What does Invictus Aqua (2018) smell like?

Grapefruit and violet leaf keep it light and bright, while marine notes add an aquatic coolness. Brazilian rosewood, woods and ambergris settle this into a soft, slightly sweet, woody base. Floral and fruity touches stay in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, with leisure, daily wear and sport leading the occasions. It reads masculine and modern. Rabanne Invictus Aqua (2016) and Rabanne Invictus (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
