I had yet to find my ultimate favorite perfume, until I stumbled across this in a Sephora in the states before it had been released in NZ.
Now I'm no perfume connoisseur so I can't tell you about the 'undertones' etc, however, in my personal preference this perfume was the combination of all the right smells. It had a hint of floral yet wasn't too over powering or sweet and if it's possible for a perfume to smell sophisticated and classy... this one does.
It's a beautiful scent, in a stunning bottle... although it's definitely on the higher end of the price spectrum, it's well worth it in my opinion.
While shopping one day I had no intention of buying a perfume but I love Armani diamonds and asked if I could have a sniff of Si and as they say the rest is history.. I brought the 30ml bottle for around $110
The bottle is pretty simple it's rectangular shape with Si printed in black writing, the black lid almost reminds me of a little flame.
On first spray I can't really get 1 note that I'm familiar with just a tart sweetness, but after a minute I start to get hints of rose and patchouli with a hint of vanilla. After about half an hour I can still smell the rose, vanilla and patchouli but I can now smell woody notes in the mix. This perfume lasts all day and even scents clothes after they have been washed.
This perfume is quite sweet and warming it's not really that different to flower bomb and La Vie Est Belle. Maybe a wee bit creamier but I can smell the similarities, there is nothing really wowing or mystical, it doesn't make me want to wear it 24/7. I had been enjoying it when I first purchased it but now after 1/3 of a bottle I'm kind of over it. It is nice and I am probably just being really fussy. I think it would suit both young and mature ladies
