Our Verdict

Invictus and Victorioso are strikingly similar, with Victorioso being a very close dupe. The key difference lies in the price point and possibly performance. Invictus offers a more refined and well-established marine-citrus experience, while Victorioso provides a budget-friendly alternative. However, longevity reports on Victorioso are mixed. If you're after the Invictus scent profile without the designer price tag and don't mind potentially sacrificing some longevity, Victorioso is a solid choice. Otherwise, stick with the original Invictus for guaranteed performance.

Our Verdict - Victorioso EDP
This Invictus dupe is a bit of a mixed bag; some reckon it's a spot-on clone with cracking performance for the price, others find it lacking. Expect a blast of fresh, clean blue fragrance, but don't be shocked if the longevity doesn't quite hit the mark for everyone.
