Si, Más!
Designed by perfumer Miguel Matos, Si, Mas! offers a bold take on unisex florals. It avoids the clean, soapy traps of modern designer scents, opting instead for a raw, botanical experience. The scent opens with a sharp burst of neroli and orange blossom, which quickly gives way to a lush, waxy middle of ylang-ylang and jasmine. The base is where the magic happens, as iris and musk mix with costus to create an earthy, skin-like finish. It is an excellent match for fragrance enthusiasts who prefer their florals with a bit of green, dirty complexity. Wear it during spring mornings or warm autumn afternoons when you want a signature scent that stands out.

Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“Si, Mas! Review: An Unconventional, Earthy Floral Scent”
Si, Mas! opens with a bright, almost sharp greenness that immediately commands attention. The initial spray delivers a rush of neroli and orange blossom, mixed with a bitter lemon blossom note that keeps the opening from feeling sweet or syrupy. It feels like stepping into a greenhouse filled with citrus trees in early spring. The air is cool, the leaves are crushed, and the blossoms are just beginning to open.
As the initial citrus fizz quietens down, the fragrance transitions into its floral heart. The transition is smooth but dramatic. The delicate green opening gives way to a dense, waxy combination of ylang-ylang and jasmine. A touch of lily-of-the-valley adds a wet, dew-like freshness, while narcissus introduces a slightly hay-like, honeyed texture. This is not a polite, clean-cut bouquet. It is thick, indolic, and highly sensory, capturing the raw smell of flowers under the hot sun.
After about three hours, the fragrance settles into its final phase. The base notes of iris and musk create a soft, powdery background, but it is the costus that defines the dry-down. Costus root is known for its distinct hair-like, animalic profile. On the skin, it creates a warm, slightly dirty warmth that mimics the natural scent of clean skin after a long walk in the sun. This element keeps the floral notes grounded and prevents the perfume from smelling synthetic.
In terms of performance, the fragrance delivers a solid seven hours of wear on warm skin. Sillage is moderate, projecting about arm's length during the first two hours before drawing closer. It performs beautifully in moderate spring temperatures and light rain, which helps the green facets of the lily-of-the-valley pop. However, it can become slightly heavy in intense midsummer heat due to the density of the ylang-ylang.
This is a unisex fragrance that will appeal to people who find standard designer florals boring. It has a rough, botanical quality that feels very artistic. It works best with casual, natural-fiber clothing like linen shirts or light knitwear, fitting a relaxed, creative style. It is certainly not a crowd-pleasing office scent, but it makes a wonderful signature for someone who wants to stand out quietly.
Si, Mas! is a successful experiment in earthy floral design. By balancing bright citrus blossoms with a dirty costus base, Miguel Matos has created a scent that feels alive and changing. If you are looking for a clean, soapy orange blossom, you should look elsewhere. But if you want a floral fragrance with real depth and a touch of wildness, this is well worth your time.
FAQs
What does Si, Mas! smell like?+
This fragrance smells like a sun-drenched orange grove that has gone slightly wild. It opens with sharp neroli and bitter lemon blossom. It then settles into a dense, waxy heart of ylang-ylang and jasmine, before drying down to a warm, musky base of earthy costus and powdery iris.
How does the opening compare to the dry-down?+
The opening is bright, green, and fizzy with orange blossom and neroli. In contrast, the dry-down is much darker and warmer. The citrus notes fade within an hour, leaving a powdery iris and a slightly animalic costus musk that hugs the skin closely.
How long does Si, Mas! last on skin?+
You can expect about six to eight hours of wear from this fragrance. The bright top notes of lemon blossom disappear quickly, but the heavy ylang-ylang heart and the musk base persist well into the evening, especially on clothing.
How far does the fragrance project?+
It projects about arm's length for the first two hours of wear. The white floral notes of jasmine and orange blossom create a noticeable scent trail in enclosed spaces, but it eventually settles down into a more intimate, musky skin scent.
What is the best season to wear this scent?+
Spring is the ideal season for this fragrance. The green lily-of-the-valley and bright neroli bloom beautifully in cool, damp air. However, the heavy ylang-ylang and costus base also perform surprisingly well in summer humidity.
For what occasions should I wear Si, Mas!?+
This is a great choice for casual daytime wear, outdoor brunches, or weekend gallery visits. The sharp citrus blossom opening keeps it fresh for the afternoon, while the earthy costus base adds enough interest for a casual dinner date.
Does this scent lean masculine or feminine?+
While it features traditional floral notes like lily-of-the-valley and jasmine, the earthy, slightly dirty costus note in the base gives it a rugged, unisex appeal. It wears equally well on anyone who appreciates raw, natural-smelling florals.
Who is the ideal audience for this perfume?+
This fragrance is built for floral enthusiasts who are tired of clean, soapy perfumes. If you enjoy the botanical realism of orange blossom but want a base with more animalic character, this will appeal to your nose.
Can I layer this fragrance with other scents?+
Yes, it layers beautifully. You can spray a clean cedar or vetiver fragrance underneath to anchor the bright neroli and ylang-ylang. This highlights the earthy green qualities of the scent while toning down the sweet floral elements.
Are there any good dupes for Si, Mas!?+
It is difficult to find a direct dupe due to the unique costus base. However, fans of lush, green, indolic florals like Lush Lust or L'Artisan Parfumeur La Chasse aux Papillons will find a similar wild, untamed floral vibe here.
