Si Rose Signature II Eau de Parfum
by Giorgio Armani
Si Rose Signature II Eau de Parfum from Giorgio Armani is a refined, floral-centered interpretation of the classic Si line, distinguished by its prominent rose accent. The fragrance unfolds as a lush, juicy rose with a subtle black currant jam note, giving it a fresh yet rich character that feels both modern and elegant. The integration of bergamot, mandarin orange, and iris adds a soft citrus-floral lift, while patchouli and ambrette lend a warm, delicate depth without dominating the composition. It is far more feminine and floral than the original Si, with less sharpness and more flow, making it a more wearable rose-forward alternative for those who find the original too woody or unbalanced. The scent evolves beautifully on skin over time, revealing a sweetly polished, yet not overly sweet profile with a notable longevity and a softly elevated sillage.
Pros
- +A highly sophisticated, elegant, and wearable rose-focused fragrance that stands out as a refined alternative to the original Si.
- +Strong longevity and a smooth, balanced development that feels rich without being heavy.
- +Ideal for daytime wear, special occasions, or for those seeking a more modern, floral, and youthful take on a classic Armani signature.
Cons
- −Has a slightly powdery or soapy character for some, which may not appeal to those seeking intense depth or a more mysterious aura.
- −Sillage is moderate to strong, but some find it too faint, especially later in the day.
- −Appears to be discontinued, making it rare and hard to obtain, despite being frequently praised.
