Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Athens Eau de Parfum
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Paco Rabanne Invictus (2013) - grapefruit, bay leaf and guaiac wood translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
Our Verdict - Invictus Eau de Parfum
The Essence Vault's interpretation of Paco Rabanne's Invictus (2013) - Veronique Nyberg, Anne Flipo, Olivier Polge and Dominique Ropion's grapefruit-marine-ambergris signature, here translated into a budget reading with the grapefruit-marine-ambergris spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for sport and casual wear.
