  1. Very similar to the original Invictus, but with a fruitier, fresher twist. It’s like they’ve blended the OG, Aqua Profunda, and the 2018 version. The longevity-to-price ratio is brilliant; it’s worth every penny. Lasts 6-7 hours on my skin and over 10 on clothes. Highly recommended.

  2. Almost identical to the original Invictus, but with a fruitier, fresher twist. It’s like a blend of the OG, the Aqua, and the 2018 version. The longevity-to-price ratio is brilliant and it’s well worth it; highly recommended. On my skin it lasts 6-7 hours, and on clothes more than 10.

    It’s 100% Invictus at a bargain price… A super clean, fruity scent that projects strongly. Projection rated 8.5/10.

    A good alternative to Invictus for just $35. On my skin it lasts 5-6 hours, and on clothes it lingers all day if you don’t take them off. Moderate projection; the trail is about a metre.

    A good alternative to Invictus for $35. On my skin it lasts 5-6 hours, and on clothes up to a full day. Projection is moderate, but the trail reaches about a metre.

  6. This fragrance has excellent sillage, projection, and longevity. If you over-spray, it can be overwhelming due to its strength. I kept it because I’m not a fan of the original Invictus, but it’s very well executed.

    This is 100% Invictus; you’d have to be an expert to spot the difference. For the price, it’s a steal: 19,990 Chilean pesos (around $20). The scent is identical, lasts over 7 hours, and the projection is a one-metre bubble. If you like Invictus, buy this blind; it’s the same for less and worth it. 5/5 for price, performance, and similarity.

    I won’t go on at length: this cologne is Invictus in a different bottle. Same scent and longevity with moderate projection. There’s nothing more to add.

    No need to elaborate further; this cologne is Invictus in a different bottle. Same scent and longevity with moderate projection. Nothing more to add.

    It’s not a carbon copy of Paco Rabanne’s Invictus; the base notes are different, so an expert will easily notice the distinction. Longevity is similar, but it feels less fresh and lasts longer. It’s an incredible alternative at a crazy price. I’ve already bought it twice and it won’t be missing from my collection for long.
