Invictus Elixir

I dont understand all the hate from people on here about every new cologne? Both Paradigms, the new 1 million, now this? It's really annoying and seems like trolls just trying to push cheap middle eastern dupes. Every one I've tried that all these people swear are way better, they're all junk. So personally I like designer Fragrances. I trust the brands. I know they're not putting some crazy cancerous chemicals in it to recreate a designer scent. And i just don't like companies that steal someone else's work. Middle Eastern crap is just that, crap. Ill stick with great, original stuff like this. Ill smell good and not grow antlers on my butt cheeks. Good luck trolls with your bash quests. But this is one guy that's not buying your lies. This is a great scent that lasts forever. Huge compliment getter with a delicious drydown. It doesn't smell like oud farts or burnt hair like the crazy middle east crap or weird niche junk you people push. You know, the $800 bottle of cat pee that influencers swear chics dig. .... My advice, buy what you like. Ignore 99% of the reviews here. And definitely shrug off social media posts. Just go out, nose up to some stuff and take home what you like. Ignore these losers. Good stuff. Had someone track me down in the grocery store just to tell me how good I smelled. The guy said him and his wife were stunned by the scent and had to tell me. So, this one goes to the top of my rotation.

Invictus Elixir is my type of fragrance! Fresh, airy, clean, lightly mineralic, sweet, woody, coconut, vanilla. Opens with a sharp citrus pop. The mineral note adds sharpness. Freshness. Along a bite of coconut. Crisp and fresh. Not creamy or sun tan lotion. Quickly leans into lavender and cypress giving it a similar vibe to Invictus Parfum mixed with Victory Elixir. Unique lavender mixed with Victory Elixir. The initial freshness and coconut, still apparent. The dry down is where it becomes its own thing. Soft vanilla woods. More elegant and softer than the Elixir/Absolu other flankers while still having depth and longevity. Invictus Elixir projects decently for a few hours and lasts all day. It stays noticeable on skin until I shower. I wouldn't wear this in very intense heat, but I think Invictus Elixir works well for almost anything. It's sweet, but not like candy. Almost year round usability. Well crafted. I know some people will dislike this a lot, but I feel this is a great scent for anyone from 16-60 years old. I've had almost all the Invictus flankers and this is my favorite next to Aqua. Highly recommend Invictus Elixir if you're in the market for an attention grabbing scent that has more going on than expected.

Goddamn Rabanne did not hold any punches with this one. Massive performance, got a small sample at the store today, just a tiny spritz and it immediately punched my nose, in a good way. This is the greatest hits collection of the entire Invictus line smashed into one fragrance with a BIG wollop of creamy gourmandy vanilla. This is gonna be a monster hit, I have a hard time seeing any other outcome. First blast to me is just classic Invictus but smoother and bit richer and then immediately that gourmand vanilla creeps forward. Classic Invictus and elbow to the face with vanilla and sweetness. The coconut actually gives this a similar vibe to One Million Parfum and I think it kinda fits that same niche, very sweet and strong but so bright it kinda works in summer and spring too? It's doable in summer nights or cooler windy days. Basically this is Invictus with a heavy vanilla sunscreen accord imho.

Can definitely smell the Invictus DNA within this fragrance, it’s got that sharp mineral slightly salty kick in the beginning. I think this is the best flanker we’ve had though. It contrasts really nicely with this vanilla caviar note that smells like raw vanilla bean being squeezed out, definitely not a cakey or dessert style vanilla but much more refined and sensual. As it develops some green and aromatic tones come through and you get this creamy textured slightly sweet rounded coconut accord which doesn’t overwhelm. The dry down is really pleasant and the whiffs just carry on for ages in a really enjoyable way. I know it’s frustrating with how many flankers brands are releasing but there’s no denying how good some of these fragrances actually smell.

This is the one that finally sold me on Invictus. I’ve enjoyed the others but there was always something small that put me off. This one is just incredible. The perfect blend of coconut and vanilla creates a scent that you can’t get enough of. It’s projects and lasts all day, which is huge, because I found Invictus Victory Absolu to lose projection on skin really fast. I loved it so much I bought the 6.7 ounce during the Fragflex sale over the July 4th holiday. It arrived today and now I’m set for a long time.

