Sì

“Confident, polished, and completely unbothered — a wardrobe staple in EDP form.”

Centered on cassis and May rose with a patchouli-ambroxan drydown — Christine Nagel's 2013 launch for Armani, one of the brand's best-selling feminine releases. Works best in fall and winter, versatile day-to-night. Nagel later moved to Hermès as head perfumer.
