Romantic Blossom

I just purchased this as an alternative to Si Fiori and then bought Si Fiori anyway, so I have both. Yes, they are very similar, but to my nose Si Fiori is a lot more complex and has an underlying milkiness and spicy note that this perfume lacks. I assume it's the notes in both of these fragrances but neither lasts more than 30 mins on my skin. This one definitely performs worse, and I cannot smell it after 5 mins or so, which is such a shame. It does layer nicely with Narciso Poudree, and for the price at least I'm happy to carry this one in my handbag and reapply throughout the day. It's nice to have and very cheap, so I would still recommend it, although you might be better buying one of the Juicy Couture perfumes instead as they last a bit longer and are quite reminiscent (Viva La Juicy I also own and they smell similar to me). If you want Si Fiori, I'd probably still recommend you save up, as they're not identical and there is something special in that scent that this is lacking.

At first sniff it immediately reminded me of L'Occitane Néroli & Orchidée, which I own and love! Never smelt Sì Fiori by Armani, as I cannot find any tester around, being it discontinued. It has nothing to do with the original Sì perfume, so to me it's perfect! Cannot express an opinion on lasting power yet, since I've just sprayed it on my wrist. But I'm in love! Great, safe blind buy!

It starts spicy floral but the dry down is infused with warm woody earthy spices keeping syrupy fragrance at bay. It changes from chypre to sweet to oriental yet something keeps it from being too sultry or cosy. Happy cheeky oriental. The longevity is quite good.

This is beautiful. Happy, bright, like a blooming garden in May, with roses and white flowers. It has a powdery sexyness to it too, but in a soft and subtle way. Can't get enough of it

Very nice smells just like Si fiori i love it . It’s also quite long lasting Smells expensive

I got a free sample of Si Fiori - it's normally not the kind of perfume I like, but I found it comforting now in the grey, rainy winter of Brittany. But I didn't like it enough to invest in a bottle. Then I found out about Romantic Blossom and wanted to try and compare. 8 eur for 100ml was worth the experiment. I sprayed them both on skin and paper. At first, Si Fiori is heavier on the vanilla and more creamy, while Romantic Blossom is more fruity and lighter (the vanilla and creaminess is present, but not as much as in SF). Personally, the opening of RB reminds me more of peach tea than a bergamot - black currant combo. Both have a soft spiciness, but the two go down a different route. About 10 minutes later, they end up quite similar. RB will never get as creamy, Si Fiori is rounder, a lot more nuanced and elegant. So if that's what you love in SF, you'll probably be disappointed in Romantic Blossom. But, if you don't mind a bit less of those, RB is not a bad dupe at all. It's neither screechy nor weightless, it does smell thinner but not cheap, and longevity and sillage is decent.

Classy affordable scent with beautifully blended florals. Quite powdery and vanillary. It has a slight darker fruit vibe comparing to JPG Classique. Can be worn all year round and the lasting power is great.

Just got this perfume omg this smells beautiful and very feminine. I haven’t smelled si fiori yet so I don’t know if it’s a dupe or not, regardless this perfume is gorgeous and it’s very crowd pleasing. I would say it’s very appropriate for work, lunch dates or running errands. You could wear it for any occasions. I would definitely recommend picking it up for £5.79 on notino. Update This performance on this beauty is 10/10 Longevity 8/10 Sillage 7/10 Smell 10/10 I wore this to work and it was projecting like crazy. For the price this is just amazing

Does anyone have recommendations on where to buy this in the US? Most of my normal sites don't seem to carry this brand.

fragrantica please add the -pure romantic- flanker
