Invictus Platinum, the new Eau de Parfum by Paco Rabanne. Since 2013, Paco Rabanne has been offering the image of an unbeaten hero: Invictus. When he decides to conquer the world, he channels his strength toward the heavens and makes the storm rumble, even if it means shaking the entire world. Yet it is precisely this force that has conquered men in every corner of the world.
At the start of 2022, the house of Paco Rabanne decided to bring back into the spotlight one of the most epic and famous duos in perfumery: Invictus and Olympéa. Thus, the brand's two best-sellers are declined into new variations. For men, Invictus Platinum still embodies the image of an unbeaten hero. However, it becomes more powerful than ever and now offers a new winning surge. Its scent invites the wearer to challenge greater achievements. It is a concentrate of motivation. Here is a breakdown of its composition.
The sharp, bitter opening of Invictus Platinum by Paco Rabanne
The man who wears Invictus Platinum by Paco Rabanne fears nothing and never gives up. He needs to find more energy every day to keep himself galvanized. This also comes through his fragrance. Invictus Platinum by Paco Rabanne is a highly energizing men's fragrance, and this is felt from its top notes. To give it an indomitable fire, Paco Rabanne chose to focus on citrus, and more specifically on grapefruit. This zesty citrus fruit gives this fragrance a genuine surge of freshness, while pairing with a more unexpected breath of absinthe. Slightly bitter and green, this raw material is originally a perennial plant with a very powerful scent, known for its insect-repellent properties. Here, it immediately gives this creation a strong personality.
The aromatic, minty heart of Invictus Platinum
At its heart, Invictus Platinum by Paco Rabanne is built around a great classic of masculine perfumery, already used in some of its predecessors: lavender. The flower most commonly used in men's fragrances, it smells of summer and the south of France. Relaxing and slightly vintage, it is also highly valued by perfumers for its finesse and olfactory richness. Indeed, lavender can appear by turns light or more fruity. Here, it is paired with the intense freshness of mint. Through the addition of this raw material, Invictus Platinum by Paco Rabanne becomes a fiery and powerful fragrance, while remaining ideal for hot summer days. Never heady, it is a true jolt of energy in men's daily lives.
The woody virility of Invictus Platinum
Finally, in its base notes, Invictus Platinum by Paco Rabanne gains in longevity. It incorporates two woods of remarkable tenacity into its base. Cypress recalls the Mediterranean scent of lavender. By turns fresh, woody or aromatic, it creates a genuine olfactory continuity in this men's fragrance. Camphoraceous and highly invigorating, it never lacks bite, while also being known for its energizing properties in aromatherapy. Here, it is paired with the emblematic patchouli, one of the raw materials most widely used by perfumers. This ingredient gives real depth to this fragrance. Deploying by turns a woody, earthy, dark or damp breath, it alone evokes the different facets of masculine personality.
