A very loud vanilla with nothing interesting to say
Very aggressive sweet vanilla. Jasmine – flat and monotone. A bit of pear, a lot of currant. No bergamot. The composition is theoretically pleasant, but it's loud. A moderate amount of sillage, but once you're in the cloud, it puts you in a chokehold and doesn't let go. It's like a beautiful woman I've just met, and I'm impressed at first; but then for the whole date night she keeps shouting at me, and so I find her less and less attractive with every passing moment. I'm sensitive, lady, could you please stop?

It takes about ~1,5 hours to calm down and settle on my skin. The top notes are now gone. Vanilla, jasmine – unchanging. I'm also starting to feel some sandalwood below. It smells boring and flat, but not bad. It's okay. But I already feel done with it.

In another hour jasmine fades too. Leaves just sandalwood and vanilla. They stick to my skin through the night – deathly boring. Sweet. Potent. As if I've misjudged the amount of hand cream I need and now my skin is covered in its slick sticky residue.

Thank you for your time, Sì Passione, but I don't think we're a right match for each other. And I left the stove on at home. Or a dog. Or something. So I really should go.

Pleasant, sweet scent
A pleasant and sweet fragrance that clearly carries the recognizable DNA of the original Si, maintaining its characteristic elegance while introducing a softer interpretation. It offers a moderate level of projection, ensuring it remains noticeable without being overwhelming. Designed as a mainstream flanker, it is easy to appreciate and wear, appealing to those who enjoy accessible yet refined scents that stay true to the essence of the original composition.

Sensual, warm, elegant
The blackcurrant provides a zesty, fruity start, followed by a floral heart of rose and jasmine. Vanilla in the base makes the scent sensual and soft.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, about 6-7 hours.

For me, the fragrance is versatile - fresh and cheerful during the day, warm and seductive in the evening.
A scent full of energy and optimism!!

A Berry-Vanilla Contrast Between Mature and Youthful
Sì Passione Parfum Intense by Giorgio Armani is a fragrance that immediately stands out and pulls no punches. Sweet, sensual, and with an almost youthful radiance - yet possessing a maturity that reflects experience and self-confidence.

The sweetness is intense, almost creamy, and at the same time radiant, without slipping into playfulness. It is a perfume that one imagines on a woman who values her appearance: perfectly styled, groomed down to the last detail, with a presence that attracts both respect and admiring glances. It has that certain Cougar aura - mature, elegant, but with a hint of flirtatious spark that surprises.

Right from the start, a rich, fruity sweetness hits you. The blackcurrant is juicy, ripe, and slightly syrupy - less fizzy than in other fragrances, but rather like a ripe, dark cocktail. It creates the aura described above: confident, lush, yet fresh enough to feel alive.

In the heart, a creamy white jasmine unfolds, giving the fragrance its sensual, almost luxurious warmth. The jasmine does not come across as too green or natural, but rather seductive and velvety-warm, almost skin-close. Here, the elegant maturity mentioned at the beginning reveals itself.

The long-lasting vanilla wraps itself like a soft blanket over everything - sweet, warm, and alluring. It enhances the feminine side and ensures that the fragrance remains a "compliment magnet." A subtle woody note blends in, adding depth and seriousness to prevent it from feeling too playful. This very contrast makes Sì Passione Parfum Intense mature: sweet, but not childish - sexy, but not intrusive.

Important: The dosage. A few spritzes are enough to create a distinctive scent cloud. In larger amounts, it can become overwhelming and headache-inducing. Yet, it is precisely in this strength that its charm lies: Sì Passione Parfum Intense is not a quiet fragrance, but a statement - a compliment magnet that demands attention and gets it.

One could say: It tells the story of a woman who at 60 looks like she’s 40 - vital, glamorous, full of energy, and never ready to fade into the background. By the way, this does not mean that the fragrance is only recommended for those over 50 - on the contrary, it also makes young wearers appear soft, warm, well-groomed, and somehow "well put together." A fragrance for appearances, for evenings full of glances and unspoken compliments.

Conclusion:
A very sweet, intense, and luxurious fragrance that combines feminine maturity with youthful radiance. Perfect for anyone who loves presence - and is not afraid to be in the spotlight.

Fruity and Sensual
The fragrance starts with a fruity-berry appearance, lively and sparkling. This first phase feels modern and feminine. Shortly thereafter, a warm, soft vanilla note unfolds, giving the fragrance depth and sensuality without feeling too heavy. And through jasmine, the composition gains a fine, elegant floral quality that harmoniously rounds everything off. The fragrance remains beautifully balanced - not too sweet, not too spicy, ripe but not old-fashioned, feminine but not overloaded. The sillage and longevity are good, present but not overwhelming. A lovely, modern companion that suits many occasions. I enjoy smelling it, but I probably wouldn't buy a whole bottle as it doesn't quite match my taste. Nevertheless, the composition is successful, and this fragrance can stylishly accompany its wearer.

Toned down blackcurrant spice, some additional creamy white florals in the middle and... saffron? Why is Armani baccarating this DNA?!

Can be something sweeter than this??? Pear is drowning in a sugary syrup in synthetic vanilla cloud. Too much.

Pleasant, sweet scent with a noticeable DNA of the original Si. Moderate projection. Mainstream flanker, easy to appreciate.

From the ten-and-twelfth infusion of overly sweet flowers with lab-made general fruit, it quickly turns into a dull Eau de Fizzle.

The moment of passionate floral-fruity boredom for me. Fruity stuff, fabric softener jasmine on vanilla stuff.

A passion for Baccarat Rouge is expected here. Loud, clumsy, with extreme nerve potential. For me, it's a washout.

I like it better than the other flanker

Intensely sweet pear at first. Quickly settles into a floral-vanilla scent on a woody base. You know something like this, but...

Juicy, sweet pear with blackcurrant. In the background, BR vibes. Everything is very creamy, warm, and fruity...delicious :) for me, the best flanker.

Passione has a light cotton candy vibe. The pear really comes through in the drydown. The scent has something special.
