Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Si
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.

Our Verdict - Inspired by Si
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Giorgio Armani's Si (2013) - the Christine Nagel cassis-rose-patchouli chypre feminine that became Armani's defining modern signature, here translated into a cassis-mandarin opening over may rose and a patchouli-vanilla close. Honest dupe-fidelity for daytime and date wear at a fraction of the designer price.
