Shi

Smells like a high end lotion.

I immediately liked this one at the first spray. It's floral and aquatic right off the bat. It's noticeable, but not overpowering. It's very fresh and clean feeling, like I just got out of the shower. I think The water lily and frangipani do the heavy lifting in this, but the citrus and musk are definitely supporting the fragrance. I blind bought this and am very happy I did. It will definitely be a part of my regular fragrance rotation. It's also very reasonably priced.

Best blind buy, went to a perfume store to smell it before it arrived and the sales associate was was surprised how good it smelled because no one ever asked her for a sample. I kinda wanna gatekeep this lolll. My friend and my mom loves it too.

I took a chance on this and maaaaan am i glad. It reminds me of my grandma. She liked cool waters. clean fresh easy. This reminds me of those early 2000's floral perfumes. I am from LBC so this brings back nostalgia and memories of people who are gone. at time when life was easier and less expensive. This will be my signature. effortless not overpowering and light

Not for me. Soap and grass is all I can think of with this fragrance.

I lost my bottle somewhere lol, but what I remember is this is a unique calm scent but it was on the sharp side.

First Impression: (small bottle) Ehhh first I liked it but it’s a no because it started to smell like a dry baby wipe.

I was craving for Shi, a beautiful drop of water. I wanted a rice and lily with birch wood crisp, fresh scent. I was a little dissapointed when I finally got it, cause its not so fresh but quite warm to me. Not crisp at all but cream dove or fenjal like fredh. Propably I smell a lot of frangipani that makes it warmer than I wanted. Its clear, nice, comforting scent but not fresh, not water, lotus. I would it better if it was dry musky laundry fresh but its not. Ah, but the bottle is so beautiful...Not so good blindbuy. Maybe other smell this crisp fresh but not me🥲

I feel like I am out of a shower clean every time I put on this scent.

My search for a Dove soap scent continues. Shi is not it for me. To my nose it just smells like a men's body wash or deoderant, one of the lighter, more fruity and aquatic scents. But there's still something in this that reminds me of when a guy slathers on deoderant without even washing himself first. The musk or something in this has that peppery b.o vibe which I definitely wasn't hoping for in a scent that was described as "clean." But hey, scent is subjective so I can't fault anyone for that. My nose is just picking that up, unfortunately for me. It started off promising, a bit of a fruity soapy vibe. If it had dried down creamy and sweet, it would've been the perfect Dove soap scent. Sadly it dries down musky and slightly spicy for me, giving it the men's deoderant vibe. There's also this slight bitterness to it that gives the vibe of getting soap in your mouth, the scent hits the nose and back of the throat in a similar fashion. The sillage and longevity are pretty good on clothes, but I did have to spray it about six times. I wouldn't repurchase this.

This was a blind buy and love it. It's very clean and after shower like. Almost like a beautiful lotion on the skin. Very spa like which can be work anywhere. It will be my everyday fragrance. I would call it a skin fragrance without the cloying scent that is used now as a skin scent (eg. Missing person...etc)

Managed to get the last bottle on notino Romania on discount. The bottle has a plastic cap, quite sturdy to hold but less elegant comparing to Dior J'adore due to the less-elongated of recreating the shape of water drop. On the top there is a kanji/hanzi character 水 , which means "water". First sniff impression on paper towel: it's a kind of substance that neutralize the odour of people who has oily skin, a fresh laundry vibe with this bitterness from lemon peel marinated in potassium alum (kali alum). If you are living in a humid salty tropical climate, this perfume would surely be on your first list beside the trio cheapy fresh Chloe-DG-Versace and all from Salvatore Ferragamo. Nevertheless, the bitterness would then faded away after an hour or so, left behind this tender lightly sweet from the flowers. I could not detect frangipani at all, but I'd prefer it without, cuz all the new perfumes these days, except the niche, are sticky sugar water to me. Don't expect a splash of artificial alcohol just because it's cheap, no it's not, it smells ordinarily expensive, the "Yes I know Laura, she's the one with fresh flowers on her desk always". Nothing ground breaking, but stays true to itself in every moment you pass by.

like putting on a fresh clean white shirt. a great way to start the day. fresh and uplifting. an everyday anytime scent

This was a blindbuy, but I just knew I was gonna like it, and it was love at first spritz. This is very fresh, crisp and a little soapy and I don’t know why I smell pear? Out of the perfumes I own currently, this is the one I use the most. Anything reminiscent of rain has my heart though <3

I remember loving this when I was younger but smelling it now, it's very soapy to me going to let it sit for awhile and revisit.

