Frosted Cream

Scent Breakdown

Zara's Frosted Cream is aiming for the chic, confident air of Armani's Sì, and it gets surprisingly close. That opening burst of cassis is definitely there, though a touch sharper, more synthetic than the original's juicy depth. The heart unfolds with a similar rose and freesia accord, but lacks Sì's nuanced floral sophistication; it's simpler, cleaner. The drydown is where Frosted Cream shines. Vanilla and patchouli create a warm, comforting base, with those woody notes adding a grounding touch. It hits about 87% of the Si vibe, focusing on the sweet, approachable facets, just without the same level of finesse.

Projection Power

This isn't a powerhouse. Expect around 4-5 hours of moderate wear. Projection is soft; it creates a personal bubble of scent rather than announcing your arrival. It's office-friendly and non-offensive, if not particularly memorable. If you crave the sophisticated complexity and luxurious depth of Sì, stick with the original. However, if you are seeking an everyday, easy-to-wear fragrance with a similar vibe, and you don't mind a few synthetic edges, Frosted Cream is a worthwhile option. The original is arguably worth the splurge for its superior quality and longevity, but this clone holds its own for casual wear. A good grab if you love the DNA!
