Creating the perfect masculine fragrance is an extremely difficult task. If all kinds of notes are acceptable for women, then balance is important for men. The perfume must have sharp, tenacious, strict notes, but if you go too far with them, all efforts will be in vain. The most ideal fragrances at the moment are those that are released by luxury fashion houses. Among them, “Invictus” from “Paco Raban” is far from the last. Reviews about the fragrance, its description, characteristics and other data read below.
Perfume and their spirit
In the modern world of men's perfumes, there is an incredible amount of fresh and sparkling scents. In contrast to them are spicy, oriental, gourmet. Both of them, no doubt, are chic, but rarely unique spirits come on sale that embody courage, strength, freshness, lightness and spice. This is a controversial mix, but he successfully "caught on" in a bottle called "Invictus" by Paco Raban. Reviews do not lie - it is a smell that seems to take us to the ancient ancient atmosphere. It reminds of deities and athletes, of the titans and beautiful nymphs. Perfumes are unique, multifaceted and have their own special, unique character. It may be that not everyone will like such a flavor, but if you love it, you definitely have a non-standard taste and a dissenting opinion.
Olfactory Pyramid
Before we study in detail the reviews about the men's perfume “Invictus” from “Paco Raban”, you should familiarize yourself with the main components that formed their basis. Four perfumers worked on their selection and association - Olivier Polieux, Ann Flipo, Veronique Nyberg and Dominic Ropion. As a result, the aroma turned out to be watery, supported by a wood base. It was based on the following components:
- Initial notes: mandarin, grapefruit and marine motifs.
- Heart notes: laurel and jasmine.
- Base accord: oak moss, guyak tree, ambergris and patchouli.
Conventionally, these spirits can be called a bridge that connects extremely fresh and light notes and saturated, painful, woody and slightly oriental. In the middle there is nothing - the abyss. That is why the fragrance is incredibly courageous, uncompromising and even daring.
What do men say?
Is everyone so madly in love with Invictus from Paco Raban? Reviews of most men really testify in his favor. The fragrance turned out to be very unusual, and this is against the background of the fact that thousands of perfumes are now being produced, among which it is very difficult to find a standing instance. Perhaps this olfactory pyramid will not be to everyone's taste - it is actually non-standard, sharp enough and can cause both delight and rejection. Fans of perfume call this combination, one might say, of the polar components unique. Not every manufacturer decides to release something like this. Well, those who did not like the fragrance simply declare this, noting that perfumes still have quality and style, and they are at their best.
Resistance and loop
To determine these indicators in the best way possible, based on reviews. The Invictus men's perfume by Paco Raban is an incredibly persistent composition. On the body and clothes, perfumes can last more than 8 hours. Throughout the day they will unfold with fresh, light, marine notes. Tenacity and sharpness with all this will be ensured by the wood, which lies in the base, and due to ambergris. Particular attention in the reviews about “Invictus” from “Paco Raban” is given to their train. He is incredibly strong, enveloping and long lasting. The aroma fills the room, but does not cause a headache. Others will feel it at a distance even at the end of the day, making compliments and smiling at you.
When to wear these perfumes?
Under the daily and seasonal classification fall not only women's fragrances, but also men's. The reviews about “Invictus” from “Paco Raban” tell us that this perfume is designed for daytime and even in the morning. This is a fresh, sporty, marine aroma that many are identified with the images of athletes and titans from the era of Antiquity. Therefore, it is best to wear this perfume to the gym, to walk with friends, to informal meetings in the daytime, etc. Spirits are not very suitable for the office, as they do not have a “business core” and are not very harmoniously combined with suits.
First replica
After the enchanting success of the original Invictus perfume, Paco Raban released his first flanker, called Intense. From its predecessor, the aroma is more saturated and masculine. It is much deeper, multifaceted, solid. A great choice for evening events, sometimes suitable for the office (in combination only with very expensive costumes). Most importantly, it is worth noting that the very structure of the “bridge” has been preserved in perfume, so that it remains as impudent, cocky and reckless. It’s just that they added something to each of the polar components, and they became richer and brighter.
Olfactory composition
This fragrance was developed in 2016. The composition belongs to the category of oriental woody, but the aroma is filled not only with spicy notes, but also with animals. He is very sensual, truly masculine and strong. What components made up such a composition?
- Initial notes: black pepper and orange blossom.
- Heart notes: laurel and whiskey.
- Base accord: ambergris, ambergris and salt.
The reviews about Invictus Intens from Paco Raban only prove that the composition was more than perfect. This is the same combination of "alpha male", which makes all women to turn around and puzzle over what kind of perfume it was.
Other characteristics
Like its predecessor, Intense fragrance has simply chic durability and a strong loop. These perfumes stay on the body for up to 12 hours, on clothes they can shimmer with their spicy-watery notes until the next wash. The perfume loop is beyond praise, and reviews prove it. The male “Invictus Intens” from “Paco Raban” is heard before the man appears in front of you, and after his departure you still feel the notes that he smelled of.
Perfumes are universal, only they need to find an approach. They will be in harmony with daytime images, if they have enough status, strength and courage. In other cases, it is better to use the aroma as an evening one. It is most advantageously combined with leather jackets and branded glasses.
Second replica
In the same 2016, another flanker of the sensational Invictus perfume entered the world. Hand in hand with a courageous and cocky aroma went deep, soft, rich and literally philosophical perfumes. It seems that the brand decided to embody in this collection all the charms of ancient life - strength, courage, beauty and philosophy. As a representative of the latter came out a fragrance called "Paco Raban Invictus Aqua". Reviews let us know that these perfumes, like their predecessors, are not for everyone. There is a feeling that you must first experience the impressions of the first fragrance - recharge with vigor, energy, strength. Then comes the Intense time - masculinity, passion and ... lust. After all earthly vices have been overcome, the Aqua time is coming - it is calm against the background of experience, balance and balance, harmony, peace and incredible, unshakable strength.
Olfactory Pyramid
Along with daring and bright perfume, a delicate and magnificent was created in 2016. It was based on components similar to the original version, but they seemed to be slightly diluted and supplemented with other, rarest notes. The result was a watery-woody composition that, like a meditative trance, carries to the ocean, to the vast expanses of water and sky.
- Initial notes: pink pepper, grapefruit and yuzu.
- Middle notes: sea water and violet leaves.
- Base notes: oud, ambergris and amber.
The most unique composition is sweet and fresh, salty and spicy, light and woody. And the unique combination of oud and amber has become an unshakable core, thanks to which the perfume does not just rest on the body, but plays until the end of the day.
Fragrance Characteristics
The feedback helped us fully understand the essence and nature of these non-standard perfumes. Men's “Paco Raban Invictus Aqua” is only at first glance a light, slightly sweet perfume. In fact, it is very deep and "wise", it is difficult to open and plays for a long time with its unusual and atypical notes for most men's fragrances. These are perfumes for philosophers. They are ideal for mature men, status and majestic. They will be most harmoniously combined with suits, coats, trench coats, with creative but restrained clothing. But it is important to emphasize that to a greater extent this is still a daytime scent. It is associated with the sea, the sun, with warm weather.
Unique design
Separately, it is worth mentioning about all the bottles in which three famous perfumes called "Invictus" are packed. They differ from each other only in color - the original version is designed in a gray palette, the Intens flanker is black, and the Aqua is light blue. But what matters is not the shade at all, but the form in which the aromas are enclosed. The bottle is made in the form of an ancient antique amphora, with handles and a flat top. There is no lid on it. To use the perfume, just click on the top - and the spray will work. In this case, the design exactly matches the nature of perfumes and, like the content, deserves the highest rating.
