Roma starts off very sweet and with an undertone of mineral oil and violet leaf. That aspect isn’t something that I’m personally too keen on. I actually prefer Invictus in that regard. It’s attractive in its freshness, meaning, it should draw complements but I really wouldn’t say that it’s particularly sexy. For a guy in his 20s, this will be a solid go to in these scenarios. Not overall amazing, but a nice all around fragrance. I love the yuzu, the oud isn’t too bothersome, but the end is just to marine for my taste. When it is covered by other notes, it works better.

It has aquatic notes, but this doesn’t feel quite as oceanic. Hawas has a nice amber note, a bit more of a soapy quality, and the sweetness isn’t as pronounced in the beginning.Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication. The drydown is fresh and clean with notes of: melon, lavender, and tonka bean. Doesn’t have the oceanic notes of the Paco Rabanne, but gives you the fruitiness and some light amber with peppery spice. Read my full review. JIMMY CHOO Man Intense Eau De Toilette, Fougere Oriental Woody, 3.3 fl. oz. – Man Intense starts off smelling quite a bit like Invictus and the original Jimmy Choo Man. Then, it does develop its own personality distinct from those two, while remaining in the same ballpark. Oh, and it smells better than both. Milton Lloyd Fame & Glory x2 by Milton Lloyd – If you’re looking for a cheaper option to smell close to Invictus, Fame & Glory by Milton Lloyd, should fit the bill. Milton Lloyd fragrances, do generally, hit the mark of the colognes that they are inspired by.

The main difference in terms of smell, is that, Wanted is spicier and woodier in its presentation. The lemon note also seems sharper. Cardamom, to my nose, is the ingredient responsible for most of the distinction between these scents. The opening of Invictus Aqua is dominated by fresh yuzu and marine notes. The opening is actually my favorite part of this cologne and the citrus aroma is further enhanced by the inclusion of grapefruit. With Legend spirit you start off with grapefruit and an aquatic accord, much the same as Invictus. With this one, you also get a nice dose of pink pepper and cardamom.

Indications

Uomo Born in Roma by Valentino– This was a fragrance which really reminded me of the Invictus line, in terms of smell and style. It’s not an exact copy, by any means, but the opening act really does favor what we’re looking for. Rasasi Hawas for Men EDP – Eau De Parfum 100ML (3.4 oz) – Not exactly a match, nor is it an exact Invictus Aqua aroma. Hawas for Men, is like a brother to those fragrances, with its own distinct personality.

I’m not always a huge fan of aquatics, especially when it turns to pure sea water. Invictus Aqua is exactly that, deep into the wear. It’s really not my favorite part. This is a warmer scent, that has more spice and musk/woody base, with less citrus than the Paco Rabanne offerings. It feels more wearable for an older guy, than the often times too youthful, Invictus. Legend Spirit Review As it dries down, I get more violet leaf, less of the marine notes, and the intro of the guaiac wood. It definitely grows into a woodier fragrance, with a slight outdoorsy dirtiness to it. The oud isn’t super powerful, but you’ll notice it, when putting your nose close to the skin. Azzaro Wanted Eau De Toilette Spray, 3.4 Ounce – Azzaro Wanted does often get compared to Invictus, as they do have plenty of similarities. They are not, however, the same. Just colognes with a close style and which go after the same market. Aqua is highly fresh, a sporty aquatic, with some slight soapy vibes to it. The marine notes add the aquatic element to this fragrance and they are further paired with ambergris for further saltiness.Beyond that, the pink pepper note, really helps to set Aqua apart from the other offerings in the Invictus lineup. I’m a fan of pink pepper, as it’s such an underrated note, and has helped propel cheapies like Guess Seductiveto its far and wide use. Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health. Overall, do I like Invictus Aqua? I do. I think that it is a very good scent for what it is. I’m not looking to buy a bottle personally, since I’m not a huge fan of the Invictus line, but for those who are this is a worthy addition. However, Invictus Aqua never strikes me as being quite to the level of saltiness, in Bvlgari’s Aqva. It also seems a bit more mature than the original Invictus, while still retaining that similar DNA structure. Aqua isn’t nearly as sweet. Before we get into my review, let’s see what Paco Rabanne has to say about Invictus Aqua: a luminous variation with a fresh woody signature: a refreshing marine top note mixed with sparkling yuzu accents. The sensual guaiac wood base note is reinforced by vibrant pink pepper.