I just created my profile to write a review of how good this fragrance actually is. The salty mineral notes with the grapefruit in the opening blend amazing with the coconut and vanilla. I also get a hint of salted caramel which is what a lot of people have said it smelled like on me. The longevity is actually insane. Ive sprayed it on 3 times since i bought it. All three times i was going out and even the next morning i could smell it like i just sprayed it on. It last a minimum of 12 hours on my skin

This smells like white chocolate (due to the vanilla, coconut) with a touch of your typical Invictus bubblegummy freshness (but not as synthetic.) I was actually planning on buying either the Le Beau Paradise Garden (the coconut was a turn off for me) or Invictus Perfum, but loved the scent of Invictus Elixir a lot more. Invictus Elixir is fresh enough for you to wear year round as long as you manage your sprays during the summer months (or just wear it at night 🙂.)

The best Rabanne Elixir I’ve smelled. It incorporates the most seamless blend of notes in the lineup. The coconut and vanilla give it a nice twist I wasn’t expecting. Performance is on par with 1 Million Elixir, but the scent profile is better blended, like Victory Elixir. The dry down keeps a touch of creamy coconut with a fresh woody minerality and a hint of vanilla that isn’t sickeningly sweet.

This fragrance looks promising, according to the accords wood and vanilla are the strongest and that's my favorite combo. So I'll wait and test the fragrance to see if I like it bc I haven't smelled a salty fragrance ever but with that coconut wood and vanilla I'm convinced that this fragrance is good stuff. Rabbane never disappoints so.... I'll have to get myself a bottle of this.

Its a bit bubblegummy sweet but still a bit fresh in the opening. Drys down to a gorgeous vanilla. Doesnt feel new at all. If you dont own some vanilla scents before its a nice pickup tho. I really like it. The performance is massive. I can easily smell it 12 hours later. I wouldnt pay full retail and neither did I, found a cheeky 30% coupon code.

Yup the people who say this is a blend between Victory Elixir & Parfum are 100% spot on. I would say it leans ever so slightly towards Victory Elixir but it’s way more fresh than Victory Elixir. This can be worn anytime, any place & for any occasion. IMO this is the best Invictus.

I have smelled yesterday on colleague. Very good and no vanilla note. A fresher version of invictus parfum at first so i'm interested 😊 Update :I have it and it's really fresher parfum version. 2 sprays more than enough 😎

Wow! Ive never liked an Invictus before now but smelling this in a shop I fell in love straight away, the vanilla in this is perfect. The blended notes, a smooth fragrance that is amazing. Lasts a very long time.

Holy moly, this is good! I approached it with a snobby niche mindset, and I was surprised. The aquatic x vanilla x coconut x lavender concoction is working surprisingly well

One of my favorite vanillas while keeping a fresh backbone. Great performance as well. Definitely a cooler weather scent or summer nights.

Take Le Beau Paradise Garden, add Victory Elixer, and you have Invictus Elixir. That's what this is, to me. It's really nice.

A bit fresher and coconuty take on Victory Elixir. It also reminds me of the Le Beau DNA because of the coconut.

This is a pretty good! A fresher version of Victory Elixir + Fresher Invictus Parfum

A mix of comfortable warmth and sex, according to my partner. I agree with her.

