6h - 8h) on skin. A relatively safe blind buy for most wardrobes.

EXPERT ANALYSIS, COMPOSITION & PERFORMANCE
Sì Eau de Parfum is Giorgio Armani's 2013 eau de parfum from perfumer Julie Massé. Our analysis examines its three-phase structure, its longevity and projection profile, and the occasions it serves best.
The Opening
From the first spray, Blackcurrant Nectar, Mandarin, Bergamot establish a bright citrus and juicy fruit character that defines the top of the composition.
The Heart
Beneath the opening, a floral heart of Freesia, Rose, Jasmine forms the signature most people will recognise.
The Dry-Down
Hours later it resolves into a dry woods and golden amber foundation, Patchouli, Vanilla, Ambergris, that determines the lasting memory of the scent.
Who Should Buy Sì Eau de Parfum
Sì Eau de Parfum leans feminine but is wearable by anyone who enjoys the style. Its season vector points strongest to spring, and its day/night balance makes it best suited to versatile day-to-night wear. If you gravitate toward bright citrus and juicy fruit compositions and want strong longevity, it belongs on your shortlist.
Performance and quality are not in question here. The honest caveat is ubiquity: Sì Eau de Parfum is widely worn, so if smelling distinctive matters more to you than smelling excellent, factor that in.
