  1. Very similar to the original Invictus, but with a fruitier and fresher twist. It’s like they mixed the OG, Aqua Profumo, and the 2018 version. The longevity-to-price ratio is brutal; it’s worth every penny. On my skin, it lasts 6-7 hours, and on clothes, over 10. 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 price-to-performance ratio is insane and totally worth it—highly recommended. On my skin, it lasts 6-7 hours, and on clothes, more than 10.

    It’s 100% Invictus at a steal of a price… A super clean, fruity scent that projects hard. Projection rating: 8.5/10.

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

    A solid Invictus alternative for $35. On my skin, it lasts 5-6 hours, and on clothes, up to a full day. Moderate projection, but the sillage reaches about a meter.

  6. This fragrance has serious punch, trail, projection, and longevity. If you over-spray, it’s overwhelming due to its strength. I kept it because I’m not a fan of the original Invictus, but this is very well done.

    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 (about $20). The scent is identical, lasts over 7 hours, and the projection is a one-meter bubble. If you like Invictus, buy this blind; it’s the same scent for less and worth it. 5/5 for price, performance, and similarity.

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

    No need to overexplain—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 can easily tell the difference. Longevity is similar, but it’s less fresh and I feel it lasts longer. An incredible alternative at a crazy price. I’ve already bought it twice and it won’t be missing from my collection.
