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.
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Giorgio Armani Si (2013) - blackcurrant nectar, rose and vanilla translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