Potentially being 8/10 as a late spring to summer scent

The Lovechild of Million Gold Elixir and Le Beau Le Parfum. Could also be the Lovechild of BIR The Gold Uomo and Invictus Victory Elixir. The cousin to another half dozen scents from Rabanne/JPG/Azzaro/Valentino. It’s nice but you have smelt this profile many times before... it’s super sweet syrupy, the notes listed are crazy wrong I get the Vanilla (Caviar), Salted Caramel, Benzoin, Cedarwood and hint of Coconut. The other notes do not exist. No Grapefruit, Lavender, Cypress or Oakmoss. It is tooth decayingly sweet. Cool night-time weather or Fck boy style scent. Age 15.+. Good performance. Headache inducing if over-sprayed. It feels like we are going around in circles with Rabanne trying to catch its own tail. This doesn’t feel like a flanker more like a reformulation. Party scent for dudes. It’s very pleasant but a bit in your face. Most people smelling this would think you are wearing a version of the OG 1 Million Gold. Performance is fine but it’s not nuclear. First hour it’s headache inducing and then dries in a few hours into the more coconut/honey notes before all but disappearing within 6 hours. 100ml bottle is really nice looking. 200ml is horrendous. For the scent an 8/10. For originality 1/10.

Rabanne, like JPG, are really pumping out the flankers! What can I say? Another very good vanilla-forward modern, 'sugary sweet yet with some freshness' release. I think we've long passed the point of overkill with these flankers and flankers or flankers. Slight tweaks of a formula, a new coloured bottle and packaging and then present it as something 'new'. For the general public who go into a perfume shop to buy a one-off fragrance this will be a great offering (100ml bottle looks nice too and I used to find these Invictus bottles extremely tacky 😅) but those fragrance afficionados looking for something different will be left wanting. Excellent performance as usual, strong and long-lasting vanilla dry-down.

Right off of the top this reminds me of a fresher take on Victory elixir, but as it dries it goes off in its own direction. The vanilla is still very present and sweet, but not as dense and heavy handed as in the Victory Elixir. I think younger guys would still gravitate torwards the Victory, but I actually prefer this one quite a bit. It's overall more airy, fresh, mineralic, and woody between the two and just speaks more to my personal tastes. Added bonus is that the coconut is a well blended role player rather than a star in the show. Strong like, not a love. Could grow on me, though. Projection and longevity seem very solid as well. Not a bad release!

Today was the first time i tried it. Not a fan of sweet scents but i find it as an upgraded version of Victory elixir, which at some point seemed too dull and repetitive for me. Mineral and woody notes together with surprisingly delicious and loud vanilla and lavender on the drydown conclude a rather invitive masculine scent for me. Performance is massive, lasted whole day on my skin with loud sillage for at least 6 hours. Can be an easy to reach everyday smell for all seasons except for summer.

a pretty interesting fragrance despite being mass-appealing personally i dont like mineral notes in fragrances but ill maybe make an exception about this one the smell to me is a vanilla mixed in with a tad bit of a typical "mens cologne" smell tho still dont think that its bad cause still its very interesting and pretty nice one of the designers i could suggest to a friend or even sometime i will probably buy this for myself

This Invictus Elixir is marine, salty, mineral, and above all, very woody, with a light aromatic touch and a hint of citrus. Unfortunately, I don’t get the coconut note on my skin at all, though the vanilla becomes more noticeable as it dries down. It is a fairly classic fragrance, but still quite pleasant and appealing in its own way. The woody aspect makes it very masculine.

Lighter than Victory Elixir, less intense on the coconut note. A fresher scent, especially for spring and summer when it's cooler. The bottle is gorgeous, a bit pricey for 100ml. The scent is addictive, similar to Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Mâle Elixir during the drydown, but lighter and less sweet. A sure bet.

For an elixir it’s redundant because it’s like if you mixed 30% invictus parfum with 70% invictus victory elixir. But it’s nice if you were looking for a more versatile fresher warmer weather invictus victory elixir

It's so close yet not as good as the Victory Elixir. Nobody asked for this flanker... They shouldn't have released the Absolu either. What were they even thinking???

Smells like a mix of Victory elixir and parfum. A good all rounder. Probably the best Invictus.

This one was a big let down for me. Let me start with the positive; the scent is great. The woods come out within a minute making it feel more grown up and sophisticated that the original or some of its flankers. Sweet, woody, spicy and fresh. Well balanced. Had it in order because of a sale but I canceled it. I tried it for test and the projection was not on par with other elixirs I own. The longevity is there but only as a skin scent. On clothes it also fades completely within 12 hours. The scent itself is nothing new or groundbreaking. So if this one sticks to your skin and the performance is good for you, I'd say go for it. Scent profile is blind buy safe.

