Sì Passione Intense

✨I adore. This is one of my favorite perfumes in my collection. The patchouli and cedar balances out the black currant so it’s not so syrupy and sickingly sweet. ✨ this channels “Jessica Rabbit” vibes to me. It’s sexy, sharp, & inviting. Passione Intense smells like a classic tease lol. Doesn’t smell cheap; doesn’t smell too grown. ✨The word “intense” is a little misleading, the projection seems fairly normal. But that’s a plus bc it’s not offensive at all. But I would love if it were a little more beast mode. I’ve had strangers tell me it fills the room and they love it! I get many compliments while wearing this. ✨Ik people hate flankers of flankers but I understand this one. The original Si passione is too... fruity for me. It clashes with my chemistry, and makes me smell almost tart and stale 🤢 but PASSIONE INTENSE... ugh 😍 the woody notes and the dry down, it truly compliments me. ✨overall I rate an 9/10 and I DO keep a backup in stock. I’d recommend this to the sexy sweetheart types who look for something different than anyone else, light but heavy enough to make a statement when passing by someone. (I also don’t know where people get this “shampoo scent” from... I’m a hairstylist and am surrounded by hair products ALL day lol, this smells nothing like shampoo or chemically heavy product)

I know that no rose is listed, but on me this doesn't smell jasmine-y at all! On me it's a soapy, jammy, rose that dances all the lines between a fruity floral, a fruitchouli, and a powdery, woody, musk! I didn't expect to like this at all, because syrup anything is not a note that usually works for me, but in this, it is so smooth, and delicately sweet, blended expertly to fall from that top right into a powdery sweet floral creating a jammy rosy-floral! It's a transformative fragrance to say the very least. I'm super impressed with it's longevity and sillage as well. One spray on my hand during a testing session with my husband and this became an overall favorite among 10 we tried. His number one was Libre Intense EDP, and 2 was Mon Paris, but after an hour, we revisited the patches of skin we tested them on, and this one was a tie with Libre Intense EDP as it had the best dry down and longevity to reach that #1. I think this is an incredibly sexy fragrance, and a hell of a performer without being at all heavy. It has perfect sillage and is delicate enough to be recognizeable and apparent, but not obnoxious. I will definitely be trying the other flankers, and I'll be buying a FSB of this one! This was quite a surprise for me.

Lovely perfume. I thought I was using the original Si passione this entire time and for the life of me couldn’t understand the negative reviews. Turns out I’ve been using the intense and after smelling the original passione, I know understand the negative reviews lol. This one is well balanced with sweet, floral and woody notes. The dry down is absolutely addicting. This is sweet but mainly warm, crisp and feminine. I find it’s equal parts gentle and strong. I’m obsessed. Not particularly a fan of the bottle as I find it looks like nail polish and is too bold against the other bottles on my vanity that are typically gold/clear/pink etc. Bottles are a big deal for me and often a deal breaker but I liked the fragrance so much that I was willing to get past the bottle. I definitely recommend this :) but I also am happy that it’s not overly popular because I believe lots of people don’t know about the intense version and I like that, it leaves some originality owning this! I think the original passione was disliked by so many that people didn’t really give this one a chance perhaps.

I love this ! I am so impressed the way this blends with my body chemistry. It really sits close to my skin & radiates ever so slightly. I was very impressed with the lasting power of this baby. I personally found that with this fragrance it did not settle as most fragrances do throughout the day, at least from my own experience. It projected just the same as just applied, which is something I definitely appreciate. I think this makes a lovely winter/fall fragrance. The blackcurrant syrup & musk are intoxicating to my senses , I literally have no complaints about this fragrance. I am happy to have this beautiful red potion be apart of my perfume collection. I definitely recommend trying a sample of this before purchasing a full bottle, to see how this blends with your own body chemistry. I rate this one 5/5 ! The bottle is gorgeous too, has a very luxe appeal to it. ✰ ☆ ♡ ❥ ☾ ★ o ❣︎

This is sooo pretty, feminine, sexy, elegant. It's quite fruity in the opening and I can definitely see why people would say it's shampoo-ey. However, once it dries down its the most addicting creamy scent. It smells like an expensive face cream, plus a little something fruity and sexy. Perfect for a night out, but I really think it could be appropriate in most occasions and could be a signature. I've tried this and the original si passione in the store a few times. I could hardly smell the original and it faded right away, but this one lasts and is far superior. The openings are similar but the creamy dry down and much improved longevity on this one makes it sooo worth it. I can still smell it on the coat I was wearing when I tried it 2 weeks ago, no joke. Just ordered a bottle and can't wait to wear it with a little black dress!

