About this deal

I should gather my female friends and ask them if it has as strong an effect on them, or if I'm just particularly sensitive to it. To me it smells like eroticism in a bottle. My boyfriend likes it too and might buy a bottle, thank God. I've seen comments saying it's linear and simplistic: that may be true, but imo it's also incredibly good at what it does.

Think of the opening as a complete opened up cardamom pod, with a couple of pink pepper pods sitting inside, a few drops of pineapple / melon, smallest of sprinkles from vanilla, a sprinkle of chestnut and a shave of wood.Emporio Armani Stronger With You Intense fragrance for men is based around a warm vanilla heart and vibrant ambery woods accord, with a contrast of pink pepper notes. The aged cognac color perfectly embodies the intense character of the new fragrance. Initial projection and sillage is strong but after an hour contracts into a skin scent. The flowers also make their presence known at this point but they don't seem to take over. 1hr 30 mins in and it smells like a well used high end leather billfold. Thankfully, it also does not have L'Homme Ideal's old-fashioned aldehydic powderiness - all of which contribute to this frag feeling as timeless as the iconic Bleu de Chanel. It's equally well-blended as BdC too. Basically, IMO this is to warm spicy frags what BdC is to blue freshies: perfection. The scent communicates with sensuality: the smoky Vanilla Jungle Essence™ falls in love with the sugar coated chestnut accord, succumbing to his magnetism: STRONGER WITH YOU. I can't say the longevity on this but it did seem to last long on my skin. Sprayed on my hand and went through the day, and even washed my hands a couple of times.

After 2 hrs it reaches the base note of vanilla. That's about an hour longer than it takes Dior Homme Intense which has a similar vanilla base but DHI has lemon notes added which contribute to it smelling like bug spray. SwY thankfully doesn't have that problem but its base is a boring and generic and slightly rubbery vanilla/amber/tonka bean accord found in so many other frags. It is very sweet throughout but not too sweet for me, it has enough completely and depth so that I don’t get annoyed by it. I love to keep smelling it and wearing it. Fruity, nutty, spicy, warm, a hint of fruity sweetness, it's everything I imagine an autumn fragrance to be.

Made an account just to post this. People bash this fragrance but I don't get one thing. You like Armani code profumo but you dislike this, you like 1 million but you hate this?

Top: Spicy pink pepper essence gets combined with the addictive sugar coated chestnut accord to bring a new originality to the composition I’ve got a 2018 bottle and it’s strong but not oppressive, however if it’s been weakened from reformulation (I’ve only smelled the 2018 formula) I might even prefer that so it could be sprayed more and cover a larger surface area without choking your partner out, because this is an excellent fragrance for intimacy. In fact, the 2018 bottle is great for both intimacy and clubs in the same way that Versace Eros is. Unlike Eros, it doesn’t work in high heat and humidity.

Performance is fantastic, great projection for the first 3 hours. Lasts about 8-10 hours depending on how heavy you go on the sprayer. A wonderful classy and safe designer men's fragrance in the same westernized warm spicy vein of Dior Homme Intense, Dolce & Gabbana's The One, Guerlain's L'Homme Ideal and even Viktor & Rolf's Spicebomb Extreme. The aftershave by Emporio Armani, Stronger With You, is a warm, sensual eau de toilette for men, featuring spicy accords in the top notes of - a mix of cardamom, pink peppercorn, and violet leav I ♥ sweet fragrance that I even wear Armani Code Profumo in the summer. However, I cannot tolerate the artificial synthetic sweetness in Stronger-With-You. The initial blast of Sweetness is so Pungently strong that it can induced a medical Diabetic Coma. I suffer an instant headache and had to rush to a bathroom to scrub it off. The only other cologne that induce this nausea was Azzaro Wanted, which A.S.W.Y copied perfectly but demand you pay 2X the price for the ARMANI name. Even though I cannot tolerate Azzaro Wanted, I think it is still a much better Fragrance than ASWY at half-the-cost. The perfume that got me into perfume. An ex wore it but, to my despair, had forgotten its name. I spent years wondering what it was until I smelled it again on a colleague. After weeks of indecision, I caved and asked him what scent he was wearing: "Stronger With You by Armani", he told me. I made a beeline to the closest beauty store and lo and behold, there it was! At long last!

Let me tell you my experience. Yes it is super generic but how does it smell like? Like a god-damn perfume worthy of being in the top sales. It's a nice vanilla scent that when asked about it, 5/5 people said it is really good. For your average noses this is worthy of a buy, but not for your average fragrantica user. Intensely' is okay (I own that one too), 'absolutely' I had to give away because it was just way too heavy and cloying, so much so that it makes me nauseous when my friend wears it around me. Imo they aren't really different enough to need more than one from this line though unless you are totally obsessed with this type of frag. There are obviously differences but to the average person (non frag head) there isn't a huge world of difference. Base: Associated with a new Boubon Vetiver note, the ambery woods accord intensifies the vibrant side of the sillage Lasts a good 6 hours on skin and is moderately loud. I'd be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn't at least appreciate this scent, especially in areas of the world like the northeastern US where autumn is such a beloved and celebrated season. Unlike other warm spicy frags, this never strays into the medicinal. Instead it cleverly utilizes the sweet nutty note of chestnut with smoke and what smells like a green grassy note like patchouli or vetiver. The end result is the chestnut smells effervescent and sparkling like if you were having a champagne along with your chestnut.The vanilla isn’t too overt of a note to me, as it is in the Tom Ford TV dupe I own, it pulls the aromatic sage, spice, cardamom and fruity nuances together into a warm sweet comforting spicy fragrance. The top and middle notes are well blended together and last a good 3-6 hours before you’re left with a woody nut sweet intimate skin scent for at least another 6 hours. Stronger With You has inherited a confident elegance, with the easy nonchalance of youth, conveyed by the sage at its aromatic heart. These notes combine with the smoky Vanilla Jungle Essence™ and the sugar coated chestnut accord, producing an irresistible men’s fragrance. The fragrance for men has inherited a confident elegance, with the easy nonchalance of youth, conveyed by the sage at his aromatic heart.