Sweet, but not 11/10 sweet like Le male elixir. I get the cloud of like woodsy sweet vanilla benzoin. The top notes are very very slightly there, which I wish were stronger. Feels like a date night or dressed up type. Not sure I'd go with casual but maybe if it was cold enough and you were into something more sultry. Not usually a fan of these types/styles of fragrances though. My association is like a vanilla dryer sheet.

Got a sample. I usually prefer fragrances that are clearly made for either warm or cold weather. This one sits somewhere in the middle, which makes it difficult for me to find the right occasion to wear it. To my nose, it's too sweet for hot summer days, yet not rich or sweet enough to really shine in the colder months. In the end, I cant figure out when I'd actually reach for this. Not buying a bottle.

Smells like some of the other flankers but with a waxy coconut twist. My favorite flanker of the ones I tried is Invictus Parfum. IP is distinctive enough that it stands out a little from the crowd. This smells like the very familiar sweet bubble gummy aquatic profile of Invictus with an undesirable waxy coconut backbone. Honestly it's smells generic because the invictus DNA is ubiquitous.

It smells like a JPG Le Beau flanker. I don’t mean it as either a compliment or an insult. It’s 95% a blend of coconut and vanilla, which certainly evokes a Le Beau vibe. It performs well and lasts well(as expected for a profile like this). Might be redundant if you have other vanilla designers in your collection.

Very strong frag, can still smell this the next day on my skin, masses of vanilla & coconut making it very sweet, not sure I like it as much as I thought I would, will see how it wears in the winter as not really suitable for the warmer months.

It’s a nice scent by itself, but it’s to similar to 1 million elixir, night elixir and victory elixir. I have all of those and to me they do the same but different ways to do it, I prefer those 3 instead.

Smells a little like Le Beau Le Parfum from the coconut, but more powdery. Not "iris" powdery but more like "cheap body spray" powdery. A very uninspiring and monotonus release

Scratchy and sharp tropical fruit bomb. As a woman, this reminds me much more of the Fame line by Rabanne than of the original Invictus.

Kids you can have this smell by Mixing Le beau JPG and Invictus victory elixir, this was the laziest release in history.

@4scentsin1day go sit in a corner and read a book

I didn’t like the Parfum and I do not like the Elixir. It’s too green for me. The marine and fresh notes clash with the sweet vanilla. I also do not detect coconut. I think Phantom Elixir is much better for the sweet and salty play. I also detect elements of Victory Absolu, which again is much better for me as it doesn’t have the marine notes. Truly, if one wants marine notes, just get TF Oud Minerale.

Too sweet and more teenage vibe, rasassi hawas is 10x better and cheaper.

From first sniff, this is a certified Paco banger. It is, like many reviewers describe, some sort of fusion between Invictus Parfum and Victory Elixir. But for what it is, it culminates into an aroma far more intoxicating and addictive than it should be. Its a Paco Rabanne fragrance through and through, but amongst other designer releases, this stands out. The soapiness in Parfum can turn into a weird accord that turned me off from the buy; although overall its not a bad fragrance, this gets rid of that. Victory Elixir also felt too close to LBLP, but everything else going on here completely removes the JPG connection for me. The coconut, mineral notes, saltiness, and aromatic facets just elevate this above most of the other vanilla bombs that are half of designer releases at this point. I think you either love or hate Paco fragrances, I tend to like them more than not, they smell GOOD, its simple as that. I would rather smell sweet, fun, and youthful over serious, hypermasculine, and old any day, all day, and twice on Sundays, that's me though. And even amongst all the other delicious Invictus and One Million flankers, this one is special. This stuff is beast mode btw. If you like Paco stuff, I would highly highly recommend getting your nose on this, I, for one, will be getting a bottle.

