Which Should You Buy?
The Fragrance World UK's £4.95/30ml interpretation of Paco Rabanne Invictus (2013) - the pyramid maps the original's grapefruit opening, bay leaf heart, and guaiac wood dry-down. Liverpool dupe-house pricing on a recognisable smell-alike for casual rotation.
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Paco Rabanne's Invictus (2013) - the Veronique Nyberg, Anne Flipo, Olivier Polge and Dominique Ropion grapefruit-marine-ambergris composition that became Rabanne's sport-masculine flagship, here translated into a grapefruit-marine opening over bay leaf and a ambergris-guaiac close. Honest dupe-fidelity for sport and casual wear at a fraction of the designer price.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The grapefruit-led opening and guaiac wood-anchored close mirror the original's seasonal range, though the budget composition fades faster than the Paco Rabanne bottle in heavier conditions.
Occasions
A budget interpretation that keeps the original's structure - the dupe reads cleaner and shorter, making it best suited to casual rotation rather than as a replacement for the Paco Rabanne signature.
Seasons
Marine-citrus-amber sport structure peaks in spring and summer; autumn carries. Winter off-season.
Occasions
Built for sport, casual, office, and warm-weather date; less suited to formal evening.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Citrus, Woody, Aromatic accords and Grapefruit, Aquatic notes
