@@drummeboy9 there is a review on youtube and someone left a comment saying it’s not as strong as the 2016. But at least according to what I’ve heard the scent is the same. Can’t wait to get myself a bottle, sadly never tested the 2016 but love the 2018, and if what I’ve heard is true the 2016 is said to be even better.
@@AndreasHamberg I sampled the 2016 version back in 2018 and was obsessed with it, I then mistakenly bought the 2018 version thinking it would be the same thing. The 2018 was still nice but felt like a cheap clone of the 2016, so if this 2024 version is anything like the original you are going to love it for sure. Just ordered my bottle!
I own several bottles of the 2016. Once I small the 2018 in a departement store and to my nose both were very similar. I cannot comment on longevity. If this 2024 has the same longevity, I will be getting many backups of the 2024 released.
For anyone wondering about the performance of Invictus Aqua 2024... The fragrance is brand new, production in March 2024, so it has a big chance of getting stronger with maceration. Atm I can smell it up close on skin for at least 6hrs and faintly on clothes the next day. Give it a couple of sprays when you get your bottle, then let it sit on the shelf for a month or so. Same thing happened to me with Hawas. I could hardly smell it after 7 sprays the first wearing. Let it sit a few weeks and then BOOM 2 SPRAYS was more than enough. The fragrance itself is delightful. Smells sweet and salty clean, like freshy laundered sheets blowing in the sea breeze. 🌊
@@junkies1111 with how Dior Homme Parfum and La Nuit Bleu Electrique aren’t discontinued and still demand a premium due to not being available everywhere, you’re definitely right on that 😔
Just seen an advert for Invictus Aqua and came onto YT to see if it’s similar to 2016. This new video was sitting right at the top of my feed 😀 didn’t disappoint Chris
Tom Ford Costa Azzurra Parfum is an absolute beast. I love the smell. That Cypress and Lemon with a hint of Saltiness. Just 🔥 I'm looking forward to picking up a bottle of 2024 Invictus Aqua. I enjoyed the 2016 & 2018 variants.
I like Hauls! Definitely the sprayer should be align to the label, accidents can happen... 🤦 Those Atelier des Ors sound great, need to get a sample. Costa Azurra is great! Not a fan of Invictus but I'm glad they release it for the fans. Thanks for the video Chris!!!
I bought 2 bottles last week as it's silly cheap with the 15% percent off first time purchasing from the site once you sign up for their newsletter and get a confirmation email with the said code... works out £68 each... such a bargain and yes the batch code indicates it was only manufactured in march of this year so will need s few months to sit and mature once aerated
I also bought 2 as well with 15% off and some additional freebees I'm going to keep one for myself then maybe sell the other and make my money back on. Hoping it is just going to be limited release
@@Snedz496 noooooooo don't do it.... you will regret it, especially as everyone that is interested will know it's been re-released on a limited run... when it gets discontinued and you can't get it again you will wish you hadn't sold it. it's the one scent i wish i had bought a back up before it was originally discontinued, so wouldn't make that mistake again lol
This might be a hot take, but I actually preferred the 2018 version of Invictus Aqua to the 2016 version. I always saw it is an improvement. 2016 was far too sweet and too close to the original Invictus. 2018 was more refined.
@@Rachiid1 yes it's quite good performance for a fresh/aquatic fragrance. Performance hasn't reduced over time at all. I have 2018 version also, but 2016 is definitely better in performance. Also the 2018 version smells very different.
The prices for Atelier Des Ors fragrances are too high for my taste, around 250 Euro's and I think I can get better fragrances for that amount but that's my opinion
If paco rabanne really cared about giving the fragrance community back the original 2016 invictus Aqua! Then it would have been available in the USA 🇺🇸 and wouldn't be a limited edition! Lol lol lol 🤣 😀
5:20 100% agree I also cannot spray a perfume if the sprayer isn’t aligned to the label
I'm exactly the same!!
Im the same.
LOL I thought I was the only one who has OCD about that.
its common sense, because who wants to spray a perfume against a wall
You didn't let me down chris! Thanks for doing the invictus aqua 2024 video, appreciated.
Yes please more comparisons on the Aqua good sir!
Love to hear a more in depth comparison between the 2024 vs 2016, especially the performance differences, which is said to be noticeable.