i was sooo waiting for exactly the normal invictus elixir. but ohh boy i am so dissapointed. I LOOOOVVVVEEEE The original even if sometimes i canot smell it anymore because its too much and too strong but still to me the ultimate fragrance ever created by 4 master perfumers. i hoped that this release would be something which reminds me bit of the old one but this is too sweet and falls in the same category like the victory lines so this is more victory than a normal invitucs. invictus parfum als did it not for me because it was tooo strangely sweet still it was not bad like this but the best is still the original. i hope in the future for the original invictus they go more the direction beeing less sweet and more aromatic, i would love to see fusion more invictus type going the bleu de chanel direction shower gel or i love mr.burberry i would alos like to see more invictus original i know its sweet but it has still the aromatics and freshness in it. but everything else who came after, was too much amped up sweetness, Intense, Legend, Platinum ( was kind of ok but still to much sweetness) i hope they come with a greater invictus release but nut killing us with that strangely sweetness.

This is a (self-)importantly ceremonial moment in the ever-evolving branding story of Rabanne. The (self-)congratulatory loving cup of Invictus has finally been completely covered in gold, probably obtained from the adjacent and unabashedly plutocratic 1 Million line, along with several of its ambery and sugared notes. So the gilded Invictus trophy is now fully camera-ready to be kissed in the Winner's Circle by some kind of victorious athlete or racecar driver, while flashbulbs and champagne bottles pop! ... And that giddy, gloating winner could even be you, member of the fragrance-buying public! Get the 6.8 ounce bottle, the smaller one is too dinky to make a good trophy. What about the scent? ...Oh yeah, the trophy comes with scented liquid inside, how nice. I'm actually enjoying this on the blotter, (...but would I wear it?). The main part is an intensely potent gourmand woody-amber, ...but it's that salty metal note that adds some quasi-niche distinction, as it proudly wears its acerbically synthetic modernity on its sleeve. Isn't there some not-so-ancient myth about Ganymede falling into a vat of saltwater taffy? ...Maybe I'm thinking of something else. In some

Maybe it’s all the Ashwagandha and SSRI medication I’ve been pumping since I started my fragrance journey. I just have this Barron, nihilistic view on designer fragrances now days. Elixir, Intense, Elixir, Absolu, Intense, Elixir, Elixir, Elixir, Intense, Intense Elixir, Absolu Elixir, Elixir Night, Elixir Day, Elixir Deep, Elixir of Bonnie Blues vaginal canal after 1000 men! It’s all we’re seeing. Designer fragrances as of maybe the last 3 to 4 years are just like looking at a Pine tree in a Pine Forrest, with a million other Pine Trees. Just make an original fragrance for fuck sake. Look, I haven’t smelt this yet, I hope to soon. But my point above still stands

Please change the pic to the 100 ml 🙏🙏 As for the review, this one is niceeeeee. It’s not anything unique, I’ll say that right off the bat. It takes the Invictus DNA, more specifically that of the Parfum, and adds the vanilla from Invictus Victory Elixir. This combo works extremely well however. Very smooth, sweet, but not too sweet as the fresh notes help balance it out. You gotta try this one out if you’re a fan of the two previously mentioned fragrances. Once it arrives on discounters I will 100% be picking up a bottle.

A fresher cleaner version of invictus parfum. Really pleasant and easy to wear ..mass appealing.. Has moderate sweetness but isn't supersweet or overbearing. The vanilla caviar drydown is very addictive in the air and is a really nice twist to the invictus parfum DNA.. I also pickup some similarities to lemale lover and 1 million parfum.. Overall score 8.5/10...Not quite as good as victory elixir or absolu but still a really good scent. More geared towards cooler weather than summer..

The benzoinification of every fresh fragrance line needs to be stopped. Invictus Parfum already had one foot in Invictus Victory terittory, this just jumps in there with both feet and a thud. Not usable at all in the summer, one extra spray away from annoying, even on a colder day. What is this doing in the og line? I don't mind the scent, it is good for what it is, although very redundant to lots of other stuff as everyone is saying. But, PUIG, give us something new for the Summer!
