Fantastic fragrance. Invictus aqua 18 with the strength of the 16 but way more yuzu. Super big dose yuzu so juicy and tart!

As far as capturing PR Invictus Aqua 2016 DNA goes, this is spot on. Fresh, airy, aquatic, bubblegummy (slightly sweet). If you are using 2016 upto recently somehow saved the bottle and now running out of it, definitely do get it. However, if you're like me, read below: I loved Invictus ever since it came out, got tons of compliments until I used it, 2020 was the last year I had the pleasure of finishing up another bottle. After that tried Rich Man Aqua which was super close too however missing the performance later forgot about it since it became so overpriced I never bothered. However, recently found out about this on Dua website and I must say even tho it's quiet close, it kind of smells outdated in 2024/5, I'm not talking specifically about the Dua one but IA16 DNA overall. Now I'm more fond of Ysl Y Edp, Dior Homme Cologne, Roja Elysium, BDC Parfum, Nautica Voyage, MM Ocean Noir and so on. However ik few of them might be since before/around 2016 but my point is, it's not as timeless or great anymore to stay in my top freshies list given my nose has smelled all these new scents atp. It just feels basic now, I understand when it came out it was awesome but not anymore and hence I was disappointed. Heck even Hawas Ice smells and performs better than this 🥲 idk what else to say atp it's just an okay (altho great to others and not me anymore) aquatic freshie which I'd pick 10 others before picking this one. Yet this scent in itself is super good 8.5/10 for a summer freshie compliment monster. 🙂

When I wear this, It is usually after the gym for work or lounging. I am on my 3rd bottle. I spray on my chest because, the violet leaf in the dry down, is a bit much. It gets no compliments. It is sweet, floral and unapologetically loud and well, I just do not care. Actually nobody cares. This juice is not offensive, it is just a semi-beast. One two sprays is enough for 6-8 hours. Summers best. I am not that Italian guy in the suit, with perfect hair, opening the Maserati for my date. I am older, the bald Italian, with the old Audi, washing dishes in a restaurant, paying the bills and smoking cigars on my day off. Dua Hidden Gem(V..R. Antidote) is another loud banger. Smells like juicy fruit gum and hairspray to me.