It's a Love from me. 😍 I think this is the fragrance I've been looking for for a long time now. I love clean, crisp perfumes, and I adore how this one also has a beautiful, subtle fruitiness and sweetness to it, in addition to the shower and shampoo scent. It's blended really beautifully. I feel like I've been searching for this for about a year! Not really a fan of the original Si. Too cloying and sickly. This is so much nicer in my opinion, but I don't really feel like the bottle design, colour and name are super congruent with the fragrance. The aesthetic and name denote heavy, intense and sexy; something more wintry or suited to nighttime. But this scent feels more befitting of a wedding day to me. 💑💍 Absolutely love it. 🥰💞

Blind bought this after watching reviews and was convinced i needed this in my arsenal. On certain skin, it might have a tendency to dry down to a more grandma smelling scent but that is subjective. This perfume is a luxurious shampoo/conditioner smelling one. I don’t quite get the blackcurrant but i’m not complaining. Smells slightly heavy on the initial spray but dries down into a beautiful and comfortable fresh musk that will leave you feeling like you just showered - good for colder environments as that feeling plus the cold makes u feel soooo cozy and clean and luxurious. Silage isn’t that great but not complaining as it is slightly heavy , can defs be felt when others sit close by.

When I sprayed SPI for the first time, I was almost disappointed coz I thought it smells like a shampoo. But i sprayed again a couple of times so the notes really sink in and I like it much better. The blackcurrant note smells deeper indeed more intense. I'm still waiting for the jasmine to appear and will update my review. But so far I like it. I think that it's amazing for one note to be so well rounded and interesting. Oh now I can smell the musk. It's very simple yet elegant. It'll be perfect for evening gown occasion but of course I'll wear it anytime. It's quite linear, so don't expect much development. But like I said simple yet classy.

This is pretty basic fruity-floral but that's why I like it! Most of the scents I wear can be polarizing so it's nice to have something I can blind grab if I don't know the vibe or I'm in a professional setting. Compared to the original Sí Passione I get even more shampoo from the Intense, and the for some reason the sillage is beast mode on me, not the case for the original. Longevity is average. Smells like I just washed my hair! Love it!

The perfume opens with fruity accords of blackcurrant syrup, after a while woodsiness and fruitiness blend very well, and because of the balance, I wouldn't say it's syrupy. It's a clean perfume but it has a musky, dark side too... Not too mature, not teenage perfume, both suitable for day and night. And with the high silage and long-lastingness, I could say It's a potential signature perfume for me

Absolutely love. It’s more fruity than woody but the woodyness is absolutely there. I agree with a reviewer below that this ‘intense’ doesn’t quite mean stronger. In this fragrance they just played up and deepened some of the notes turning it more syrupy and woodys compared to the original si passione. I cannot wait to wear this to death in the fall...

As much as I love this scent, it just doesn’t project like I thought an intense might. I just hoped for more projection given that it’s also somewhat expensive. Not the best value for money in my opinion. I live in a very dry climate, and wonder if this might perform better as a summer night perfume instead of a fall/winter one.

I do really love this beautiful fragrance! This is similar than Si Passione without the odd metallic smell. Si Passione Intense is elegant, light, clean (not soapy imo) and musky. Cedar note is gentle. I can't notice any baby wipes or powder even though i am a mom.

Tried this today, ordered this today 😍 really beautiful on me and long lasting, I have all of the other Armani si perfumes and this one is as gorgeous as the others💕 would definitely recommend.

Too woody with a soapy scent on me. I don't get any of the fruitiness. Weird coz when I sampled it at the store it was so beautiful :( will use it for bedtime after a shower

Love it , the most wearable for day time for me . Clean and sweet and a little romantic to me. Great spring summer fragrance 🥰

This is a very beautiful and sophisticated grown up fruity fragrance. The cedar in the drydown is s heavenly.

Amazing fragrance! I got a teeny tiny sample of this and fell in love instantly <3

To me it smells just like si passione but last much longer

This one is SO delicious. Not masculine at all.

