Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Invictus Aqua EDT
Divisive yet undeniably popular, the 2016 Invictus Aqua is either the summer king or an overpriced, synthetic mess. Its legendary status is cemented by its fierce fan base and inflated prices, with many chasing that elusive original batch.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Ruthless Aqua EDP
A simple, effective budget take on Rabanne's limited Invictus Aqua 2024, matching the grapefruit-marine-amberwood skeleton but with a shorter lifespan than the original's own middling performance.
