Invictus Aqua by Paco Rabanne, a moment of intense freshness

Since its release in 2013, everyone has only been talking about him. Invictus is undoubtedly one of the bestsellers of the Paco Rabanne house. Men find themselves in his strength and in his virility. Women, for their part, see it as the hero of all their fantasies. Also, fans will be delighted to hear that Invictus is returning in 2016 in a brand new version. For the occasion, Paco Rabanne decided to increase his feeling of freshness. The newcomer to the house will now be called Invictus Aqua and will be more energizing than ever.

The Icy Wind by Paco Rabanne

Invictus was imagined by perfumer Véronique Nyberg. The latter was then surrounded by three renowned perfumers to finalize its creation, namely Anne Flipo, Olivier Polge and Dominique Ropion. Invictus is a very high quality perfume that required no less than two and a half years of work and 5,000 tests. Also, after three years of waiting, it was finally adapted in a new version, fresher still, but just as worked. The new Invictus Aqua retains all its virility and draws it from woody olfactory tones. We find there the power of ambergris, the sophistication of amber woods and the strength of guaiac wood. What is more, its assertive character is found in spices and more particularly in pink pepper. Furthermore, this perfume does not lack originality since it uses a rare ingredient: yuzu. This citrus fruit is native to China but is cultivated in Japan. It has the particularity of delivering a very fragrant zest. In addition, it is associated with grapefruit and their citrus notes confer great liveliness to Invictus Aqua. Nonetheless, the real change comes from the intensification of its marine accord. This one is more sustained and surrounded by the vegetal aspect of the violet leaf. The fragrance only becomes fresher and intends to breathe an invigorating wind in everyday life. it is associated with grapefruit and their citrus notes confer great liveliness to Invictus Aqua.

Invictus Aqua invites us behind the scenes of the stadium

When Paco Rabanne launches a new perfume, he likes to take us into a universe. Also, the designer first created two rock icons with his Black XS collection. Then, One Million and Lady Million invited us to a most luxurious and sulphurous atmosphere. Gold was everywhere and was the source of all power. With Invictus , it was time for victory. The world of sport mingled with that of mythology. We then found a hero of modern times brandishing a trophy while being acclaimed by a horde of delirious supporters. Well, this time the story continues. We follow the handsome rugby player Nick Youngquest, muse of perfume, into the locker room. There, he is in the company of two naiads passing him ice and scented water on the still hot body. The cries of the crowd are heard but are now more distant. Although the atmosphere is refreshing, the rendering is still as sensual. Likewise, the bottle remains substantially the same. It is still the famous trophy. However, the glass of the latter is no longer as transparent. A thin frosted film covers it. It is similar to the perfume it contains:
