If you're a guy in Sarawak looking for a perfume you can actually wear to the office, the Rue Broca Pride line is worth a proper look. Today we're comparing two of them: Pride Intense and Pride Pour Homme. Both are 100ml EDPs made for men, and both have vanilla sitting in the base notes, so if you like a bit of warmth under your scent, keep reading.
Pride Intense
Pride Intense is an aromatic woody perfume built for men. It opens with bergamot and lavender, which gives it a fresh, clean start — the kind of opening that feels right for office mornings. As it settles, you get the heart notes of amberwood, cedar and patchouli, and then the base brings in musk, vanilla and vetiver. The vanilla keeps things smooth while the vetiver adds a dry, earthy edge, so it doesn't come out overly sweet.
Because of that structure, Pride Intense fits a wide range of days. It's listed for formal occasions, everyday wear, casual outings and special occasions too. If your week is mostly office, meetings and the occasional dinner out, this one covers all of it with a single bottle.
Pride Pour Homme
Pride Pour Homme goes in a slightly different direction — it's a sweet spicy woody perfume. Right at the top you get cinnamon together with bergamot, so the first impression is warm and spicy instead of purely fresh. The heart blends amberwood, patchouli and lavender, and the base rounds things off with vanilla, musk and woody notes.
Like Pride Intense, it's made for men and works across formal, everyday, casual and special occasions. If you want your office scent to have a bit more personality — something with a sweet-spicy kick rather than a straight fresh opener — this is the one of the two that leans that way.
Which one suits an office day in Sarawak?
Sarawak is hot and humid pretty much all year, so you'll usually be moving between the heat outside and air-conditioned offices or malls. Both perfumes here are EDPs, so they're concentrated enough for that kind of day, and both come in 100ml bottles that suit regular daily use.
The real difference is the opening. Pride Intense starts with bergamot and lavender, so it feels fresher and more classic — a safe pick if your workplace is quite formal or conservative. Pride Pour Homme starts with cinnamon and bergamot, so it's warmer and spicier from the first spray. It still works for the office, but it has a bolder character that also suits dinner plans or events after work.
There are smaller differences too. Pride Intense has cedar in the heart and vetiver in the base, while Pride Pour Homme finishes with woody notes instead. Both share amberwood and patchouli in the heart, and both land on vanilla and musk at the end — that's the shared vanilla thread between them.
Quick way to decide
- Pick Pride Intense if you want a fresh, aromatic woody scent with a clean bergamot and lavender start.
- Pick Pride Pour Homme if you prefer something sweet and spicy that opens with cinnamon.
- If you can't decide, remember both end the same way — musk and vanilla — so you're really choosing the journey, not the destination.
Either way, you're getting a 100ml EDP for men from Rue Broca that handles formal days, casual weekends and everything in between. That's honestly all you need from an office perfume in Sarawak.