Freshie, clean, floral, aquatic. I wish I knew about this before now. Amazing price point.

This is so underrated. It’s insanely inexpensive. It’s fresh, it lasts, the only thing I don’t like is the cap which is hard for me to grip but it’s fine I can just toss the cap. Other than that…A+ for this aquatic musky freshie

An easy reach. Smooth, beautiful and clean. Gentle in composition, but lasts all day. Has a nice rice water quality to it. The floral notes are blended in a way you can pick them out, but they sit together neatly. Nothing is overwhelming, including the musk and birch. It's a still aquatic with a tangy aromatic facet but all very smooth. I have a newer formulation with the (ugly) plastic cap. I use this whenever I want the freshly showered feeling throughout my day. Serene.

The first time I smelled this perfume was in a perfume store. From the moment I smelled it, a wave of nostalgia hit me. As a kid, my siblings and I used to eat honeysuckle that would grow in our front yard and crush the petals between our fingers. This perfume smells to me very similar to honeysuckle. It also smells like a flower garden after a rain. The perfume is strong, I sprayed it on my boyfriend's blanket, and he complained it stayed on the blanket for days. However the perfume doesn't last that long on the skin 4-5 hrs max.

I don’t know what others are talking about, but to me, this perfume is pure water lily. An aquatic floral in its truest form soft, serene, and luminous. It doesn’t last more than 5 hours on clothes, and its projection stays close to the skin, like a whispered breeze. Clean and effortlessly fresh, it’s perfect for those scorching summer days when all you crave is something light, cooling, and quietly elegant.

I bought this when it first came out in the early 2000’s I was in middle school and it was a splurge at the time but I loveddddd it!! Years later I found a bottle for 20$ at shoppers drug mart and it sooo brings me back. I wore it today as the weather was hot and humid and it served perfectly. I smelled clean and fresh all day even got a compliment from the store clerk while doing my groceries.

This is very clean, aromatic and aquatic, however i find it unwearable. The rice note is very forward and overwhelming that it makes my stomach churn. It's floral, fresh spicy and a lil bit fruity, but it doesnt read to me as a perfume. Its very outdated and nauseating on skin and clothes. It currently serves as a bathroom freshener for me.

a very clean fragrance reminiscent of a fragrance I used to own called CK2; however, not as sharp and more floral. Nothing spectacular, yet not bad

Admirable. I truly feel, at least at this very moment, that I will always have this in my collection. As a lover of the releases from the 1900s and early 2000s, this one is still noteworthy even in 2025. There aren’t many that are being released now that can hold a candle to it. Clean and serene….simply delightful. It lasts all day long and always receives compliments.

This leans too masculine for me. A search came up with only 4 female birch leaf fragrances. I've tried layering it with other fragrances and it always dominates.

I bought this blindly, after looking at the notes and reviews. I find it to be nice and safe. The dry down really reminds me of CK1. I was hoping for more of a distinctly bright and feminine scent, but this is nice enough and I can wear it to work. It does not last long on my skin and is inoffensive.

I liked it for a bit and it was nice sprayed on the box. On my skin though it quickly became a bit nauseating, something about it is screaming the 90's to me. It's a "clean" soapy (like laundry detergent) floral, pleasant enough on the right person for summer I'm sure but I personally find it to be very strong and unpleasant. I'd be afraid to wear this on a warmer day, I think it would make me feel very sick in the heat. I had a very hard time washing it off, it was still strong after washing with soap and water so I let some oil sit on my hand for 15 minutes and washed that off and could still smell it. Finally I washed the dishes and I still smell it although it's not as strong now thankfully so I guess that says something about longevity.

Fresh, clean, inoffensive...pretty. Nothing special. But, would still be nice for summer. Great price.

Reminds me of the opening chords in the Rain Song, by Led Zeppelin. Relaxing, pretty, unique. Feels and smells like good quality. I get the rice leaf note pretty big. Just a great one.

Shi by Alfred Sung is a very beautiful and zen fragrance. It gives me a soft, clean, and meditative vibe. However, there's something in this perfume that I just can't get over. Something too sickly or mildewy smelling. I'm trying to put a finger on it.