I love this one over all of Armani perfume💗

Tested on a Texas December night at 64*F ( inside/ no AC) Applied a single spray to my pulse points on my wrists before settling in for the night Longevity: 4 hours Sillage: This is a skin scent. It only Radiated within arms reach for the first 45 mins And totally turned into a skin scent. Impression: Super sweet and clean for the first hour. It instantly reminded me of been kissed on the shoulder and snuggling into a cozy embrace. This smells like fresh out the shower shampoo/ body wash on first instant impression. It doesn’t stay that way. Bottle design: 8.5 out of 10. I LOVE the red bottle. It does remind me of some luxury nail lacquer. On first spray it is the syrupy sweetest of berries that stirs you. This Smells clean I am very fresh out of the shower/shampoo types scent. This is “ clean woman that goes to bed happy” scent. After about 45 mins it morphs into some thing more sensual. This is “sexy woman that you want to wake up next to” scent. There is something super sensual about the notes that are coming through. It is a feminine sweetness which I think is the floral of the jasmine, thoroughly supported by sensual , comforting musk , and woodiness. A luxurious sexiness without feeling pretentious. I don’t feel that too many younger women would really appreciate this one. I can see it appealing to women over the age of 30. Overall, this clean safe scent matures into something sultry and alluring. A definite skin scent that morphs into something sexy for cool nights .

I am new to fragrance, and this perfume taught me that intense does not necessarily mean... stronger. (Which it really should mean that!) This is a beautiful, light, work appropriate fragrance. The projection is very soft. In fact, when I first sprayed it on a card, I only smelled alcohol followed by a light musk. I could hardly smell anything really. So at first I was super disappointed in this blind buy. However, once I sprayed it on my clothing, hair, and skin I could smell the sweet black currant syrup. Love. I would say this is a tiny bit sweeter than black currant, but not sugary sweet. After twenty or so minutes that sweetness faded to a more traditional sour black currant scent, and along with the vanilla and musk, it was just... beautiful. I got a hint of the original Si, but not much. This is much lighter, less sweet, with more musk. The longevity is not great on skin, maybe 3 hours before it's just a hint of musk, but it does last on clothing. I found myself topping up every two hours yesterday. Just to revisit that wonderful black currant syrupy scent. I really do love this fragrance, but wish I could get an intense version of this intense version. Ha. I will not re-purchase this fragrance once I use up the bottle.

In my opinion, this is way better than the original Si passione but I wouldn’t say it is necessarily “intense” . In fact, the original was a pepper bomb. This is way smoother and lighter in my opinion. I have a tester bottle and the notes are listed on the bottle. There is no cedar or musk listed on the bottle. Of course, they may be intentionally leaving some out, but my nose isn’t picking them up either. I’ll have to see if they come out further in the dry down. It is shampoo-y as others have stated, but I enjoy a soapy scent. It isn’t overly fruity or sweet to me. I can’t handle an overly sweet scent. I find that patchouli rounds out sweet scents very well! I like this fragrance, but it’s not a love. It’s pretty but honestly doesn’t have that special something for me.

edit: i feel that this is a toned down version from the original si edp ...it carries the si dna but with a musky base if you like si edp but find it sharp or overpowering this will give you the same smell but more toned towards musk... it's is better than the original si passione in lasting, more on the feminine side than fruity with musky and powdery base notes which make it more mature imo it's appropriate for 25+ age ...still yummy though and not in your face its more of a skin chic scent ..chic smell reminds me of a good 5 stars hotel room ...recommend it if you find the og weak go for the intense version longevity is not that good compared to the price and compared to the other si flankers as well.

This is a pleasant grown-up fruity scent. Elegant, expensive smelling, very nice. It has that Si dna,but this one is softer. There was a note in the original Si that i didn't really like, it is present here too, but just for a second, fortunately. I can't identify this note, it just smells a bit green and not very pleasant. Could be the patchouli. Anyways, i think this one is my favorite from this line. The vanilla here is great. I imagine a classy and mature woman wearing it. Final Note : 8/10 Overall, a luminous, slightly sweet, high quality fragrance. Great for work reunions if you work in a fancy branche.

