Projection And Longevity
Now, I will cover the lasting capability and projection of these well-known colognes.
When you are getting a designer fragrance, you need to check out how it will perform and if it’s up to your expectations.
My husband got Le Male Elixir by JPG for its monstrous projection. He said whenever he wears it, people notice his scent even after two or three hours of application. And it lasts up to 12 hours, so he is tension-free after using this bad boy.
On the contrary, Stronger With You Intensely has more lasting capability as it lasts around 14 hours.
However, in terms of projection, though it’s strong at the beginning, it starts to fade as time goes by, and until the dry-down, it performs moderately.
So, it’s clear that Le Male Elixir provides better performance than Armani Stronger With You Intensely as its projection is stronger.
Compliment Factor
What’s the point of cologne if it doesn’t get you any flattery? Now, let’s compare which of these high-quality scents gets more praise.
Emporio Armani Stronger With You Intensely by Giorgio Armani is, without any doubt, a cologne that’s meant to last. Whenever my husband wears it, people notice him even from 6 feet away and he also gets asked about his scent.
Meanwhile, JPG Le Male Elixir is no less in this sector. With its tremendous sillage and projection, it brings a lot more compliments at any party or event.
It’s clear that in the compliment factor, both of these masculine fragrances attract attention. So, it’s a tie in this regard.
Versatility
My husband prefers adaptability over price. So you can guess why both of this Armani and Jean Paul Gaultier’s most hyped colognes are in his closet.
But if you try them both, you will be able to set their adaptability apart.
SWY Intensely is only wearable during winter and fall. The cold weather spreads its delicious, rich scent more properly. For any special occasion like a date or anniversary, it’s an ideal pick.
Anyway, in the warmer days, it becomes overwhelming due to the presence of intense smelling notes. So, avoid it in summer.
On the flip side, Le Male Elixir Jean Paul Gaultier also suits the chilly nights and days of autumn and winter effortlessly. The best part is you can wear this mass-appealing cologne in the spring, too.
So, without any doubt, Le Male Elixir is the most versatile cologne among the two as it’s wearable in more seasons.
Value For Money
Most of the branded fragrances come with a hefty price tag. The main reason it’s their qualityful ingredients, lasting power, and overall performance. And the pricing also varies from brand to brand.
Giorgio Armani’s Stronger With You Intensely is available in three sizes. The smallest size is 30ml, and it costs nearly about $79. The medium flacon is 50 ml and costs around 80 to 87 dollars, and the largest one is 100 ml and costs even more.
Conversely, Le Male Elixir comes with two sizing options. Its 75ml flacon is around $114, and the 125ml will cost you up to 145 dollars.
Now, considering the longevity, complement factors, and versatility, Le Male Elixir by Jean Paul Gaultier is the winner here.
Overall Scent
Last but not least is the overall scent comparison. Stronger With You Intensely Giorgio Armani represents the excitement of the first love.
The opening is enriched with the spicy-powdery nuance that comes from blending pink pepper with violet. You will also sense the balsamic tone of the juniper, which will lift your mood instantly.
Its fougere accent becomes prominent as the core starts to show. Lavender and sage act as herbal ingredients and toffee diffuses a sweet aroma that intensifies due to the presence of cinnamon.
Vanilla and amber are the stars of the base. This mesmerizing merging becomes soft yet harsh as amber and leather tunes together. Gorgeous, isn’t it?
In contrast, Jean Paul Gaultier’s Le Male Elixir spreads an irresistible refreshing mixture of mint and lavender at the top.
Slowly, this amber fougere cologne starts to show its seductive charisma as the delicious aroma of vanilla tunes with the warmth of benzoin. This sensational hunch becomes more prominent in the dry-down.
The sweet, gourmand yet powdery aura of honey blends with the nutty smell of tonka bean. And finally, the rich herbal smell of tobacco creates an addictive environment at last that draws the attention of the ladies. And every time my hubby wears it, even my mood gets better.
So, now the final question is, which of these cologne has a great combination?
As I got to experience both of these wonderful fragrances, in my opinion, Le Male Elixir has the upper hand here due to its simple yet super effective note formulation.
