The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2025, Invictus Aqua 2025 by Rabanne is an aquatic fragrance crafted by perfumers Juliette Karagueuzoglou and Nicolas Beaulieu. The composition opens with a fresh burst of grapefruit before diving into the heart of marine notes that evoke the invigorating essence of the sea. It settles into a warm, enveloping base of amberwood, creating a harmonious balance between freshness and depth.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays initially; the grapefruit top note is bright and short-lived but gives way to a lasting marine accord and warm amberwood. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than filling a room, making it perfect for daytime wear.