Where've you read that there's a performance difference? (Not doubting you)

5:11 haha You are not the only one who thinks like that! Don't believe they are assembled by hand. 😕 Picky aren't we? 😆😁
Yes they should be lined up with the sprayer and label. Really like your take on these. Always enjoy ur vids
I never expected a designer perfume brand to bring back a discontinued perfume 😮 Well done Paco Rabane 👍
But it's limited and not available everywhere. What's the point of bringing it back 😅
@@junkies1111 with how Dior Homme Parfum and La Nuit Bleu Electrique aren’t discontinued and still demand a premium due to not being available everywhere, you’re definitely right on that 😔
Great 👍 fragrances haul Chris . Can you do comparison video with both new Invictus Aqua and old Invictus Aqua 👍
Just seen an advert for Invictus Aqua and came onto YT to see if it’s similar to 2016. This new video was sitting right at the top of my feed 😀 didn’t disappoint Chris
Chris - random question, is it yourself as the voice of Jet2 on the flights? 😂
I too align the sprayer with the label to spray. Sure it doesn’t matter, but right is right👍🏻
Great haul video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed day
Riviera Azuli is just 🔥🔥🔥
Yes, Chris! The sprayer has to line up!! 😂
Tom Ford Costa Azzurra Parfum is an absolute beast. I love the smell. That Cypress and Lemon with a hint of Saltiness. Just 🔥
I'm looking forward to picking up a bottle of 2024 Invictus Aqua. I enjoyed the 2016 & 2018 variants.
Hi Chris definitely need a full in depth review on Invictus Aqua 2024. I'm in the US and hoping it is released here why wouldn't they?
Yes ! It drives me crazy not to see the sprayer lined up. 😅 I can't spray if it's not.
Thanks for the "Invictus Aqua" review. I love this range.
I'm the same with the sprayers. Always turn the sprayer to the front 😂
I need to get that Costa Azzurra! Especially if it's less marine.
In general, costa azzura is a great gentlemenly dna
I really enjoy Costa azzurra parfum during the summer. The heat really brings the best out of this fragrance
I wish Joop would bring out the "nightflight* again....🤫
I like Hauls! Definitely the sprayer should be align to the label, accidents can happen... 🤦 Those Atelier des Ors sound great, need to get a sample. Costa Azurra is great! Not a fan of Invictus but I'm glad they release it for the fans. Thanks for the video Chris!!!
I would like a video to compare performance, i will receive my bottles in 2 days !
Chris looking jacked :D the biceps is popping.
Nice fragrance haul Chris
Got any tips on fitting laminate stairs clad ?
I’m sure you’ll find something out there on UA-cam 😉
The sprayer MUST line up. Always!
Versace Eros energy can’t wait
I am actually wearing Costa Azzurra parfum today, still love the Aqua the most tho.
Are you showing off your new watch ?is that a Tissot? Looks great
Looking forward to a comparison of the new and old bottle chris. Thank you hehe hopefully it will be available at the US for the summer. 🙌
It's not just you... I always align the sprayer too😂

Agree with the sprayer needing to be lined up, maybe OCD lol but has to be done!
what's your thoughts on Riviera Sunrise from Atelier de Ors?
You should the new Acqua di gio 2024 edition bottle!!
Appreciate the impressions Chris!
Thank you Chris.
When will invictus aqua 2024 be released in Europe?
It is in Europa
@@gtiak274 yeah I looked up and not in all countries. For example in Italy its not released.
thanks Chris ! bring on the summer ... and you're welcome for the little geography lesson😆
Haha cheers Nick 😎
They better mass release invictus aqua
This might be a hot take, but I actually preferred the 2018 version of Invictus Aqua to the 2016 version. I always saw it is an improvement. 2016 was far too sweet and too close to the original Invictus. 2018 was more refined.
The 2024 Invictus Aqua is exakt the 2016 Version. But to New... the bottle is one month old and must mazarate 😍🔥
Love it 😍
The gold flakes cost 5USD max
May I ask, is your juice from 2016 still as good as it was 8 years ago ? If yes how did you keep it ?
My 2016 bottle smells great still.
@@steveparadox1 really ? And the performance still there ?
@@Rachiid1 yes it's quite good performance for a fresh/aquatic fragrance. Performance hasn't reduced over time at all. I have 2018 version also, but 2016 is definitely better in performance. Also the 2018 version smells very different.
@@steveparadox1 good ! I'm happy to hear that given I've bought quite a lot of fragrances in the last 18 months. How did you store it Steve ? (Thanks)
@@Rachiid1 are you going to buy aqua 2016? I'm debating whether to get the new 2024 version. My only concern is the performance.
Please do a comparison that the people know it is the 2016 version and don't must pay so much money on ebay...
Free bottles aways get great reviews.
The prices for Atelier Des Ors fragrances are too high for my taste, around 250 Euro's and I think I can get better fragrances for that amount but that's my opinion
Also Nida is the name of my twin hahaha
Spray bottles should definitely have the atomizer facing front anything else is blasphemy
😂😂😂
Can you time stamp your videos please. I'd be more inclined to watch them that way. Skip to the main bit I'm interested in.. Cheers
🤣 😂 All the eBay con-artist are nervous. They are praying Aqua doesn't hit the States.
Fragrancebuy here I come 😈
If paco rabanne really cared about giving the fragrance community back the original 2016 invictus Aqua! Then it would have been available in the USA 🇺🇸 and wouldn't be a limited edition! Lol lol lol 🤣 😀
You can't have everything. There's fragrances we can't get here in the UK.
Ahhhhh the old summer fragrances haul…. That aren’t summer fragrances.
