⚠️ The trap
These are identical in meaning. The trap here is for Italians learning English: 'arrogant' in English is exclusively negative. In Italian 'arrogante' also only negative — no trap. But learners should know that 'prepotente' (overbearing, bullying) is a related and commonly used Italian word with a stronger meaning.
To say "having an exaggerated sense of one's own importance" in Italian:
N/A (same meaning)
"arrogante" in English means:
arrogant, haughty, full of oneself
Example
"Il suo capo è arrogante e non ascolta mai i dipendenti."
"Her boss is arrogant and never listens to employees."