Compared to Sì Passione éclat, this one goes straight to jasmine—connecting blackcurrant, vanilla, & musk with its innate fruitiness, sweetness, & indole—resulting in a fuzzy creamy powdery "ball" with patchouli creeping up to disturb the roundness. *These two fragrances have different structures and are sweet in different ways, but the difference in the flowers aren't actually that great. I think this one is marketed towards more mature women (than My Way Floral for example) since it's more understated.

(I have a sample). To me it’s a safe-sexy smell which I know a lot of people like and I can picture this smelling amazing on some. On me it’s just okay. It's just a little boring, but not necessarily bad or anything. Kinda screamy, I feel like it needs another note or two to make it more unique. The dry down is nice but nothing makes me want to run out and buy it

I like it! It reminds me slightly of Burberry Body, it has a very similar heart, plus a strong soapy vibe. My husband says it smells like straight up soap. Anyway, I don't mind this small sample that I have of it, but I wouldn't necessarily go out and buy a full bottle. Also, for an intense version this is too light and watered down.

Out of the entire Si line, Si Passione Intense is the only one that I really like. A sweet berry but sexy fragrance. It has the same type of sweet as Oriana from Parfums The Marly. They are very different in terms of notes, but I can put them in the same category. It pairs beautifully with Rouge Elixir from Victoria's Secret.

For me it's a "like" not "love". The longevity is only about 4 hours before it fades to a subtle skin scent on me. I agree with the comparisons with Burberry Body: sexy sweet soap. I have the intense version of BB and it has more longevity than this so I'll give this a pass. It's not bad though!

Intense version? I don't think so. It's a nice smell, remind me of a nice fruity shampoo but that's it. I would wear it in warmer weather when it would give off that nice fruity aroma and would be more intense? But in colder months I can't smell much.

I got full bottle of Si Fiore and mini of Sì Passione intense today! I tried Sì Passione but it was too light for me and didn’t liked it a lot! I like the intense more but not enough to buy full bottle!

I have a small tester of this and it instantly reminded me of when your walking past that fancy hairdressers and you can smell that amazing smell coming from the doors.. It's that smell, amazing!

Hmm. Very fem fatale to me. I'm going to let it sit awhile. It's a complex interesting scent. Will it be one of my very favorites? Not sure yet. It's no wallflower..that's for sure.

I Would really like to get this as love the original and Fiori versions but can’t find this one to test. Looking for a detailed review before I buy! Can anyone help me out?

The woodsy components really balance out the blackcurrant syrup notes. Works really well with my body chemistry.

Its more rounded and grown up than the Si Passion, but has a weaker performance. It’s almost a skin scent.

I didn't know about this new release and only discovered it because I mistook the intense for Passione but luckily noticed the more red bottle. This is something you have watch out for as the bottles are very similar and a mistake waiting to happen. In the top notes for Passione I get the pear, blackcurrant but also a tarter note which I read somewhere was pineapple even though it is not listed. With Intense, the top is not as sweet which could be because the pear is missing. In the middle, the rose is more evident in Passione whereas in the Intense,jasmine dominates. The dry down however, is where the Intense fares slightly better than the original with the muskiness toning down and mixing seamlessly with the jasmine which somehow prolongs it's intensity on my skin. The Passione smells woodier with just slightest waft of Jasmine and the fruitiness that makes it feel lighter than the Intense. Both performed well lasting 8+ hours on my skin but I could detect the Intense more easily. I personally prefer the Passione because of the fruitiness and rose which I like better than the jasmine and musk in the Intense although the two combine so beautifully in the end that I prefer the dry down of Intense to Passione! The Intense is the less fruitier and woodier but muskier sister to Passione which in my opinion was an unnecessary addition to the Si line however it does make me wish the Passione came with dry down of this latest version. Take care when picking up your bottle!

I'm usually a sucker for all of these ingredients but something about this perfume smelled like a generic shampoo / hair colour / cleaning spray mixed with old lady and I don't know why. I was definitely disappointed especially after hearing so much good about it. I did three sprays on my right wrist and let it dry before I sniffed it real good and my immediate thought was just.. Nope. I let it sit on my wrist hoping it would develop over time but the only change I noticed was that it was getting fainter for every minute, which was kind of a relief for me. Now two hours later it's barely even a skin scent so for you who've heard that this is a projecting scent with long sillage, I'm sorry but it just doesn't deliver this way. There are definitely better shampoo scents out there. I will say though that even if this wasn't my type of scent, I don't think it necessarily smells bad, but it doesn't really smell like a perfume to me either, more like you've been cleaning all day, washing clothes with detergent, taken a shower and washed your hair and now you smell like a mix of all those chemicals that doesn't really go together but you don't smell bad, just clean.

