Despite the sweetness, this is a confident & versatile frag!

If ever a fragrance could encapsulate warmth, confidence, and gourmand appeal, SWYI does so incredibly well. This juice has become one of my favorite scents, and with good reason - it's one of the rare fragrances that gets a heartfelt seal of approval from my wife. In fact, it’s been one of my top 10 in 2024, and this is my (slow) continued effort to write a note about all of them.

The scent itself is balancing intensity and sweetness. It opens with an inviting blend of spiced cinnamon and pink pepper, immediately creating a warm aura. As it settles, the heart reveals a twist of lavender and toffee. The base is an attractive mix of vanilla (to date, one of the best I ever smelled... including niche) and amberwood that lingers for most of the day.

What I like most about this fragrance is its versatility. Whether I’m heading to a formal event, enjoying a casual dinner, or just embracing the everyday moments, SWYI fits into the narrative - I just need to adjust the numbers of spray. It's powerful yet not overwhelming, sweet without being cloying, and rugged enough have its own distinctive texture.

To conclude, in my opinion this is one of the best contemporary gourmand/vanilla based frags that could rival more expensive concoctions.

I like this one over the absolutely…

…BARELY. The entire line (while I wait patiently for SWY Leather to arrive via FedEx) smells very similar, but this is my fave.

I am a SUCKER for these Winter Season Sweetbombs. I admit it. This one leaves more of a “taste” behind than many of the others that are out there, though. The smell is so gourmand, that you really “visualize” the aroma that you’re getting.

The projection is BEASTLY on my skin. A radius of 6ft+ easily, and a sillage trail that lingers like you spilled the sticky syrup all over everything and everyone is still smelling it. Longevity for me is an easy 8+hours as well.

That extreme gourmand vibe might scare some people away though. Anyone who fears a fragrance being somewhat “feminine” might be afraid to rock it. Don’t get me wrong. It is NOT a feminine scent, but if you’re an “Aventus alpha” or “Drakkar Dragon” you might be afraid of wearing this. This is one that a woman could pull off easily, and be very attractive while doing so.

Again, what makes this stand out to me, is the “pseudo flavor” the aroma leaves behind; well done, and one of my faves.

Signature-scent worthy

There's not much to be said that hasn't already been said about this perfume. You really can't go wrong wearing this. Personally on my skin, it sits really well. It smells fantastic, it has large projection and it lasts for at least eight hours.

I think the only worthy competitor to another cinnamon perfume would be the Stronger With You Absolutely, which smells very similar to the Intensely.

A night out is indeed, Stronger With You

After having lurked on here for a long time, I thought I'd actually create an account and contribute to the good works done by all of you.

Anyway, where to begin? This fragrance is everything I want it to be and more. The projection and strong gourmand combined with its outstanding sweetness makes it perfect for any club or party occasion. And therefore it has also become one of my go-to fragrances when I go out. As I'm writing this, I can almost feel the scent and the aroma. The toffee and cinnamon is really working this one. The top pepper note too. The scent will captivate any nose, and to me it's nowhere near synthetic. I find this not to be a daily wear, but for when you want people to notice you. Rarely are gourmand fragrances worn, so clearly you will be more noticeable. Though a quick warning - the scent isn't intense or strong in a masculine sense. Still, it’s clearly a fragrance for men! Stronger with you, not so much. And I suppose mainly this is for the younger audience.

The longevity is very acceptable (great), not the best yet far from the worst. I find spraying a decent amount will result in more than enough for its main purpose when I go out. The bottle will contribute nicely to any collection, but I find that this is meant to be worn at least a couple of times a month! I leave that up to you.

I wish you all a pleasant experience discovering this fragrance for yourselves. In my books, it's a banger.
