Giorgio Armani Sì is a sweet, fruity floral built around mandarin orange, blackcurrant liqueur and May rose; it has been discontinued, and it leans clearly feminine, best suited to fall and winter evenings.

What does Sì (2014) (Eau de Parfum Intense) smell like?

It opens bright and juicy with mandarin orange, bergamot and blackcurrant liqueur, softened a little by freesia. In the heart, May rose and neroli absolute carry the floral side, while osmanthus and artemisia nudge it toward a powdery, spicy tone. The base dries down warm and gourmand, with vanilla, patchouli and ambroxan adding a woody backbone.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with summer a small minority. It is linked mostly to night outs and evenings, though daily wear has its place too. Most voters read it as feminine.
