Sì by Giorgio Armani Perfume Review






I bought this perfume before checking out any reviews, as it was an impulse buy from Boots after instantly falling in love with it.  Even though I’ve read quite a few bad reviews since I have to say I love it! I love a sweet perfume; my past favourites have been Marc Jacobs – Lola, Victor and Rolf – Flowerbomb and DKNY – Be Delicious, Fresh Blossom. You can kind of see a floral fruity sweet theme going on there.
The Giorgio Armani website describes it as:

At once chic, voluptuous, intense, and soft, Sì lingers on the skin and enchants the senses. The distinguished and elegant olfactory result plays on emotion, true to the Giorgio Armani couture spirit. The perfume combines 3 notes: blackcurrant nectar, modern chypre, and blond wood musk with touches of freesia and May rose. This new fragrance reveals a free, passionate, loving, and vibrant woman.


I do agree with that description (why are perfume descriptions so over the top though?!) but I have to say it is a very sweet scent that might not be to everyone’s liking. I’m not sure I would describe it as “chic” but it is definitely intense and absolutely gorgeous. I would say it is sweet, feminine and youthful. You can smell the floral notes coming through and I’m not exactly sure about the “blackcurrant” but there is definitely a strong fruity top note that I love. I actually find this really long lasting and dries down to a lovely musky finish with hints of vanilla.
The look of the bottle is expensive with the gold trim and the very solid black lid which you would hope to expect from a high end brand such as Giorgio Armani, plus the actual liquid is a lovely rosey/blush colour and it looks great on my dressing table lined up with my other perfumes.
I bought the 50ml for £59.00 in boots and it came with a cheeky free clutch bag which was quite nice of them!

This perfume is clearly not to everyone’s liking but if you are into sweet, fruity and floral fragrances this is a definite must!
