What Is Parfums Vintage Pineapple Vintage King Intense a Dupe Of?

Parfums Vintage Pineapple Vintage King Intense is a clone of Creed Aventus. The maker positions King Intense as a woodier take than Pineapple Vintage Intense. We'd put that distinction ahead of the shared pineapple name when deciding which version belongs on a sample shortlist.

The note connection

Its catalog profile lists pineapple, apple and juniper berries in the opening, followed by bergamot, black currant, rose and jasmine. Birch, musk, patchouli, ambergris and vanilla sit in the base. The maker's description also highlights cedar within the woodier direction.

Pineapple Vintage Intense is the useful nearby comparison because both are working with fruit over an Aventus-style base. King Intense's intended balance gives the woods more of the conversation. That isn't a claim that the fruit disappears, or that a woody version will be the closest match to every Aventus bottle.

How we'd choose

We'd sample King Intense if you like pineapple but don't want the fragrance decision to begin and end with it. Pay attention to the wood-and-patchouli side after the opening. That part may tell you more about whether it suits your everyday use than the familiar fruit in the first spray.

If you're torn between King Intense and regular Pineapple Vintage Intense, try them separately as well as side by side. Sometimes a quick comparison makes the differences seem more important than they feel during a normal wear. We'd buy the one whose balance we keep enjoying without having to think about the other bottle.
