Si Rose Signature II Eau de Parfum

I’m glad I found this fragrance. Scooped up a bottle on Mercari. I really enjoy wearing the original Si EDP, loved the opening which is super fruity-floral and sweet. But it quickly morphs into the blonde woods after only 15-20 minutes. The dry down is okay but I really wish the opening would last longer. So when I found Si Rose Signature and this one (signature number 2) I realized it smells very similar to the opening notes of the original with more rose. I am in love! It’s such a romantic youthful rose, or a wedding day scent. Like a real authentic juicy wet rose, Dipped in honey or black currant jam. I don’t smell any vanilla. The patchouli is more toned down. I love this more than Florabotanica which was my first rose fragrance. Update 10/02/2019: No! Why did they discontinue this?! This is my new favorite scent! To me this is rose petals and blackcurrant jam with this makeup/lipstick scent in the background probably from the iris and ambrette. I don’t get any vanilla. It’s fresh, clean (not soapy), floral, fruity, classy, womanly, youthful, great everyday or special occasion perfume. This is a hidden gem IMO. Currently searching the internet for backup bottles.

It’s ok. Can’t say it’s one of my favourites from the Si line but much better than the first🌹signature brought out. The powdery rose has more pronunciation here. I think that’s because Armani sensibly put the rose in the mid notes this time round, rather than solely in the top ones. I still have a 50ml bottle of this but honestly don’t reach for it as much as I do for the bottles of Intense 2021, Passione Red Maestro or Fiori. Edit: *I have grown to love this scent more over time. Perhaps it needed to macerate to reach its full potential. This is now a stunning rose fragrance that marries very well with the blackcurrant. It has impressive longevity now but still maintains a light, airier density in comparison to SI. This also layers nicely with Coco M and other less dense fragrances. It has incredible versatility for many occasions, purposes & seasons. Has gone from a like to a ❤️ after several months of sitting. Shame its been discontinued. I wish I bought a back up bottle in hindsight

Lovely dessert wine-style rose. More than just a jammy rose; the blackcurrant seems to give it a kind of liqueur-like quality. The overall impression is of a rosy crimson syrup with glints of light and depth. It feels familiar in the sense that the rose-blackcurrant-vanilla blend seems to have been everywhere in recent years, but this is a more mature, more well-rounded iteration of the accord. Longevity is average on me; sillage poor. :( Thank heavens I got a 100ml bottle!

I smelled it today. Being a rose addict, I have to admit that if I had the $152 plus tax I would have blown the money on the spot ! It's roses roses and more roses , with little , if any , or the original Si left. The lasting power is really good as I have been home for a few hours and I am still sniffing and wishing I could make it mine. The roses here are quite mature, not fruity or candied at all . It's elegant and classy, and definitely on my wish list .

This is indeed different than the previous version. It has MORE rose, and most importantly, the notes are blended together better. They aren't clashing against each other like the last one. The rose is lightly flavored with the cassis, and the patchouli and vanilla are quietly laying in the background. Very sophisticated and elegant, but not overly formal.