I had this for a week and returned it. I was wearing vanilla 28 to Sephora one night and tried this on with it. It’s an outrageous combo! it was amazing. I remember hearing a YT reviewer mention it as well. however I couldn’t wear this alone it was just weird on my skin. I got the syrupy touch but then the classic clean Si passione. Not a fan. Anyway GA site was having 40% off so I wasn’t gonna justify keeping and paying full price. I can do without this one since I wouldn’t wear it alone only mixed with Vanilla 28 (which makes every fragrance better). Also it’s worth mentioning that I’ve gone through 2 bottles of Si passione since it’s released, but I think I’m just over the scent profile period. It is more long lasting though which it needed and this one is a touch heavier with some of the citrus notes taken out. Could work for all seasons.

Another one bites the dust due to that weird pear note? I am not sure what is going gross playdough with this one but I suspect it is that damn pear that seems to be in everything. I appreciate creamy sweetness and it makes this smell lovely on paper, but on my skin it is just yuck city. There are ample options for my blackcurrant obsession, but since I really expected to like this one I am pretty bummed.

Not sure what is oriental here? The currant? o.O Just vanilla? Yes, we have currant, vanilla here + some jasmine and a lot of low quality musks. So useless. Why does it even exist? Si Passione Intense? LOL Passion as someone who never have felt it can imagine it. As sugary nonsense. Why waste a beautiful red bottle, perfect name and Si fame for something so forgettable and ridiculous?

I don't find it intense. It's opaque in a way, dense, but soft, drying down it turns soapy, shampoo-ish. Pretty nice perfume, but not a statement as that bold, rich red bottle and title "intense" suggests. -

It smells like exspensive shampoo, when you first spray it- im not a fan. But when it dries down i smell the black currant and jasmine. Personally i would not buy it again, and IT IS NOT A GOOD BLIND BUY

Sprayed this on my hand, although it is shampooy, it is not lux. Smells like cheap musk to be honest and is headache inducing. I like the OG passion with the fruity notes.

Very syrupy and fruity, but still not as sweet as some other perfumes I've smelled. It's a nice smell -- not amazing, but nice.

Surprisingly weak projection and gentle profile for an intense EDP. However - probably because of exactly that - I like this better than the OG. There was something sharp and nauseating for me in the OG, but I don't remember what it was anymore. There is something plasticky or mildly medicinal happening on the background in the beginning of it. After a while, thankfully, the musk starts to tone it down and it becomes softer, more enjoyable. There is still a jammy sweet and fruity note playing solo in the front - cannot identify what it is, but I don't like it. Makes me think of a red juice concentrate they sell in Asia, that has an overly artificial and syrupy taste. I think that note is my main problem what it comes to this perfume. I recall it was probably something like that, that made me dislike the OG as well. I have been avoiding the entire product line. Eventually the scent softens more and more towards soap-shampoo-body lotion direction, but not too much. Would not count this into the soapy/clean category. At this point the scent is quite agreeable and generally alright. The fruity, syrupy note remains as the defining factor of this perfume, but now that it has been tuned down by ~90% and blended into the creamy musk, it feels no longer invasive or disturbing. It's... Alright. Even if it was like that all the way from the beginning, I would still find it not attractive enough for getting a bottle or decant - or even a free sample.

Not a favourite! That berry base is not something I would choose. I kind of perceive it as rosy, as in rose jam although I know it's the blackcurrants and vanilla that add to that false impression. You can absolutely smell Si in this flanker, but more elegant, sadly old-ladyish sweet. It lacks something and I cannot put my finger on it. A bit expensive for the composition... Good longevity though...

Bought the sample by mistake thinking it was the regular si passione. Not sure if it’s just my skin but i hate it. I mostly only smell floral and I just don’t like the jasmine combined with the musk and blackcurrant. Personally smells more mature to me. Thought the original si passione smelled better in store but probably won’t be buying the sample if it smells similar to this.
