Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Rose Rouge Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper jammy rose, absolutely stunning to many with a delicious gourmand twist. However, for some, the patchouli and vetiver can go a bit 'off', so do yourself a favour and test it first, eh?

Our Verdict - Si Eau de Parfum
The Essence Vault's interpretation of Armani's Si (2013) - Christine Nagel's blackcurrant-rose-patchouli chypre-leaning feminine that defined a new sophisticated mainstream signature, here translated into a budget reading with the blackcurrant-rose-patchouli spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening and date wear.
