Which Should You Buy?
This EDT flanker is a divisive one, splitting opinion between those who find it a lighter, fresher take on the original, and those who feel it loses the EDP's magic, becoming generic. It's discontinued now, much to the chagrin of its ardent fans.
Follows Giorgio Armani Si's blackcurrant-rose-patchouli formula, though the woody-vanilla base is simpler and less chypre-like than the original's layered signature.
