Invictus Aftershave & Perfumes for Men

Learn more about Invictus fragrance

• What are the main notes of Rabanne's Invictus perfumes?
  

  Rabanne's Invictus fragrance stands out with its bold contrast of crisp freshness and animal sensuality. Its main notes include marine accents, zesty grapefruit accords, and a woody base of ambergris and guaiac wood, offering a unique and captivating olfactory signature. Those are the notes of the original Invictus Eau de Toilette; each other fragrance in the line reads them at a different intensity.

• How long do the Invictus fragrances last on the skin?
  

  It depends on the concentration. The original Eau de Toilette is the lightest of the line and holds 4 to 6 hours on skin, longer on clothing. Invictus Elixir, a Parfum Elixir, is the most intense and longest-lasting of the Classic family. Applying to moisturised pulse points and onto a shirt collar extends the trail, since fabric holds fragrance longer than skin.

• Is Invictus suitable for everyday use or rather for special occasions?
  

  Both, depending on which one you choose. The original Eau de Toilette is the everyday, daytime option, fresh on grapefruit, a marine accord and guaiac wood. Invictus Elixir is the one built for the evening, for celebrations and the colder months. Invictus Aqua is the most summery.

• What is the difference between Invictus and Invictus Victory Elixir?
  

  The original Invictus is a fresh woody Eau de Toilette built on grapefruit, a marine accord and guaiac wood. Invictus Victory Elixir belongs to the Victory branch of the line and explores a gourmand oriental of vanilla and tonka bean. They share the trophy bottle and nothing else olfactively.
  
  

• Is Invictus available in different formats or concentrations?
  

  Yes. The line runs from Eau de Toilette to Parfum and Parfum Elixir, and the fragrances are offered in 50, 100 and 200 ml sizes, depending on the fragrance. The collection also includes deodorants, shower gel, travel sprays and gift sets.

• Which Invictus should I choose?
  

  It depends on the intensity and the moment. Invictus Eau de Toilette is the original and the most versatile, fresh on grapefruit, a marine accord and guaiac wood. Invictus Elixir is the most intense and longest-lasting of the Classic family, combining salted mineral, aromatic cypress and vanilla caviar. Invictus Aqua is the most summery, with a frosted, iodised transparency. Invictus Parfum pushes the signature further with fresh lavender and addictive musk. In the Victory branch, Victory and Victory Elixir move to a gourmand oriental of vanilla and tonka bean, and Victory Absolu is the most mineral, offering black pepper, ambergris and incense.

• Which Invictus is the strongest?
  

  Within the Classic family, Invictus Elixir is the most intense and longest-lasting, because it is a Parfum Elixir concentration. The original Eau de Toilette is the lightest and most versatile of the collection.

• What is the difference between an Eau de Toilette, a Parfum and an Elixir?
  

  The difference is the concentration. An Eau de Toilette is the lightest and freshest, a Parfum is more concentrated, and a Parfum Elixir is the densest and longest-lasting of the three.

• Which Invictus is best for each season?
  

  Invictus Eau de Toilette suits spring and summer and daytime wear. Invictus Aqua is the most summery of the line. Invictus Elixir is the one built for the evening and the colder months.

• Is Invictus for men or women?
  

  The Invictus collection is composed and marketed as a men's fragrance. The profiles are not restrictive, so any of them can be worn by anyone drawn to salt, citrus, dry wood or warm vanilla.

• What is the Invictus bottle?
  

  Every Invictus fragrance is presented in the sculpted trophy bottle, a classic ornamental design embodying success. The original stands in clear glass and silver, Invictus Elixir is cast in gold, and Invictus Aqua takes sea-blue glass, so the colour of the trophy tells you which reading of the line you are holding.

• Is Invictus a good gift?
  

  Yes. The trophy bottle makes the collection immediately recognisable, the line includes ready-made gift sets pairing a fragrance with a deodorant and a travel spray, and rabanne.com adds the art of gifting: exclusive gifts when spending over £50.
