As someone who quite enjoyed the 2025 Si Parfum, Si Passione Red Bloom doesn’t hit the spot. Not bad, but generic and a tad cloying.

This opens very sweet, candied. After the opening it starts to become more milky. It feels like a constant battle between being a more cozy, creamy vanilla gourmand and a more juvenile, sugary candy gourmand.

I prefer the milky side, but that too is overly common; leaning towards those nutty sun tan lotion scents that come a dime a dozen.

In the drydown the milkiness runs out and it becomes powdery again. A closer to the skin scent, which is probably for the better, because I do find the sweetness to be cloying too much for me to fully enjoy it.
