Start with the warm aromatic part

Retailers compare Proud of You Intense with Stronger With You Intensely Eau de Parfum. The connection is easiest to see around cinnamon, lavender and sage. The fragrances also share a sweet amber and vanilla direction in their listed bases. That makes the middle and drydown good places to compare them if you like the warm spice of Intensely. We’d pay attention to how much of the lavender stays noticeable as the vanilla becomes easier to find.

The opening has its own balance

Proud of You Intense lists bergamot, pepper, cardamom and grass at the top. Armani highlights pink pepper and a chestnut accord, with amber wood and vanilla in the finish. The Intensely catalog profile also lists a toffee note. If what you like is that toasted, sweet character, focus on how it comes through next to the greener opening in Proud of You Intense. Proud of You Intense also lists musk and tonka in the base, giving you another part of the drydown to compare with the Armani.

Compare against the bottle you actually wear

We’re using the Intensely Eau de Parfum as the reference. If you own a bottle already, use it for the side-by-side so you’re comparing against the formulation you know. The full name also matters on the Fragrance World side. Proud of You Intense and Proud of You Absolute have their own comparisons. We’d try Intense if you want a sweet, spiced amber with a more aromatic opening in the note list. Check the drydown on both wrists before choosing which bottle you want to buy.
