Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Si EDT
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.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Si - 42 Rollerball EDP
A handbag-friendly take on Giorgio Armani Si, this rollerball nails the blackcurrant-rose opening but the rollerball format and thin patchouli-vanilla base mean it fades to almost nothing well before the original's celebrated all-day performance.
